A review by astewey
Beautiful Fiend by Lola King
5.0
This book was 4.5 stars for me!
"I'll do it again, and again, as many times as I fu*king want until you know that there's not point fighting me anymore. Until you understand that what I want, I get. Always."
This story is about Caden King of the North Shore Kings and Billie Scott of the North Shore Crew (NSC). They're both part of the founding families of the rival gangs. Caden King is ruthless. Billie Scott has dreams of getting out of North Shores so she's equally ruthless in the MMA ring, literally fighting her way out of there. Cade and Billie have always been enemies.
This book gripped me and I couldn't put it down. I felt so many emotions with this book. I was angry, excited, disgusted, hopeful, heartbroken. The only reason this book wasn't a solid 5 for me was because I had some lingering questions throughout the book, but they were more just my weird brain wanting to know then anything truly important. I loved that at the beginning of the book there was a playlist, and every chapter had a song at the beginning if you wanted to experience the book that way. I had audible reactions throughout this book and was even in tears at the end. Like I said before, this book made me feel some things! This was my first time reading Lola King and I'll be looking into more of her books in the future. This is book 1 of 4 interconnected standalones.
Tropes/Content: MF, enemies to lovers, touch her and die, gangs, gang violence, murder, drugs, MMA, bully romance, standalone, non con, dub don, villain romance
