Frequently Asked Questions About the King of Wrath Series: Who is the Author of the King of Wrath Series?

I was disappointed by the fact that Vivian’s father never apologizes to her or even admits that what he did was wrong. But I love how Dante handles him and I love that she finally stands up to him. The main characters in this book have explosive chemistry and things get pretty steamy. If these problems were solved and the transitions of the main characters were better developed, the story would be better - it still feels like an incomplete story to me. The use of opposing points of view where each one's view of the other could turn the plot better, hiding and revealing the truths better by showinng the plot, which should more exciting than just describing what happens. Ana Huang definitely has a formulaic writing style. Her heroines are always hardworking, self sufficient and loyal with their own personal hardships to overcome. The heros are always the best at what they do, a bit emotionally stunted and skeptical about love. With a crucial CEO vote looming and a media empire at stake, the billionaire heir can’t afford the distraction she brings.The main character is arrogant, spoiled, classist, immature, rude and unpalatable. He is no Mr. Darcy, although he considers himself "royalty" and is just as arrogant, he belittles the h. too much. Nor much less an anti-hero; a Mr. Gray, however cliché, behind his billions and amorality, is still obsessed with Ana and this redeems him and makes him passionate. H is an incomplete being, cold, with no real friends, who uses others and likes no one. He sees himself as superior to her and her brother - who advances better as a character than the older brother - and every time he is contradicted, even though he is morally wrong, he takes revenge and destroys people. Period. Even if in the end he regrets having used and dumped her and tries to win her over, he is not convincing because his love turnaround is abrupt and inconsistent because he remains the arrogant jerk he has always been. The scene of the first time they get together is strong, but there is no emotion involved, it is the desire that any man would show for any woman in his bed, a commodity, what she has really become, a woman who all the time he wants to get rid of and who he is neither attracted to nor respects. There are no more intimate scenes between them, and no opportunity to see sex become love. Apart from his wealth, his penthouse full of artwork, his last name and traditional family, he is nothing as a human being. Despite Dante’s initial reluctance to the arranged marriage to Vivian, he couldn’t help developing feelings for her. One of my favorite things in a book is when the male lead (i.e. Dante) refuses to like the female lead (Vivian) , but then little things like her talking to other men and seeing her laugh with them or other little things she says suddenly start to become an obsession to the male lead. Dante couldn’t help but in my opinion feel jealous when he saw Vivian genuinely laugh with other men such as, with Kai (Dante’s friend) or how Vivian joked about having a list of men she would wish to marry, Dante immediately got annoyed/ lowkey upset she even had a list. The little things over the course of the book highlighted just how much Dante became obsessed and enamored with Vivian. Reserved, controlled, and proper to a fault, Kai Young has neither the time nor inclination for chaos—and Isabella, with her purple hair and inappropriate jokes, is chaos personified. All the books in the King of Wrath series, however, can be read as standalone novels. Can I Read the King of Wrath Series on Kindle Unlimited? With each of Ana’s books, I form attachments to each of the characters as well as fall in love with them. Vivian and Dante were no different and I admired their strengths and personalities. Vivian was strong and independent in her own right, despite being a jewelry heiress, she paved the way for her financial support and business. Vivian may have always put on a facade of being the perfect daughter when it came to her family, but when she was with Dante, he unleashed some part of her that was raw and passionate unlike anything she’d ever really experienced before. Dante, exuded power in himself, and was able to command a room with a presence that was magnetizing. In addition, Dante wasn’t entirely perfect, he had a darkness to him that when revealed showed just how much of a threat he was when provoked, plus he was that morally gray character that despite some potential red flags, you couldn’t help but love him for it.

Isabella is everything he shouldn’t want, but with every look and every touch, he’s tempted to break all his rules…and claim her as his own. Yes!

But what I think hinders the narrative the most is the fact that her father forced their engagement in such a vile way: there is no way to redeem this father, there is no way for a man - even one as unworthy of her as this one - to admire a woman who submits to a father like this, there is no way to forgive without understanding what traditional value this was, and that in fact, in the narrative, it was nothing at all, just deranged ambition. There is no happy ending like that. Did its main characters, Vivian and Dante, feel kinda like Ava and Alex from Twisted Love version 2.0? I'm still loving the way Kings of Sin is interlinking with the Twisted series characters (ugh the cameos! I heart them so much), and while I don't feel the same pull towards the friendgroups in this series as I did to the friends in Twisted, it's only the first book so I'll have to wait and see if that changes. But she can’t deny that, beneath his cool exterior, is a man who could make her melt with just a touch.
