I got a chance to read and review the second book in a series by Sienna Snow. It has been a while since the first one, Dangerous King, was published in March so I definitely recommend you re-reading the synopsis or re-reading the first book if you can.
The plot and characters definitely grabbed me so I was looking forward to the conclusion. Here are my thoughts.

Vicious Prince by Sienna Snow Review
I really enjoy the characters in this story. There are strong female leads that are building massive businesses which I love. Plus, it’s refreshing to find couples that are both independent and successful separately.
I did have some difficulties with the story. I am sure this is going to be an unpopular review as it’s going against the norm.
However, in many instances it felt like the author was writing backwards. It’s hard to explain but there would be scenarios or conversations then afterwards was the explanation to tie everything together. Several times I found myself trying to figure out what was happening to only keep reading for the explanation. Frustrating!
I also had a difficult time with the characters. There seem to be so many of them I kept losing track of who was who. I also felt the main female character lacked emotion. The story at times seemed very one dimensional and nothing really phased her. Even with the big reveal she lacked emotion. I just had a hard time finding some of the deep feelings within them. Were they connected? Absolutely. The love ran deep, but there were times in the end I was looking for more.
Overall, this book and the series is intense, sexy, and intriguing. It was missing context and detail that would have made it so much better for my experience.
