King of Pride (Kings of Sin #2) by Ana Huang Book Review

Title: King of Pride
Author: Ana Huang
Publisher: Piatkus Books
Release Date: April 27, 2023
Pages: 358

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.

With a crucial CEO vote looming and a media empire at stake, the billionaire heir can’t afford the distraction she brings.

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.

***

Bold, impulsive, and full of life, Isabella Valencia has never met a party she doesn’t like or a man she couldn’t charm...except for Kai Young.

It shouldn’t matter. He’s not her type—the man translates classics into Latin for fun, and his membership at the exclusive club where she bartends means he’s strictly off limits.

But she can’t deny that, beneath his cool exterior, is a man who could make her melt with just a touch.

No matter how hard they try, they can’t resist giving into their forbidden desires.

Even if it costs them everything.

Buy it on Barnes & Noble or Amazon  


My Thoughts

Isabella Valencia is bold (she has purple hair), the life of the party. Kai Young is the complete opposite, proper and about to become CEO. The chemistry between them though is undeniable.

And she looked so damn beautiful it made my heart stop for a second, just long enough to confirm she owned every beat.

They both know better than to get attached but some things are just destined by the universe. You know what they say about opposites attracting each other. They are so fun together and make each other better individuals but how long will it last?

I wish you could see yourself the way I see you. Smart. Strong. Beautiful. Imperfect by your own standards but so wonderfully perfect for me.

Star Rating: ★★★★☆ (4)

I don't necessarily believe opposite attract but OMG the chemistryyyy. Kai and Isabella just paired with each other so so well. He's smart, attractive, and grounded, just perfect for Isabella's wild heart. Every secret encounter between them just kept the tension building and building.

Overall, King of Pride was the perfect second book after King of Wrath. The chemistry was amazing and it was funny that Isabella was secretly rich too. I'm so excited for the next book!
