Another good installment in the Kings of Sin series. I thought this second chance romance was done well. I do wish there was a little more groveling. Also if a girl says she needs some space she needs SPACE. This book did pull on the heart strings. 

I thought the flashbacks to their relationship over the years was done well. The moments weren't long where you got bored but snippets to get to the point.

People are upset that Dom wasn’t groveling as much but to me it was the perfect amount plus I love seeing a man so in love with his wife that he can’t live his life once she leaves. He went out with his brother, Roman, who tried to kill Dom for trying to buy a bank, and drunk his sorrows away all because Ále lied to Dom that she would be on a date just so she won’t get back with him. If I was Ále the second Dom send me the thousands flowers I would’ve gotten back with him. IM WEAK COMPARED TO ÁLE!!! Dom even went to Brazil just cause Dante let it slip that Ále was going there and no one knows when she would come back. I also didn’t mind reading Ále becoming her own person after the divorce cause it shows the side of relationships where the person loses themselves in order for their partner to shine and it was amazing I loved reading it I didn’t even care if Dom wasn’t in the chapter I was genuinely enjoying this story. I loved reading small memories like their first date, their first meeting, etc. I loved every moment I sobbed reading them. I cried reading Dom’s backstory and why he became a work alcoholic but I loved seeing him change just for Ále. I LOVED IT!!!! I also enjoyed reading about Dominic’s dyslexia and how Ále handle it cause her little brother is the same as Dom and instead of judging him she helped Dom pass his English class so he can graduate it was a cute scene.

The spice scenes. What can I say about them? Steamy. Hot. Blushing worthy. Thank god I read this at home cause I would be red like a tomato if I read this out and about. Dominic is a hot sexy man who has a dirty mouth but still begged for Ále to stay with him, even let him take her out on a date, or even asking Ále to let him pursue her again it was EXCELLENT!!! I loved King of Greed more than King of Pride I haven’t read King of Wrath yet but I plan on doing so.

I would recommend this book to people, yes, I’ll cry doing so if I’m being honest. PLEASE READ THE BOOK!!!!!! The only thing I am disappointed about was the ending for Roman we don’t know what happened to him after the contract was leaked and I wished to know but overall I love this book too much to even take a quarter point off the rating.
