Heavy is the Crown: The Reign Edition: The Complete Immersive Experience by James E. Lorraine

DID NOT FINISH: 24%

---

This story is full of spice, with immediate tension between the characters—but I felt like I came in halfway through the story. There’s clearly a past between Ellie and James, but not enough backstory was included to ground their conflict, which made it hard to fully connect.

Ellie feels toxic and manipulative, while James seems emotionally bruised, but their deeper motivations aren’t fully explored. The heat is high, but I would’ve preferred more emotional depth and character development to balance it out.

I didn’t finish the book, but I can see it resonating with readers who enjoy steamy, intense stories with a dash of emotional chaos
