This was a very fun book to read. I thoroughly enjoyed Kerri's Stalking Jack the Ripper series and the Kingdom of the Wicked is looking to be on the same path.

I loved the characters in this story. Emilia and Wrath were fun to read and has me even more intrigued to see them in the next book considering the how they have left off in the end of this book. I also liked how each of the Princes of Hell were introduced and how each embodied their sin. I also really liked Nonna Maria and am excited to learn more about her and the family history.
Speaking of family history, the story and lore were very interesting and quickly had me hooked. I want to more about what happened in the pasty with witched and demons and everything about the blood curse. I am excited to see more about the Wicked realm and met the remaining Princes. A part of me also hopes we will see her sister but I'm unsure how likely that will be in the forthcoming books.

I cannot wait to read the rest of this series. The fact that Kingdom of the Cursed is New Adult has me super excited. This book though was a good read and really sets up for the next book well.
I recommend this series to the fantasy romance readers out there.
