Deviant King: Special Edition Print by Rina Kent

3.0

This was.. okay?
Although the pace was slower than I expected, it was still an addictive reading experience, even if the story only started to pick up near the end.

I actually liked Elsa and how her mind and inner monologue distinguished between her lust for Aiden and the cold facts of their past. She didn't easily forgive and forget, erasing herself the moment their relationship became more.

While I liked being in Elsa’s mind, I missed the dual povs. But, the ending helped me understand why it had to be in her pov only.

Connecting with the girls in the Legacy of Gods series has been challenging for me, what a pleasant surprise to actually enjoy the female leads so far.
(Not looking much forward for Silver and Nicole tbh tho)

Bully romances aren't typically my thing, and some parts weren't the most enjoyable to read, but by now I know what I’m getting into when picking up a Rina Kent book.

Weirdly, Elsa’s and Aiden’s connection felt a bit lacking.. idk if it's the fact that Aiden remained such a mystery or how their pasts clearly impact their relationship, consciously or not. I'm unsure how this is a trilogy, Rina must have something else up her sleeve because, so far, we've had a lot of filler chapters.

*The Rinaverse has its unique rating. Rina Stars carry their own nuanced meaning—too niche to be compared*
