If he destroys her father’s company - what gave Vivian her place in society - wouldn’t he be destroying Vivian too? There’s a dramatic forbidden aspect to the romance given that Francis is the one blackmailing Dante, a fact that Dante struggles with as he falls for Vivian. Later on, though, as Dante spends more time with Vivian, he begins to fall in love. It’s clear what Dante needs from the agreement, and along the way Dante struggles to gather up enough material (and delete enough information) to free himself from the marriage, save his brother, and bring Lau Jewels down.

Right away, readers know that this is the inciting incident for Vivian and Dante’s relationship, one with extremely high stakes. To protect his brother, Dante must follow through with the proposed marriage. If news of the romance spreads to the mafia, Luca will be killed due to the forbidden dalliance. Vivian’s father Francis, the head of “new money” Lau Jewels, blackmails Dante to marry Vivian with evidence that Dante’s brother, Luca, is romancing a woman with ties to the mafia. It’s a twisted setup, even if this isn’t part of the Twisted series (get the joke?). The book chronicles the romance between Vivian Lau and Dante Russo, a jewelry heiress and an Italian billionaire CEO, respectively, who find themselves in an arranged marriage due to a business agreement. King of Wrath is Huang’s latest: the first book of Huang’s newest series Kings of Sin. Her Twisted series - and the passionate following it’s gained - is evidence of Huang’s writing capabilities and their widespread appeal. Romance lovers must know the name of Ana Huang, who has established a formidable online presence in the social media spheres.
