Book Synopsis:
Cunning. Sex. Pure nerve. Only this potent threesome can raise him
to his rightful place as ruler of Manhattan’s kink kingdom.
Bouncing from bed to bed on the Upper East Side—handsomely paid in both bills and blackmail fodder—Kingsley Edge is brilliant, beautiful and utterly debauched. No carnal act or chemical compound can relieve his self-destructive apathy—only Søren, the one person he loves without limit or regret. A man he can never have, but in whose hands Kingsley is reborn to attain even greater heights of sin. He plans to open the ultimate BDSM club: a dungeon playground for New York’s A-list that’ll change the scene forever.
My Review:
Tiffany Reisz’s writing is pure perfection. Her books are among my all-time favorites and The King was an absolute delight to read, from beginning to end. I have always loved Kingsley Edge so I couldn’t wait to read an entire book about him! And once again, the author completely captivated and enthralled me.
“He thought of nothing, remembered nothing, but felt everything.”
This book mainly tells the story of Kingsley’s relationship with Soren but there are plenty of other characters making an appearance in this book. Of course, I am addicted to Kingsley and Soren so their scenes together are completely mind-blowing and absolutely satisfying. This is a very adult and sophisticated book, the prose is gorgeous and the dialogue is pure genius.
Even though I though I know Kingsley’s story, the author provides plenty of delicious surprises along the way. I LOVED this book!!! It’s sexy, funny, incredibly dramatic and gut-wrenching and completely amazing. I did miss Nora, she is not really the focus of The King but she plays a pivotal role nonetheless. The focus here is on Kingsley and his story. I adored the author’s snappy banter, smart storyline and very topical themes.
“What’s your poison?” the bartender asked, and Kinglsey answered, “Blonds.”
The King is a must-read!! You will lose yourself in this book. I miss Kingsley already!
