INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
Kerri Maniscalco makes her adult debut with this New York Times bestselling sensation, a “hot” new standalone fantasy romance (Jennifer L. Armentrout) about a dark prince battling an impossible curse—and the artist who might be the only one who can set him free.
Sinner. Villain. Wicked.
The Prince of Envy has never claimed to be a saint. But when a cryptic note arrives, signaling the beginning of a deadly game, he knows it will take more than a hint of sin to win and save his falling demon court. Riddles, hexed objects, anonymous players, nothing will stand in his way, though none of his meticulous plans prepare him for her, the frustrating artist who ignites his sin like no other…
Virtuous. Darling. Liar.
The trouble with scoundrels and blackguards is that they haven’t a modicum of honor, a fact Miss Camilla Antonius learns after one desperate mistake allows Waverly Green’s most notorious rake to blackmail her. To avoid a ruinous scandal, Camilla is forced to enter a devil’s bargain with Envy, little expecting his game will awaken her true nature . . .
Together, Envy and Camilla must embark on a perilous journey through the Underworld—from glittering demon courts to the sultry vampire realm and beyond—while trying to avoid the most dangerous trap of all: falling in love.

Title: I will read ANYTHING Kerri Maniscalco writes 😍
Review: I don’t even know where to begin…I was SO excited to jump back into this world and I love that this world expands past what we know from the KOTW trilogy. I am eager to see more of this world as Kerri Maniscalco continues to write about these characters and locations.I was (still am) a 5-star fan of the KOTW trilogy so I was counting the days until this book came out! Jumping back into a new story with another of the sinfully delicious Princes, who could resist? I was stoked that we were getting Envy’s story as the first breakout book from the original series. I think it was really well done for people who didn’t read the KOTW books, and this being their first introduction. It gave you enough information to understand what came before without feeling like it was repeating every detail from the first 3 books. It also totally stands on its own feet as a standalone or separate series if she continues with Envy before moving onto the next Prince. You could start with this book and have no clue there was a trilogy that came before and was connected.I was super intrigued with this story. Wrath may always be Daddy for me, but he definitely has some competition with Envy now. Learning more about Envy and what drives him, his insecurities, his abilities, his unique personality, was beyond interesting. Being able to be inside his head, it was just fascinating. And Camilia’s character was perfect. I loved their banter and their relationship as it evolves throughout the book. She, herself, is a force to be reckoned with from the first time we meet her (even if she wears the persona of a meek woman because of her circumstances in the beginning). There was such a fire in her. It’s what made the enemies to lover’s trope work so well. They both had these walls up and they both were so stubborn and hardheaded that it made me want to throw my kindle across the room multiple times (in a good way! lol). Her special ____ (don’t want to spoil it for anyone who hasn’t read it yet) was so unique and special and unlike anything I’ve read so far. It was a super cool _____ to have, that held a lot of foreshadowing for what was to be revealed later in the book.Let’s not forget ‘THE GAME’, I love a good mystery, with riddles and intrigue. Where the stakes are high, and nothing comes easy or without a price. I think this plot was really fleshed out and I didn’t feel like any questions were left unanswered. It was also done in a way where you felt like you could read another whole book about these characters, and it wouldn’t be boring or uninspired. There world is so vast, and I think in this book especially you realize just how big it really is. The worldbuilding is beautifully done. Just as before, her descriptions really bring the place to life in your mind. The author doesn’t skimp on any details when describing the landscapes and lands. And in the background of the main plot there are so many pieces moving to set up however many more books she decides to write in this world next. I feel there were certain things left unresolved intentionally for the setup of more books. Trying to guess which Prince we will be getting a book next felt like a game in itself. Kerri leaves all these tid bits from each brother that every time you think you absolutely know who will be next you are left second guessing yourself, but by the end of the book I think I had it figured out. Only time will tell. 🤞🤞This is a new adult book so there is spice and “grown up” scenes and omg they are so good. Whenever a book has spice in it there is always the debate of whether it overpowered the plot, served the plot, or was just its own separate thing. In my opinion, the spice for sure served the plot. It wasn’t overwhelming and it didn’t feel like spice just for the sake of spice. The scenes were hot and heavy, descriptive, and put in at the most perfect times. For someone like me who loves dark romances, romantasy, spice, and such, this was *chefs kiss*. Just straight up yumminess.I have 0 complaints about this book. It will definitely be a part of my top reads this year and I 100% recommend it to everyone!

Title: This reminded me so much of Gena Showalter’s LOTU series
Review: 4.75 starsWhat I loved most about this book was how much world building that was done. It reminded so much of Gena Showalter’s LOTU series I loved that had so many layers like this story featuring Envy and Camilla. I was just so immersed in this world that I felt like I was truly there with Envy and Camilla as they went on this journey with them. Plus I enjoyed the locations, characters, and species that were in this story.I thought the plot was so utterly engaging. I was consumed by as I couldn’t step away for a single second because I needed to know what was going to happen next. This was action packed with lots of twists and turns along the way as Envy and Camilla play the Unseelie King’s game. It was wonderful.The whole Envy and Camilla romance was on another level. Though I did think it got sexual between them quicker than I wanted it to, I still enjoyed their dynamic as they “played” with one another. The heat between them was very, very real. It was spicy, yet at the same time the connection between them built along the way. There were plenty of moments of affection between them that I really enjoyed. It made me root for them even harder whenever they had those sweet moments between them. They were a great match for each other.There were a couple of things that I wasn’t totally vibing with. The first was the beginning, I just didn’t quite connect and I was a bit iffy about especially when things got over sexualized between them at first, however it did get better once they spent more time together. It was just a lot in the beginning. The second d thing, I thought the ending kind of dragged out a bit too long. This was already a long book so to stretch it more when I thought the end was already there was just a little bit much.Other than that I really loved it. It reminded me so much of other series that I have loved and adored in the past. It gave me such great vibes. I want more. I want to back in this world and these characters because there’s just so much more to be explored. I would revel in it. I’m officially hooked. I loved it so much.

Title: A good read
Review: I think I enjoyed this book more in the beginning. Sort of a Bridgerton mixed with fae. The world was intriguing, and I enjoyed the story for the most part. The characters and some of the game and history became a little hard to keep straight. The story fell slightly flat for me after a while, like nothing super exciting was happening. I did enjoy the banter which made me want the MMC and FMC together even more. The secrets they were keeping from us got a little boring after a while and honestly I wasn’t shocked to my socks when they were finally revealed. I hadn’t guessed them, I was just tired of waiting for them. I like that this book is something I could read in between series without feeling like I had to jump straight to the next one. B not sure about reading #2 yet, but I’m keeping it on my TBR for now. Overall I enjoyed the book. Just not UP there with some others for me.

Title: Prince Envy was perfection!
Review: 4.5 ⭐️This was so good! I read the Kingdom of The Wicked series last month (about Envy’s brother Wrath) which briefly introduced Envy, but I loved getting to know his character in this book. The tension between him & Camilla started out strong from the very beginning, & I loved their forced proximity and cat & mouse game throughout the story. Her character was perfect, as she was so independent and had big secrets of her own. I also couldn’t get enough of the snarky banter between Envy & his brothers! The spice in this one was spicyyyy & the heat kicked up pretty early on – definitely not a slow burn 😅 This was such a fun read with amazing characters and some great twists & turns. Loved it.

Review: Es un libro precioso. El dibujo de la portada es muy bonito, pero cuando quitas el cubre hay un dibujo de un lobo que simboliza la casa del protagonista, me parece un detalle precioso. Los libros de tapa dura, en general, me gustan mucho, pero las ilustraciones debajo de la cubierta me ganan por completo.En cuanto al libro en sí, a pesar de lo largo que es, se me hizo corto. La dinámica de los protagonistas me gustó mucho y creo que Envy ha llegado a gustarme más que Wrath. Me encantan los cameos de los demás hermanos en el libro, sobre todo poder ver otro lado de Sloth. En general, un libro recomendable si te gusta la fantasía y el romance
