Vicious by L.J. Shen
4.5
challenging emotional reflective tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Another book from my A-Z I am trying to get through so I can start the new one for 2025. I enjoyed this book but I felt like Vicious did not grovel nearly as much as he should have. Also I felt like Dean got the rough end of the deal but hoping his book will explain more.

I know I was supposed to hate Vicious and I did at points but I also felt for what he went through. These 2 were so oblivious to their connection and they should have realized when they were younger. I gave this book 4.5 ⭐️ and 2.5 🌶️ some of the office scenes were 🥵. I enjoyed the ending and look forward to seeing them in the other books.

If you like books by this author this does not disappoint plus it has some good banter and starts as a bully romance but builds.

Happy reading everyone 📚
