I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.After getting a taste of how great Whitley and Gavin were together in Cruel Kiss, I couldn’t wait to find out what transpired after their fling in Puerto Rico. So I dove into Cruel King with the hope of satisfying my curiosity. It did not disappoint. In Cruel King Linde gave her readers a steamy, emotional and swoon worthy fake relationship and friends to lovers romance.Gavin and Whitley shared an undeniable connection three (3) years ago. However, Whitley's fear of being bad at relationships led to her moving to Los Angeles. A change in circumstances would see her returning to New York City forcing her to face her past and the man she ran from. Gavin, ever the playboy had no desire to settle down. However, after spending three years without his wingman he knew he wanted more than just one night stands. Whitley's return opened his eyes to his true feelings, if only he could convince her to give a relationship between them a chance. His plan, ask her to pose as his girlfriend for a wedding for a family member in Texas with the hope she would come to realise they were meant to be. Whitley agrees, but like all things that are built on lies his plan takes a disastrous turn.I went into Cruel King expecting a cute romance, but I got so much more. Prepare for a story that will tug on your heart in the best of ways and leaves you smiling at the end. Gavin and Whitley shared similar traits making them perfect for each other. They knew each other well and they accepted each other for who they were, quirks and all. Never once did they attempt to change each other. The chemistry between them lit up the pages. Anyone who knew them and saw them together could see how much they were into each other. However, as they failed to see what everyone else saw.I had fun revisiting this world and catching up with the characters from the previous books in this series. Characters from the author's Wright series also made a cameo appearance. A wonderful story of hope, love, friendship and second chances, Cruel King hit all the spots.
