Book Review: Throne of Secrets by Kerri Mansicalco (Prince of Sin #2)

Throne of Secrets (Prince of Sin, #2)Throne of Secrets by Kerri Maniscalco
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Alright, Prince Gluttony/Gabriel Axton, you are also one of my favorites.

Even though I was entirely focused on the ice dragons and why they would be attacking people all over the place and all that, I still enjoyed this book so much. In the beginning, though, Gabriel made me mad for what happened to Wrath (my mans didn't deserve it okay, he came back looking like he got into a fight with Flordia Man and lost), and he still does needs to pay his healing/hospital bills, but I DIGRESS. Before I get into an angry match with him, he still goes into my good graces.

So this one did have enemies to lovers, like spot-on fighting in the scandal papers, but when Gabriel decides that he wants to change Miss Adriana from a reporter to a romance columnist like Lady Whistledown, boy was Adriana pissed. But she did it anyway, and she started going to a club called the Seven Sins club to have a very lovely tryst with a mysterious stranger...who just so happens to be Gabriel himself...who announced that he was looking for a wife, so he was holding a Bachelor like competition to see who can become his princess.

I have since realized that I don't like Bachelor-like competition trials because I don't watch the show and it's very stupid, but somehow I enjoyed this one better than I did, and I now may want to read more books with this in it without me actually watching the show.

So how does the ice dragon situation fit in?

Well, the ice dragons are all acting very weird and we don't know why. One day they were cool with the hunts and they didn't hurt people. Minutes later they tweakin' and now they're attacking people left right and sideways and Gluttony doesn't even know why...but it turns out Adriana does, and it was because of a hexed object called the golden pen I believe, that started to make the ice dragons tweak as if they were on Monster Hunter, and once the pen was destroyed, the ice dragons were back to normal. For me, that was the meat of the story, because I started to wonder what happened to the ice dragons and why they were tweakin' like that.

All in all, a really good book but the Bachelor competition took me away from it, kind of. But I still enjoyed it, though!
