My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this romance. It is a very emotional read. This book had me laughing and crying and feeling really frustrated by Matthias and the way he treated Ava. He loves her and wants her but he treats her so badly that I just want to shake him and make him realise his mistakes.
Ava has been friends with Theo King for years. She gets on well with all the King brothers apart from Matthias. For some reason Matthias hates her and Ava has never known why. Until a snow storm leaves them stuck together for 2 days. During these 2 days secrets and feelings are uncovered that neither realised existed.

Fast forwards 5 years later and after Ava disappeared Matthias trys to move on with his life but forgetting about the only girl he has ever wanted isn’t going to be easy. When he returns because his father is dying he sees Ava again and all those old feelings resurface. But now there’s a even bigger problem. Ava has moved on and is now with another man. Matthias’s brother. How can he justify wanting a woman if having her breaks his brothers heart?
This is a story of passion, hidden feelings, love/hate relationships, and a lot of confusion and twisted stories which keeps this couple apart and separated.
Will they ever get it together? As secrets begin to be revealed and the actions of others are come to light can this couple now make it work?
There is so many things happing that neither Matthias or Ava are aware of but that keeps them apart. You find yourself screaming at them to wake up and see through people’s lies? I loved this romance. It was emotional and gripping. I couldn’t stop reading it.

This is the first book in a new series for this author. A second chance story that is full of attraction and a relationship worth fighting for. This is a well written story where the author used details to bring the characters to life and the world they live in. A story where two days trapped by a snow storm turns into more than ever expected. I enjoyed these characters and what they brought to the story. I enjoyed watching their growth as well as the off the charts chemistry that heats up the story. They are strong characters that keep the story engaging to the end. I found myself wanting to know what happens to them. I enjoyed reading this story and I highly recommend it. You don’t want to miss out on this one.

Matthias King has been in love with Ava since they were young. As the daughter of his father’s estate manager, Matthias’ father forbade him to ever reveal those feelings, to anyone. So instead, he chose cruelty. It was easier that way. In a snowstorm and alone, Ava makes her way to the King mansion for warmth and company. Two days alone with Matthias and only the housekeeper and grounds keeper, Ava finds that she has feelings for Matthias. And then the real story begins. This book was so intense and I highly recommend it!

Brilliant!
This standalone was really engaging. It’s a billionaire with a bit of bully romance. So many twists and turns that kept me on my toes. There’s family secrets, so much history, and drama. I found the characters easy to connect with and loved having each of their POV. The emotions throughout the book – I laughed, I sighed and I actually shed a tear or two. Definitely not one to miss. Highly recommend.

Cruel king is a great book with lots of heart. I loved everything about this book. Matthias was such a cruel person to Ava as they were growing up. Treated her as the help. She was / is the daughter of the help but Mr King never treated anyone any different. He saw Ava as the daughter he never had.
Ava and Theo, ( one of the younger brothers of Matthias ) were best friends. Like so close and did everything together. Ava always had a crush on Matthias and Matthias always had a crush on Ava but he was warned away from her. Matthias, being the eldest King son, had certain rules to abide by. One day during a severe snow storm, Ava walks up to the main house while Mr King and all the sons except Matthias have driven into the city and they get stuck there for two days. During those two days, Matthias and Ava get very close and have an amazing 2 days together which soon comes to an end.

Ava is sent to
Spend time with her Aunt and never looks back. Matthias and Ava don’t see eachother or speak for 5 long years. In those 5 years, he ends up hating her for leaving him without a word. He treats her so bad when when they see eachother again at the King mansion.
This book was so good. So many feelings and lots of heart and heat. A great 5 star read

I found this story absolutely riveting. I was totally surprised at the turn in brothers. I was going for the other brother. The chemistry between Ava and Mattias was *BOOM* electric!! The dislike he had for her and her determination to find out why he hated her kept me glued to this story. Absolutely engaging and intriguing, one cannot put this story down because you must know what’s going on like the nosy town gossip. You can’t miss a minute. So well-written and well-done, I loved it all from the characters to the storyline. Eleanor, the housekeeper, is my favorite and her eyeraising brow when she catches those moments. This is an absolute must read.

Ava

The King boys have been the center of my life for as long as I remember. Theo has been my best friend since I was four, and our families are as close as can be.

Except Matthias. The oldest King son never failed to look miserable whenever I was around, and every word out of his mouth to me was cruel.

Until a snowstorm trapped us in his house, and we shared two perfect days together.

That was five years ago. Now his father’s dying, and he’s back at the estate and more vicious than ever, as if our time together meant nothing to him.

I should hate him. I should be able to forget him now that I have a chance to be happy with someone else.

There’s just one problem. I can’t stop thinking about the man who stole my heart one snowy night all those years ago.

 

Matthias

She thinks I don’t remember our time together. She’s wrong. I’ve never forgotten.

Not when I moved to a different continent. Not when I didn’t hear from her for five years. Not even though I’ve tried my damnedest to forget her.

I want to hate her. I should. But I can’t. All I can do is look on with jealousy as Ava finds happiness with another man.

What do you do when the one person standing in the way of your happiness is your own brother?
