Thank you to Netgalley, Hodder & Stoughton, and Kerri Maniscalco for my arc of Kingdom of the Wicked in exchange for an honest review.

Synopsis: Set against a 19th century italian backdrop, witches live secretly among humans. Vitoria and Emilia are twin sisters, from a long line of witches, their family run a beautiful italian restaurant in Sicily hiding who they are from the humans around them. All their lives the twins have been warned against the risks of the Wicked, Prince's of Hell with kisses which can leave you bewitched and eyes that draw you in to steal your very soul, but they've never truly believed their Nonna's warnings. But when Emilia finds her twin's desiccated body and ends up summoning a prince of hell she has no choice but to believe that all the stories are real.

5 super bewitching stars to this! I was highly anticipating it anyway on account of my love for Kerri's Stalking Jack the Ripper series, but Kingdom of the Wicked just blew me away. I don't really like witch stories usually but Kerri brought something brand new and enticing to the story, I loved the Hades & Persephone vibes, I loved the Strega, I loved the different princes of hell and I adored the descriptions of Italian food which took me right back to fond memories of holidays in beautiful Italy. Emilia was a great character and I loved the tension and flirting between her and Wrath, dark romance is my thing and this was just perfect. All I can really say is READ THIS BOOK you won't regret it!!
