He had everything he could’ve wanted…except her.

Dangerous. Powerful. Reclusive.

Vuk Markovic is notorious for shunning human interactions. The scarred billionaire rarely talks, and he has no interest in relationships outside his small but trusted circle.

His only exception? Her. The beauty to his beast, the object of his obsession.

He saw her first. He wanted her first. But now, she’s engaged to his oldest friend—and the closer the wedding looms, the more he’s torn between loyalty and desire.

She should be his…and he might just risk it all to have her.

***

Beautiful. Successful. Glamorous.

To the world, supermodel Ayana Kidane leads the perfect life. Her career has skyrocketed, and she’s engaged to one of New York’s most eligible bachelors.

What people don't know is that the engagement is only a business arrangement. He gets his inheritance when they marry; she gets the money she needs to leave her abusive agency.

Pretending to be in love should be easy—until she finds herself increasingly drawn to her fiancé’s enigmatic best man.

Vuk thrills and terrifies her in equal measure. She knows she should stay away, but when her wedding is thrown into chaos, he’s the only person she finds comfort in…

Until his past catches up with them and threatens everything they love.

King of Envy is a steamy billionaire romance featuring a morally gray hero. It's book five in the Kings of Sin series but can be read as a standalone.

Heart-Pounding Romance and Tension
4 out of 5 stars
Heart-Pounding Romance and Tension
The color green is commonly associated with envy, a connection that dates back to ancient times when it was linked to sickness and jealousy. It’s fascinating how colors can evoke such strong emotions and meanings, isn’t it? Enter Vuk Markovic, a billionaire consumed by jealousy for his best friend Jordan, who’s engaged to Ayana Kidane—the model who has captured Vuk’s heart since the moment he first laid eyes on her. He walks the fine line between right and wrong, driven by his own moral compass, and I was instantly captivated by him as he struggles with these intense feelings. When Vuk discovers that Jordan and Ayana’s marriage is merely a five-year arrangement for professional and personal gain, everything shifts. The chemistry between Vuk and Ayana is electric, and the pull they feel toward each other is so strong. This isn’t your average “will-they-or-won’t-they” story—it’s Ana freakin' Huang! She weaves jaw-dropping twists, features those irresistible “touch her and die” heroes, and creates a slow burn so intense that I found myself up at 1 a.m. whispering, "just one more chapter" (and then doing it again three times in one week, ahem). I was utterly hooked! While there are villains out to kill Vuk and a toxic company suffocating Ayana, it’s the stolen moments between them that truly gripped me. Their chemistry crackles, and their tension aches. Vuk is that dark, scarred (physically and emotionally) brooding heartthrob who will ruin you in the best way. I absolutely loved seeing him peel back his icy layers to reveal a hidden soft side, alongside Ayana’s journey to find her voice and fight for herself—and the man she falls hard for. “We fit in a way that is uniquely us—light and dark, sea and snow, flame and ice.” “King of Envy” is packed with beloved cameos, more suspense and chaos than usual, and some Easter eggs for the next book. Not sure what you’re waiting for. Read this! Or start the series.

    I was so excited for this one - Vuk had always been who I was the most curious about throughout this series, and while we didn’t know much about Ayana coming into this she is an incredible FMC! I adored this book and it is easily my favourite of the kings of sin series. Also, what an ending! 10/10 on the romance Mr. Markoviç

    Ana, you are truly back with this one. I will admit that I haven't loved the Kings of Sins series (besides King of Greed, I love a good grovel story), but this one was spot-on. It was well paced, a bit dark, and thoroughly enjoyable. I love how strong Ayana was, and how fast Yuk would burn the world down for her.

    You never really know someone until they let you in. It takes a very deep trust and, even then, they might not tell you all. Ana Huang writes very compelling and deep stories. She's a master story teller. Love her books.

    Started a bit slow but my goodness the story was chef’s kiss! A bit darker than Ana’s other stories but I’m all for it! Vuk is my type of book boyfriend, obsessed, strong and stabby at times lol. I love the convoluted story, it was great and the pacing was wonderful after the slow start.
    Spice is a 2.2/5🌶️’s.

    Has been a while since I felt the need to leave a review after reading a book, but this one just made me feel like I'm not ready to say goodbye to Ayane and Vuk.
    They were well constructed characters, with flaws and charms, sooo well matched together, it hurts! Not that I can imagine anyone being better for Ayane than Vuk, or the other way around.... but together they are better, they are the best version of themselves.
    I just wanted to say that I will remember their story for a long time! Book 5 just rekindled my obssession with Ana Huang!

    I had expectations, I really did, and they were high.
    But I didn’t expect them to be exceeded on all fronts. I LOVED this so much.
    I love Vuk, I love that he’s morally grey but he’s also intrinsically a great person and has a good heart, whether with his friend Jordan, with Shadow, with Ayana and her family, with his staff. He’s such a sweetheart.
    They are absolute heartthrobs, both of them 🤍

    I’ve read every book this woman has ever written and she just gets better and better!
    The dark side to this book is something I didn’t think I needed from Ana but boy did she prove me wrong!
    What a ride this book has been! I’ve waited an entire year for this book and the fact that I’ve read it in under 24 hours leaves me feeling a little sad I now am back to waiting for the next book.
    I always knew Vuk would be my favourite mysterious, dark and loveable character in this series, and he did not disappoint! Morally grey men are just my kind of bread and butter!
