Like a caged animal who has been provoked one too many times, he strikes out when you least expect it.Įmilia is the polar opposite in that she is all light and goodness, yet she’s no pushover. Vicious is just that–he’s vicious, he’s cruel, he’s fierce, and he’s a force to be reckoned with. Even ten years later, there is so much animosity and pent up lust, Vicious and Emilia are absolutely explosive when they finally get together. One minute there’s so much animosity and acrimony, but then in next breath, there is a protective fierceness that comes out of nowhere.Īs the blurb says, “love and hate are the same feelings experienced under different circumstances” and that sentiment could not be more true with these two. The relationship between Vicious and Emilia is so hard to explain with words.
Fast forward ten years and he comes barreling back into her life only to turn it upside down once again. When Emilia makes the mistake of dating Vicious’ friend, he dials up the torture and gives her a heartbreaking ultimatum. Vicious and his friends make Emilia’s life a living hell for their entire senior year. Baron “Vicious” Spencer is the king of the high school, while Emilia is the quirky outcast. Spanning the course of a decade, we follow Vicious and Emilia through their tumultuous and sometimes toxic relationship. It’s a fantastic enemies-to-lovers/revenge/redemption story that’s complex, yet perfectly tied together, and I could not have loved it more. The strength of the writing, the depth of the characters, and the intense emotions from start to finish were enough to do both my heart and my head in. It smacked me in the face, knocked me off my feet, and completely blew me away. I thought I knew what I was getting into when I started reading Vicious, but I was wholly unprepared for what I got.
