Paradox A.R.T. | King of the Crown Imperials
With every book I release, I try to build an Advanced Readers Team (ART) to build buzz for the book and bring in early reviews upon the book’s launch. Below are some of the Paradox ART reviews for this book.
Several reviewers often post the same reviews on Amazon, Goodreads, and/or Bookbub, as well as on their social media feeds. Links on this page will often link to the social media post, if available. If not, it will link to the Amazon, Goodreads, or Bookbub review (in that order, depending on availability).

What a wonderful story! As I read, Vivienne’s prays and affirmations brought up issues from my own psyche. The story entertained me; the messages grounded me.

KING OF THE CROWN IMPERIALS -- When I was younger I read a lot of Biblical fiction, though I haven’t much lately. Hadassah (Esther) was a favorite. Her story and “for such a time as this” was one main lesson passed on to me by my mother. I adored how well this book fits into the description “Esther Biblical Fiction.” It embodies it.

"Who knows, Vivienne, if just like Esther, you came to this royal position for such a time as this?" The book's cover drew me to this story and I was not disappointed!

KING OF THE CROWN IMPERIALS -- It's such a beautiful, grace-filled story highlighting God's work in the lives of His children. Add to it the fact that it features a Queen Esther retelling coupled with the Royals and Fake Dating tropes, and this book had me picking it up every chance I could!

The world building is amazing and very complex. I appreciated the maps and pictures as it helped my imagination to understand a little more clearly. I thought it was very unique and helped immerse me in the story world the author created... This story is engrossing, filled with relatable characters who have had to endure horrible tragedies in their lives, yet still they press on.

I found myself surprised at certain times of what was woven into this book from Esther. Some of it didn't even click for quite a while because it was so subtle. But I loved all the aspects the author put into this story. If you love retellings and high stakes romance I highly suggest you pick this book soon.

KING OF THE CROWN IMPERIALS -- Though this one is set in the year 1993, the political unrest, intrigues and state conflicts in the story felt like a retelling of the present times. Its inspiration from the story of Queen Esther is also amazing, what a fantastic fusion!
