About this listen
He was dark and handsome. Charming, older, and rich.
She was the young and pretty girl, infatuated with a suave man who didn't exist.
After leaving home and burning her bridges, Shelby Ann was cocooned in the gloss of high society— the devil in a suit at her side. But beyond acquiring the skill and poise to pull off being a trophy wife, she would discover that all was not as it seemed.
With the honeymoon over, the dirt and grime seeped through the loving facade to reveal the monsters that laid beneath. Dark and depraved, this series will twist in ways you won't see coming, revealing an anti-hero in disguise, dirty deeds in plain sight, and shocking secrets that will leave you cringing inside.
Mature audiences only. RH as the series progresses. This novel is pitch black and extra spicy, check the frontmatter for a full list of possible TW.
**This audiobook is in duet style narration**

Four brooding men who make my worst nightmares seem tame. To the public, they are titled aristocrats with royal lineage. In secret, they make up the Lords of Darkness—an ancient order that rules the underbelly of England with a lethal, iron fist, leaving skeletons in their wake. And as fate would have it, my father was the fifth Lord of Darkness. His sudden death means I am now a Lady of Darkness.

I'm careful not to show my face, so why do I feel like I'm being watched when the camera turns off? No one should know who I am or be able to find me, but they do—and things quickly spiral out of control. The two unhinged men who fill my cam chat with all the deplorable things they want to do to me are closer than I think. To them, I'm just a pretty little tease. Their obsession turns into something so much more than I bargained for. I should have run away when they found me because now it's too late for me to be anything except theirs.

When Dad died, he made me the leader of the Italian Mafia. That position was unheard of for a woman—until me. Ryder, Dex, Gage, and Holden are my team, my closest friends. Then Leo waltzes into my life, turning it upside down, along with everyone in it. One lie. One secret. That's all it took to bring it all burning down around me. Jealousy and hidden desires from the four guys I thought only saw me as their friend and boss stoke the flames even higher.

Story
When you've been told your whole life that something is sinful, you have two options. Avoid it like the plague, like it has the power to destroy all that is good and pure. Or become as fixated upon it as Eve was upon that apple. I'm sick of the push-pull of terror and temptation. It's tearing me apart. I just want a bite of the apple. More than a bite. I want to devour it. Have its juices spill from my lips. And by apple, I, of course, mean sex.

Story
Fourteen years ago, I killed sixteen people and I'd do it again. Were you expecting something different? Did you think I would be remorseful? No. Each and every one of them deserved to die. Now, I'm back to reclaim what was always supposed to be mine and destroy everyone who has wronged me or her. Those who took her from me will pay with their lives and I'll smile like the psychopath I am as I deliver my own twisted form of justice. After all, it's Halloween. The craziest things happen on All Hallow's Eve.. Myers is a dark, taboo horror romance retelling of Michael Myers.

Story
As a single father, I often feel like the weight of the world sits on my shoulders. When my daughter’s nanny gives me her two weeks’ notice, I’m sweating bullets. Fear that my NHL season with the New England Bay Sharks could be derailed consumes me. Finding a replacement seems impossible when, suddenly, Maci McKenzie—a struggling author who’s running from some deep, dark secret in her past—steps into the picture. She needs a change of scenery to help her write, and I just need someone who isn’t a complete weirdo to watch my kid when I’m not around.

Story
I might be the most promising quarterback in college football today, but once I was just a boy desperately in love with the wrong girl, one I’d very much like to win back. She blocks me better than any player on the field, but to figure out my best play, first I need to understand how we got here. We have been apart longer than we were together but we can’t seem to stop torturing each other. Every guy she touches or allows to touch her is like a knife right to my heart. Not to be outdone, I play her game. No one will ever accuse me of giving less than everything.

Please read the triggers - you’ve been warned.
This story was very dark however it was beautifully put together. You get the story mainly through the eyes of Shelby. Please be aware that there are r*pe scenes described in details and torture. The intro gives you an idea of what to expect. I am looking forward to starting book two! I hope it becomes available on audible soon. The narration was amazing! It really brought the book to life. Reader beware. Not for the easily offended. You’ve been warned.

Your next book boyfriend is NOT in this book!
⭐️Overall 5/5
🎧Narration 5/5
🌶️ Spice 5/5
🖤Dark 5/5
The tone of the book is set by the first scene. This is not a story of the villain burning the world down for her, but the villain burning her down in secret from the world.
If you have any triggers, CHECK them, again, this is not your normal dark romance. Shelby is put through the wringer, humiliated, and broken. You get the story from her point of view and the events that lead her to that point and beyond.
There are twists that I didn’t see coming, and parts that made my heart ache for Shelby. I wanted to reach through the book and help her! I wanted to stop reading so many times but couldn’t!
The narration was well done. The style of southern accent for Shelby fits with personality and traits of the character. The emotional turmoil was portrayed exceptionally well so you knew how Shelby was feeling during the phrase before the “description” was given.
And then there was the MMC, I do NOT want to admit how well this was narrated! I do not want to like anything about this character, but there were moments…and then me thinking about the one…ugh! I am sure if I eye read this book I would have made them all sound like greasy, long mustache 70s villains!

The Degradation of Shelby Ann
This is one Dark story, very sad and heartbreaking 💔, and very relatable. I think what makes it hard to listen to is that this really does happen to women everywhere. All I have to say is to be very aware, I had to stop listening a few times because I couldn't handle it. but to be honest I am looking forward to the next book. because I hope she comes back and makes them pay for everything they did to her. 🥺🥺😥😥💔💔

🥺 Wow! That was really intense and well worth it.
*I can’t emphasize this enough, PLEASE check the trigger warnings for this book before you read/listen to it, the assaults are very descriptive.
That being said…. This story wrecked me in a way I was not expecting. I wanted to crawl into the pages and save Shelby Ann myself. You’ll be along for the ride, feeling helpless to do anything but hear her story as it plays out. Shelby Ann was a pawn in game she had no idea she was playing & I can only hope the conclusion comes out soon and she gets her revenge on anyone who wronged her. She deserves her HEA, or at least some semblance of justice and happiness.
The duet narration by Jake and Bridget Bordeaux was as expected from this dynamic duo - perfection!

Too dark
I don’t mind a dark book but this one was a little too dark for me. Too much real time abuse and rape. Not a quick memory but full on real time not stop. Love the narrators but… Yeah…too much.
