King (Alliance #2) by S.J. Tilly

My goodness!! I thought Nero was unhinged?!!?! 😀

King was an absolute lunatic and I had the best time with him and Savannah. I don’t dip into the dark romance pool very often. It’s just not my jam, but these books are so cray cray that I find myself reading them through the lens of them being fantasy rather than contemporary.

I also like that the Alliance focus a lot of their rage and violence toward traffickers. Very hard to see them as total villains when they are taking out the worst people society has to offer!

What I also loved was how unhinged Savannah ended up being. Girl found a lunatic man who encouraged her to get her freak on and she went all in! Took her a little time for her to come around after he kidnapped and forced her to marry him, but once she was in she was IN. I respect that! 😀

I mean this man found all her exes and relocated them to fucking Alaska!! Legendary unhinged behaviour. I can’t see anyone topping that but I can’t wait to find out if someone will.

I have two more books from this series left, but I think I have like four more dark romance prompts left in this challenge. I don’t know what I’m going to do to fill that gap. It will be hard to replace these glorious mental cases!

Synopsis:

Okay, so, my bad for assuming the guy I was going on a date with wasn’t married. And my bad for taking him to a friend’s house for dinner, only to find out my friend is also friends with his wife. Because, in fact, he is married. And she happens to be at my friend’s house because her husband was busy working. 

Confused? So am I. 

Unsurprisingly, my date’s wife is super angry about finding out that her husband is a cheating asshole. 

Girl, I get it. 

Then, to make matters more convoluted, there is the man sitting next to my date’s wife. A man named King, who is apparently her brother, and who lives up to his name. 

And since my date is a two-timing prick, I’m not going to feel bad about drooling over King, especially since I’ll never see him again. 

Or at least I don’t plan to. 

I plan to take an Uber to the cheater’s apartment to get my car keys. 

I plan for it to be quick. 

And if I had to list a thousand possible outcomes… witnessing my date’s murder, being kidnapped by his killer, and then being forced to marry the super attractive but clearly deranged crime lord, would not have been on my Bingo card. 

But alas, here I am.
