My fairy tale turned into a cautionary one. Inked in tar and sealed in tears.

From Wall Street Journal bestsellers L.J. Shen and Parker S. Huntington comes an explosive marriage of inconvenience...between a tarnished Romeo and a reluctant Juliet.

It was supposed to be a harmless kiss at a lavish debutante ball. A clandestine moment with a handsome stranger.

But unlike his namesake, my Romeo isn’t driven by love. He’s fueled by revenge.

To him, I’m a chess piece. Leverage. His rival’s betrothed.

To me, he is a man deserving of poison. A dark prince I refuse to marry.

He thinks I’ll accept my fate. Well, I plan to rewrite it.

And in my story, Juliet doesn’t die. But Romeo? He perishes.

Authors’ Notes: My Dark Romeo is a standalone reluctant arranged marriage romance between a cruel billionaire heir and a feisty heiress unafraid to fight back. It is set in the decadent Dark Prince Road world.

Book Review My Dark Romeo Book 1 By Parker S Huntington & L.J.Shen Kindle book

Marriage on convenience Revenge KU Dark Romance Trigger Warnings Playlist- songs I picked for the book😉 ( Taylor swift- end game) (Hate me)- Ingredid Michleson (Intoxicated)- Warren Zeiders Buddy read Enemies to Lovers Age gap Arranged marriage Spicy Forced proximity

This book was a bit slow in the beginning. But it got so much better! I've read a lot of Enemies to Lovers books over the years, but this book covers the trope Amazingly. I laughed, I cried. These charcaters were  complete opposites, and they fought, yelled, called each other names, and gave each other the silent treatment. It kept me on edge. Then, towards the end, the plot twist had me hanging on the edge of my seat!!! I don't wanna spoil anything. Bit if you have been thinking about reading this and putting it off. Pick up and just DIVE right in! Hang in there... everything will piece together, and you want to regret it!

Wasn’t sure WHAT to expect!

Nowadays, I can't go right into a book by Shen and say, "oh yeah, I know EXACTLY what I'm going to get and its going to be epic!" Whelp, now, for her last TWO books, I've been blown away, just like the beginning days and I was so happy about it!    Yes, it started out dark with the men oppressively hating women but morphed into something real and rich over the course of the book.  It was a slow burn and the build up made me fall that much more in love with it.  With having read a few books by Huntington (who is an amazing writer herself) I could tell (well, I think so at least) who wrote what and that was fun too! Parker seems to write books where her H respects the h a bit more than Shens more recent books but still have a heck of a backbone and doesn't take crap.  We got a good blend here and it made this book magical.     I loved how we got to peel back the layers of both characters and how they seemed to have absolutely NOTHING in common only to discover they both have fierce determination and dogged steadfastness, not allowing anything to get in the way of what they wanted.  That right there was the foundation of this union and it blossomed into a thing of beauty. The , of course, we have those infamous stĂ«amy scenes! 😼‍💹those bad boys were straight up unapologetically raunchy! 😏I even had to clutch my metaphorical pearls a time or two and THATS saying something! For the actual act to not even be the end game of the smĂ«xy times this made it that much more naĂŒghty in my opinion! These two were đŸŒ¶ïžđŸ’ŠđŸ„”đŸ”„HOT without a doubt. Yeah, these authors know how to light it up for sure!!     I have mixed feelings about the secondary characters and will wait to see how their stories pan out in the next few books to fully make a judgement but I did like them, they were fun and brought some laughter to the story for sure! But also have the potential to go the crazy route too (and who says that's a bad thing)??       All in all, this was a great read and even greater listen. I first heard the narrator Jacob Morgan in my 1st Parker S. Huntington book and have followed him since.  I LOVE his voice, just YUM!  Stella Hunter is also one of my favorites.  She gives great inflection and draws you deeper into the story she makes you feel part of it. These 2 together?  Wow, made for an amazing, hit AF read.  Its such a relief when authors get the right narrators to pair with their books!  These 2 were spot on in this case and you will be grateful for it if you chose to listen!  I did a little bit of both (read & listen) as I like to listen when I'm driving too! Can't wait to see what happens next!

This book is funny, tear jerking, and leads you through every emotion you will ever experience even emotions you may not know have existed.

To all the people who put their hard work into this book thank you thank you thank you for an unforgettable experience. But oh how I wish I could forget it only to read it for the first time again.

Really enjoyed this book, great story and even better banter, I found myself laughing and getting emotional was definitely a roller coaster. I couldn’t put this book down! I loved the mmc and mfc but i always find that my fav characters aren’t the main ones and I love that the author gave other characters in this book their own books (my dark desire, my dark prince). I HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
