Description
Book Synopsis
A conflicted villain and his unstoppable bride form the realm's most chaotic alliance in this riotously funny dark romantasy perfect for fans of Assistant to the Villain, but darker and spicier. "What's mine stays mine." Step One: Kidnap someone cute.Step Two: Force her into marriage.
Step Three: Try not to catch feelings. When Dark Lord Kazimir Blackrose kidnaps Lady Arabella for a forced marriage, he expects an obedient, trembling bride. What he gets is a knife to the throat and a furious woman with demands of her own. He may need her heroic bloodline to achieve ultimate dominion, but she's not about to make this easy for him. Arabella has already survived her father's tower prison and a lifetime of being treated like property. Getting abducted by the realm's most notorious villain is just another Tuesday. If she must be married to the infuriating (and infuriatingly attractive) Dark Lord, she'll do it on her terms: freedom within his fortress, hands strictly to himself, and complete honesty about his plans. But when those plans go awry, Kazimir faces his most terrifying challenge yet: he must date his own wife. Between magical training sessions, playing golf with the eyeballs of his enemies, and aphrodisiac dinners gone spectacularly wrong, his attempts at villainous seduction are failing at every turn. As Kazimir and Arabella navigate magical explosions and jealous exes, they discover a far more terrifying prospect than war or magical catastrophe: They might actually be falling for each other. This dark and sexy fantasy romance is perfect for readers who love: a morally gray antihero (who stays that way); a strong heroine who embraces her dark side (she doesn't need rescuing, thanks); touch her and die trope; hilarious, wicked banter and sizzling spice; one bed/forced proximity; kidnapped bride/forced marriage; and dark humor.
About the Author
Tiffany Hunt writes all things fantasy romance featuring salty characters, magical chaos, kick-butt heroines, and spice. If it has castles, magic, and devastatingly attractive men (or elves, etc), she's down for it. When she's not busy orchestrating romantic tension, Tiffany can be found hiking with her dogs, horseback riding, camping under questionable weather conditions, or attempting to keep the plants in her office alive (current success rate: concerning). She spends an embarrassing amount of time imagining witty banter between fictional characters and has strong opinions about proper villain motivation. Her favorite tropes are enemies to lovers, one bed, fake dating, arranged marriages, and forbidden love.Dimensions (Overall): 9.0 Inches (H) x 6.0 Inches (W) x 1.35 Inches (D)
