Poisoned Throne by Nikita | Book Review

Jan. 28, 2022

This is another one of the Twisted Tales books and has triggers so be sure to read the author's note about them.

Poisoned Throne by Nikita | Book Reviewfive-stars
Poisoned Throne by Nikita
Genres: Dark Romance, Erotic Romance

Like many little girls, I too used to dream of fairytales.
Until that illusion was shattered, and I saw firsthand just how cruel life could be.
Now I just wished my nightmare would end.

The life I knew ceased to exist as I suffered at the hands of my stepmother, who hated me.
I fought to escape and once I did, I thought life would become normal again, but that couldn’t have been further from the truth.

Tragedy was woven in my bloodstream, hiding in my DNA structure. I had a sliver of peace before it all went to hell again…

I stumbled across the men who were sent to assassinate me.
They became my tormentors until someone from my past showed up.
Instead of killing me, we made a new deal.
In exchange for helping me claim my empire back, they wanted me as payment.

I trusted them until I was betrayed.
Snow White got her happily ever after…
But me? I wondered if I’d ever get mine.

Note: Poisoned Throne is a dark reverse harem romance with some possible triggers. Please read the Author's Note at the beginning of the book before reading because there are some elements that are not suitable for some.

Triggers: Again read the Author's Note for the extra ones NOT listed here. MM within the harem, mental and physical abuse, violence and kidnapping.

Amazon


I received this book for free from in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

This is a reverse harem loose retelling of Snow White as in there are seven men in this one. That is pretty much where the similarities end. This one is dark but oh so good. Adelaide is a princess but not the woodland creature adores kind and more like the her dad’s in the mafia kind.

She has gone through some tough things in life. Her life is not the sort I would wish on anyone but I will say she was certainly a strong character. She refuses to not fight back and that is what makes this book so good. She has a plan for revenge and reclaiming her throne. A throne she will retake no matter the cost.

If dark romance is your jam then this is certainly the book for you. I will admit that I don’t always read it but this one I loved.

five-stars

About Nikita

Nikita is a full time college student who had absolutely no plans of writing a book. This Love Hurts: A Dark Romance was her first book and once Cole and Addison came into her head they wouldn’t leave and thus this story was born.
They were very adamant that their story be written. She’s excited to be on this new journey that was never anticipated but is welcomed all the same and can’t wait to see where this takes her.

In her spare time when she’s not procrastinating she likes to read or listen to music.

Jess
My life is pretty perfect—on paper. I had a string of platinum albums and number one songs all before I hit my twenty-fourth birthday. I’ve got fame and more money than I’ll ever be able to spend. What they say about fame is true: it's lonely up here at the top. The clichés I sing about are true too: all I want is someone who sees the real me and loves me despite all the drama. Then I meet a guy who seems to step right out of my fantasies—grumpy, husky single-dad cowboy—but he won’t even give me the time of day.

Grady

Nothing in my life has ever gone the way I planned. I unexpectedly became a father at seventeen. Before my daughter turned two her mom walked out on us both. The last thing I need is some glitter-soaked pop princess filming a music video on my land and putting stars in my daughter’s eyes. Everything I do, I do for my kid, but Jess makes me want something for myself. Can I risk another woman breaking our hearts?

Canyon “Blitz” Madsen didn’t believe in mercy. When the Redline Kings MC secretary learned one of his prospects was an undercover fed, he planned to seduce the agent’s innocent younger sister as revenge. But he ultimately decided it was a line he wouldn’t cross. 

Then he met Aubrey Cullen and knew leaving her alone wasn’t an option. One look at the sweet nanny, and Blitz was gone. Now caught between the secret that could destroy them and the fierce need to protect her, he’ll do anything to keep Aubrey safe—even working with the FBI brother he once wanted to destroy.

Soren “Rev” Halvorsen never lost control. Then a terrified blonde crashed into his bike on a dark road, and the Redline Kings captain decided she was his.

After barely escaping a serial killer, Delaney Crosswell felt like the world was unsafe. Except for when she was in Rev’s arms. She knew that danger was a part of the motorcycle club, but the sexy biker quickly proved he’d burn the world down before letting anything touch her.
