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.

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.
