THE CHOSEN ONE

Barrington University is home of the Lords, a secret society that requires their blood in payment. They are above all—the most powerful men in the world. They devote their lives to violence in exchange for power. And during their senior year, they are offered a chosen one.

I VOW. YOU VOW. WE VOW.

People think growing up with money is freeing, but I promise you, it’s not. My entire life has been planned out for me. I never got the chance to do what I wanted until Ryat Alexander Archer came along and gave me an option for a better life. He offered me what no one else ever had—freedom.

I chose to be his. He made me believe that anyway, but it was just another lie. A way that the Lords manipulate you into doing what they want.

After being sucked into the dark, twisted world of the Lords, I embraced my new role and allowed Ryat to parade me around like the trophy I was to him. But like all things, what started out as a game soon became a fight for survival. And the only way out was death.

Loved it!

I have been waiting for the audio of this book forever and it did not disappoint! Ms. Tessier - please give us more!!

🌶️🌶️🌶️spicy and sweet

Spoilers and trigger warnings -

If stalking, gaslighting, forced sex fantasies, drugging, forced pregnancies and murder bother you do not read this book.

If you enjoy a spicy book with good pacing, plot, and different point of views then this is the book for you. The narrators voices bothered me at the beginning but then were tolerable later on once I got used to them.

So good!!

Wow this was good...so dark & dirty!!! Definitely check the trigger warnings on this.

I listened to the updated audio and the narrators were amazing, definitely recommend!!

Great book boyfriend

Ryat is the definition of book boyfriend. Morally gray, possessive, hot, all the good things. Yes most of the book is sex but I don’t think that’s a bad thing. Overall great book.

I wish I read the reviews

The female narrator sounds like shes reading slam poetry. The way she talks is like a roller coaster.. up and down in all the wrong spots. It’s very hard to listen to.

So good!

Ryat is my favorite of all the Lords. Great story, lots of spice and the perfect amount of darkness.

Wow!

I can’t stop listening to this! I loved both narrators, they were perfect and brought to life one of the best books I’ve read!

Better Than I Expected

I put off reading this one for a few months because I was worried the hype would be better than the actual story, but I was pleasantly suprised! The character development was subtle over the course of the very long story, which I love. The male narrator was fine but the female was a bit dramatic. I know they are actors, but the inflections are always all wrong. Was hard to handle some times but the story made it worth it.

I freaking loved this book

Firstly i almost didn’t but the audiobook because the negative reviews worried me.. im so happy I still bought it because the narrators didnt bug me at all! Its all subjective.

Secondly- this is a serious trigger warning- do not read this book unless you are okay with CNC (google it). The reviews by vanilla karens are so funny because they clearly had no idea what they were getting into lol.

Thirdly, this book was so so amazing. I cried because i was happy, i cried because I was sad. I felt a hole in my heart when it was over, i really fell in love with both the MC’s.

Its super spicy and has lots of twists, just buy it already.

Dark but So Good!

Dark but So Good! It kept me wanting more. Let’s just say “If you know, you know!”
