Publisher's summary

Dude, it was just one kiss. One kiss. But kissing in public isn't allowed in Jahwar. And now I've been compelled to give the King of Jahwar my hand in marriage. He's so cold. So polite. But not behind closed doors. 

"I'm very much going to enjoy breaking you," he says, just moments after we become temporary husband and wife. 

And now I'm about to find out the very, very hard way... 

Revenge is best served wife. 

Reader warning: This is a dark, full-length romance with blazing hot situations that will make some uncomfortable. Please bypass the buy button if you're looking for a wine and rose petals king. Zahir isn't him. But if you're ready for an epic romance with one cruel beast of a sheikh, this story will have you listening all the way until the shocking end.

Perfect, with one exception.

I loved the book, but if the main character is a person of color, the narrator should be as well. But for the references to her ethnicity, I wouldn’t have known or remembered because her voice was clearly not a person of color. It was a bit frustrating.

Sexy hero!

I've read a few TT books but I'm not a 1-click with her work. Most of her heroes feel the same and while this hero got a bad rep in reviews, he's actually my favorite hero of hers so far. Zahir was an Arab king of mixed ancestry(his mother was an Indian Muslim) who fell for the tough as nails New Jersey heroine.

These characters shouldn't have worked. He was reserved and she was flamboyant. So much so, that at her friend's wedding, she kissed him(without his consent) and it forced them to take on a marriage of convenience due to how conservative his fictional country was.

The book wasn't perfect; it's attempt at displaying Islam and Bdsm were appreciated. They weren't perfect depictions but they worked for these characters. Zahir wasn't actually as cruel as I thought he'd be, he was just dominant in nature. A lot of the things he asked of her weren't outrageous and pretty much normal in a kink setting. Again it wasn't perfect but I found myself wishing I wasn't swearing off dating so I could find me a sexy Arab boo thang to negotiate with.

The only thing I didnt love about it was Prin's masculine nature. She always had to get the last word, her narrator sounded like she was from Boston instead of NJ and most of Prin's problems she created because she was hard-headed.
But she was a good heroine and her softness grew throughout the book.

I'm not a TT enthusiast and probably never will be but this was a good job on her part. I love a sexy, silent type hero who can splurge on his woman and her family. It was pure escapism and I wish more sheikh romances featured black women because of this.

Great ride

I love all theodora’s books. This one I enjoy for the thrill ride aspect. I like how perfectly their broken pieces fit together.

Great

I really liked this book and would recommend it. It had a great storyline and sexual storylines. I wish this book was a movie or TV show.

This couple was great together and I was so glad to finally hear the book that I read. I can't wait to hear his brother story and her sisters' story. I can't wait for Her Russian Surrender to be on audible read by Clementine Dove.

Great Story Great Narration...

I loved the story and knew it would be a great performance. I read another review that said something like the voice is definitely not a woman of color, "she was frustrated". I'm just wondering what makes someone feel like they can tell the color/ethnicity of someone through their voice? Women of color don't have a uniform voice. All of us sound different. Everyone at my job thgt sweet country sounding Sophie from KY was white until I showed up for a meet and greet all dark brown skin and box braids.

If only

Great story. I love the characters, especially Prin! I'm not really happy with the narrator for Prin, though.

Great Story

Really well written story. Both characters just on the right side that strong intense and over-the-top border sprinkled with dose of vulnerability sprinkled in! Very skilful to for TT to find that live match and balance between the two yet not have either really lose their fire!
This was Sexy, captivating and witty story that had me stay up all night -I consuming it all in one go!
