Heartless Beloved

North Shore Stories, Book 2

De: Lola King

Narrado por: Corvin King, Heather Firth

He is everything she's been warned against. She is everything he hates.

I'm from a place where you eat or get eaten. Two gangs are at war, and I'm hungry for survival.

Growing up in a broken town doesn't make you a good man. In fact, the North Shore of the Falls has made me merciless.

I survive because I'm a good soldier for the North Shore Crew. I'm cool-headed, I never lose sight of my goals, and my only obsession is to wrench our town from the clutches of our sworn enemies, the Kings.

Alexandra Delacroix is just a job. Plain and simple. She lives in our neighboring town, in the millionaires' heaven they call Stoneview.

The plan is straightforward: charm her, uncover incriminating information about her senator father, and tip the balance of power in our favor.

But unlike the other rich girls from Stoneview I use as toys, Alexandra is kind, selfless… sweet. Sickeningly so. A bright pink cupcake with glitter and sprinkles on the icing, that kind of sweet.

We have nothing in common. Nothing but the secrets we keep.

And before I know it, my priorities change.

Before I know it… Alexandra Delacroix is my new obsession.

This is book two in a series of interconnected standalones. For mature listeners.

This was so good....

I am absolutely loving this series so far. This book gave me all the feels and thr narration was amazing. I mean Corvin King?? Legit can't go w r ong with that man's voice.

Absolutely In Love!

This story is owning my entire heart and the narration was incredible! Truly, I felt so immersed in this story and felt every emotion on this journey with the characters.

All the feels!

I loved this book more than I imagined. I ended up binge listening and finished it in two days. There was great character development balanced with lots of steam. Like the first in the series, this does have SA, dark MMC, drugs and very damaged characters. The narrators did a great job bringing this book to life. I'm looking forward to listening to the rest of the series.

🖤Xi&Alexandra💓

~Heartless Beloved~North Shore Stories Book 2~ Lola King~

“I don’t know why you think you don’t deserve to be protected. I don’t know why you aim to make yourself small and pliable. To say yes with a big smile when you want to scream no…but no more.”

♡I didn't think I could love a couple more than I loved Caden and Billie, but I was wrong. The narration was phenomenal!! The beginning of this book had me once again hating the MMC, and by the end, I was rooting for him. Take that as you will because some may say that I'm unwell for thinking that... I love dark romance reads, and this book definitely fulfilled my love of dark romance.

Alexandra, a girl who has been through the inevitable, is trying to be free from her controlling father and haunting past all while trying to find who she is in the process. Xi is a broken soul trying to do everything he can to protect his family, even if that means hurting the only girl he's ever loved when he never meant to fall. I'm so excited to continue this amazing series♡

~As Always Happy Reading~

Get it NOW!

Insert book hangover! This story was insane and had so many shock value moments. The narrators were perfect! Alex (the fmc) was a badass character with a ton of depth. Do not wishlist this…download right now. 🖤🖤🖤

I can't wait for the audio for the rest!

I liked this more than I thought, especially because I wasn’t Xi’s biggest fan after Beautiful Fiend. I still like Beautiful Fiend more, but it was still really good!
