Cruel Princes

Princes of Devil's Creek, Book 1

By: Jillian Frost

Narrated by: Paige Reisenfeld, PJ Freebourn

I hate the princes of Devil’s Creek.

Luca, Bastian, Marcello, and Damian.

For most of my life, no one wanted me…not until they needed me. Turns out I’m the lost heiress to a multi-billion-dollar fortune and a pawn in their sick game.

They keep me locked in their seaside estate, completely at their mercy. All four of them are bullies, taking out their hatred for me in the form of punishments; each with their own reason for keeping me around.

I’m sick to want them.
It’s dangerous to need them.

I think I’m finding my place among these depraved monsters.

Except there’s one small problem.
They’re not the only men who want me.

There are far more dangerous men looking for the heir to the Wellington fortune…which means I’ll be staying in their beds and under their protection for the foreseeable future.

Loved It!!

Do you know the saying, There's a fine line between love and hate? In Cruel Princes, that line is gossamer thin. The push/pull and passion/indifference  Alex experiences from all of the cruel princes is so palatable that you can almost feel it on your tongue. Alex is caught between desperately wanting her life as her own and fulfilling the duty of an arranged marriage with one of these enigmatic men - men who absolutely hate her and who must also protect her at all costs. But remember that gossamer line I mentioned? Luca, Marcello, Bash, and Damian constantly dance back and forth over that line fighting what they think they should feel for Alex and what they actually feel for her. Dance with the devil, or devils in this case, and you'll get burned. But oh what a dance it would be...

Very Sensual and Spicy!

A Queen who knows nothing about her role and is bullied by her "underlings". The storyline as far as RH, bullied romances go was interesting and definitely sexy. Loved that this was performed in duet style and all the personalities were well fleshed out. Both Paige and PJ are well known to me from other works so they are top notch in my opinion!

4 starz - good, but unsure if I want to continue the series

For people that gave it a Low rating

It’s a bully romance book what do you expect. I don’t know about you but most of the “spicy” romance books I read I couldn’t care less about the plot I certainly don’t pick it apart and analyze it like it’s a deep philosophical novel. This book was good I loved its a dark romance novel and the stuff that comes after this book OMG!

Spicy!!!

Did this as both ebook and audio. The narration is outstanding!! The man reads all the male speaking parts even when the chapter is from the woman’s perspective. The voices were wonderful!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Storyline was, good, enjoyable but definitely predictable especially as the book runs out of pages and leaves you on a cliffhanger. The story was definitely written around the spice, who was extremely 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 and blended well together.

Story ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (rounding up but I’d say 3.5)
Spicy 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ (absolute FIRE)

The last book battle King is on audible, you have to search for it separately. I didn't give book 1 5 stars because I struggled to get through it (slow paced)I'm glad I did because the rest of the books were awesome! This author exceeded my expectation on a wrap up book. There are so many authors that don't let you see the future for these characters. I only hope this means we get a series with some of the kids! What a great series!

Idk

I don’t have much to say about the book. The book didn’t bring much out of the characters. The character felt a little bland to me. All I got from the main female character is that she is aroused 24/7 for the main male character, she got mental problems (but didn’t show much of how she got them other than her mother was a bitch) and we only really saw one “episode” if you could call in that?? Other than that she is just weak (if you could call her that word).

We got some of the plots in the first couple of chapters then didn’t get anything. From then on there was oral, fingering, etc… in every chapter. I felt like I was just listening to a straight-up porn book with no plot or story-building. There is this weird thing going on with keeping her virginity intake until this for seeing a moment in the future. They don't take about when, or why, all we know is that all the guys have to be together.

There are also so many things hinted at but I feel like the author will never tell us. Maybe in the second book? When listen I just felt like I didn’t know what was going on and was more in the dark than the main female character (which is saying a lot because she doesn’t know anything).

I also listen and had to stop. I only have three more chapters from the end but I was just done.

DNF

DNF with just a couple chapters to go. I tried to finish since I was so close to being done, but couldn't do it. Not a fan of bully romances, but if you are you'll probably enjoy it. However, the plot didn't seem to go much of anywhere past the first couple chapters.
