"This book will ruin you for all other books in 2019" - Bestselling author BB Easton

From USA Today and Washington Post bestselling author L.J. Shen comes an enemies-to-lovers romance with a twist...

They say your first kiss should be earned.

Mine was stolen by a devil in a masquerade mask under the black Chicago sky.

They say the vows you take on your wedding day are sacred.

Mine were broken before we left church.

They say your heart only beats for one man.

Mine split and bled for two rivals who fought for it until the bitter end.

I was promised to Angelo Bandini, the heir to one of the most powerful families in the Chicago Outfit.

Then taken by Senator Wolfe Keaton, who held my father’s sins over his head to force me into marriage.

They say that all great love stories have a happy ending.

I, Francesca Rossi, found myself erasing and rewriting mine until the very last chapter.

One kiss.
Two men.
Three lives.
Entwined together.

And somewhere between these two men, I had to find my forever.

He was a Thief of Her Fate He was her thief of everything that mattered.The wait and anticipation was worth it! I fell in love with this story over and over again! An incredible story...he was her fate.A girl whose life was all planned out for her with none of her input. She's about to be set free even though at first it feels like a cage.I absolutely adored these characters and their many facets. A few twists and turns that kept me guessing and wondering. But ultimately it was an unforgettably epic, yet unconventional, love story. You will be on an emotional roller coaster of anger, frustration, heartbreak. wonder, lust, hate, forgiveness, indecision, acceptance and LOVE. And the ride is just beautiful.So much pain, yet there is beauty in pain. When you find the one who can help lessen your burden, and heal your heart, you never let go.Read it! You need to because you will love them as much as I do.Such a Huge Disappointment Standard issue abuse, manipulation, and rape thinly disguised as romance. I spent the whole book genuinely uncomfortable, wondering how a female author could ethically publish this normalization of rape culture. All around yikes.Dark I can’t believe I’m doing this. I have never given a bad review. It’s not my style to knock someone’s baby, and after writing a story, that’s what it is to the author.This story is dark, cruel and left me sad. At no point should rape be glorified or excused. Not. Ever. Just because she yelled at him to just do it when she HAD NO CHOICE, is not consent.Never should you be disrespected, kidnapped, held against your will or belittled.I do understand the story the author was trying to tell. I also know life isn’t always sunshine, unicorns and baby animals.The story premise was interesting. It is a story which would be a hard story to tell. But broken people aren’t always cruel, mean or vindictive. One thing I was never able to figure out, was how did she even develop feelings for him when he was absolutely horrible to her in every way? When the “feelings” were developing he was not showing her anything but cruelty and disgust.I just couldn’t get into the story. It was too dark, too disturbing and left me with an overwhelming feeling of darkness and ick. I skipped more pages than I read, just skimming most of them to see if I was missing anything important. I wasn’t. Rape. Is. Wrong. Cruelty. Is. Wrong. Broken people do stupid things granted. But not on this scale.Women, it is never ok to be forced to submit, to sex, to another’s cruel behavior, to another’s will. Never.But the really disturbing part is where the readers have given this a 4.8 stars out of 5. What does that tell us about our view of ourselves and the society we live in?
