An all-new dark standalone romance from the USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author, Shantel Tessier

THE CHOSEN ONE

I vow. You vow. We vow.

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.

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.

              Is anyone else struggling to read the novels on their iPhones? Mine is completely blank, does anyone know how to fix this.

                  Not happy with the storyline. The character making was not up to par . Male character holds all power while the female character has no personality, no personal opinion, no view about anything. She was just a trophy wife to showoff and use . The male character was egoistic at start but then expected a character development but none came instead found that he was a liar, stalker, and wants to control her and think of her as a toy and just uses to get revenge . And a little bit affection was tried to show but that was also like to wrap the male lead in this illusion to readers that he is nice man now but was only controlling in every way and female lead was not strong and just felt like a toy . In dark romance i think the characters should be strongly built and have there own personality to shine and grow instead of this book , the books written by runyx are way better in dark romance and have strong and powerful male/female character. And not to forget the whole storyline about lord thing felt like too orthodox . All in all this story could have been more better.

                      Wow...such a great read!!! Read this in a day I couldn't put it down. Loved the characters and the story plot and twists! Was a little confusing at times, until it was given at the end and then it all made sense. Loved they got at HEA & that another epilogue showed their life 18 years later!

                            It was a really good read! First time reading this author, so! Not fluffy story. You're not into hardcore, this isn't for you!
