Story
I didn't mean to star in a sex tape, okay? It was just one of those unexplainable things. Like Stonehenge, Police Academy 2, and morning glory clouds. It just happened. Now, my ball-busting father is sentencing me to six months of celibacy, sobriety, and morbid boredom under the roof of Boston's nerdiest girl alive, Sailor Brennan. The virginal archer is supposed to babysit my ass while I learn to take my place in Royal Pipelines, my family's oil company. Little does she know, that's not the only pipe I'll be laying....

Story
I was stolen away and held prisoner in Italy, a bride for a mafia king's only heir. Except I'm no innocent, and it's the king himself—the man called il Diavolo—who appeals to me in sinful ways I never dreamed. Fausto's wickedness draws me in, his power like a drug. And when the devil decides he wants me, I'm helpless to resist him—even if it means giving myself to him, body and soul. He may think he can control me, but this king is about to find out who's really the boss.

Story
Running away from home at 17 wasn't easy. Let's face it, though, nothing before or in the ten years since has ever been easy for me. And I'm doing okay—sorta. I just need to keep scraping by, living under the radar. Staying out of people's way, off people's minds. When a man walks through my open patio door, stepping boldly into my home and my life, I should be scared, frightened, terrified. I must be more broken than I realized because I'm none of those things. I'm intrigued—and I'm wondering if the way to take control of my life is by giving in to him.

She’s about to shell out some serious tears.

I’ve spent the better part of the last few years successfully avoiding my brother’s best friend, Weston Aldrich. As CEO of Andes Inc, the infuriatingly handsome and incessantly grumpy Weston also happens to be my new boss. It shouldn’t have been hard to continue avoiding him. After all, he’s on the executive floor, and I’m one of many copywriters. Weston has his own ideas about how things should go between us. He’s in my emails, leaving notes on my desk, and as if that’s not enough, he arranges for me to accompany him on a business trip.

One glance and he issues his death sentence. His first words spiral my life into irreparable chaos. “I will destroy you.” Everything about Aiden King is black. Black mind. Black heart. Black soul. I should’ve remained quiet and endured the time I have left. I didn’t. I made the irrevocable mistake of provoking the king on his throne.

My whole life, no one has had my back. My parents are dead, my adoptive mother is a drug addict, and the mean girls on campus mock me for my scars. So when I end up desperate for money and out of options, I agree to sell the one thing I have left: my innocence. On the night I’m meant to give my body to a brutal Russian mobster, three men storm into the room like dark shadows and kill him before he can claim me. When they drag me from the blood-soaked bed, I’m certain they’re going to kill me too.

It should have been easy. I needed the money. He needed a babysitter to keep him from snorting himself to death. I was cherry-picked especially for him. Responsible. Optimistic. Warm. Innocent. The worst part is that I should have known better. Alex Winslow. British rock star. Serial heartbreaker. Casanova with whiskey eyes. “Don’t get near the devil in a leather jacket. He’ll chew you up and spit you out.” Guess what? I didn’t listen. I signed the contract. World tour. Three months. Four Continents. 100 shows. My name is Indigo Bellamy, and I sold my soul to a tattooed god.

There are a few things that life doesn’t prepare you for. Like what to do when a super-hot guy catches you sneaking around in his basement, or what to do when a mysterious package shows up with tickets to a hockey game (because, apparently, he’s a professional athlete). Nor how to handle it when you get to the game and realize he’s freaking famous, since half of the 20,000 people in the stands are wearing his jersey.

I kissed my father’s best friend, and it kind of didn’t go well. Not only because he’s 18 years older than me - but he also didn’t like it. Not one bit. In my defense, I didn’t mean to fall for him. It just happened. Nathaniel Weaver is the most attractive man I’ve ever seen with enough charisma to blind the sun. He’s bigger than the world, owns half of it, and conquered the other half. He was forbidden. Wrong. So I totally got over him. Or so I told myself. Until we’re forced to get married.

A Huge Missed Opportunity
- By Cheryl S on 2023-12-28
Written by: Claire Contreras
Publisher's Summary
Emilia
They say love and hate are the same feelings experienced under different circumstances, and it's true.
The man who comes to me in my dreams also haunts me in my nightmares.
He is a brilliant lawyer.
A skilled criminal.
A beautiful liar.
A bully and a savior, a monster and a lover.
Ten years ago, he made me run away from the small town where we lived. Now, he came for me in New York, and he isn't leaving until he takes me with him.
Vicious
She is a starving artist. Pretty and evasive like cherry blossom.
Ten years ago, she barged into my life unannounced and turned everything upside down.
She paid the price.
Emilia LeBlanc is completely off-limits, my best friend's ex-girlfriend. The woman who knows my darkest secret, and the daughter of the cheap help we hired to take care of our estate.
That should deter me from chasing her, but it doesn't.
So she hates me. Big deal.
She better get used to me.

devoured
The story was a fantastic mix of push pull in a realistic way. I love everything about it except for Savannah Peachwood. She read the story in a way that was too breathy and overly dramatic. When she first started reading I had to turn the volume way up because of the breathy/whispery way she spoke. I also found it a bit annoying that she was supposed to have a southern accent but Christian Rummel used more of a southern accent for millie when reading her parts.
Overall I loved this story and absolutely devoured it but could have been better with a better female narrator.

Captivating and Controversial
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Heat Level: 🔥🔥
Dive into the tumultuous world of "Vicious" where love and hate collide in a gripping enemies-to-lovers narrative. As my inaugural journey into L.J. Shen's literary realm, I was immediately ensnared by the magnetic pull of Emilia and Baron's unconventional romance. This tale is not for the faint of heart; it demands your attention and challenges your perceptions every step of the way.
Emilia and Baron's love story defies conventions, plunging readers into a whirlwind of conflicting emotions. Shen masterfully crafts characters that evoke intense reactions – you'll either root for them with fervor or recoil at their actions. Personally, I found myself captivated from the outset, unable to tear myself away from the enthralling narrative. In fact, I was so engrossed that I found myself listening to the audiobook while going about my daily tasks.
While classified as dark romance, "Vicious" didn't strike me as excessively grim compared to recent reads in the genre. Instead, it exudes a somber ambiance intertwined with themes of bullying, adding layers of complexity to the characters' dynamics.
The dynamic between Emilia and Baron is fraught with tension and raw emotion, making every interaction pulse with intensity. Their turbulent past and present collide, weaving a tapestry of passion and pain that leaves an indelible mark on the reader.
However, it's worth noting that Baron's demeanor may not sit well with all readers. His cold, jerkish tendencies could be off-putting for some, adding to the polarizing nature of the narrative. Yet, it's precisely these flaws that lend depth to his character, showcasing Shen's skill in crafting complex protagonists.
In "Vicious," L.J. Shen delivers a spellbinding tale that pushes boundaries and challenges perceptions. Whether you find yourself enraptured by Emilia and Baron's tumultuous romance or recoiling at its darker elements, one thing is certain – this book leaves an indelible impression long after the final page is turned.

Terrible female narrator
The whispy, breathy female narrator voice just ruined this audio book. She always sounded in a state of breathy fright…I could not keep listening after an hour.

Couldn’t get into this
I read all the reviews for this book and got the feeling that I would either love it or hate it since the majority of the reviews seemed to be very divided. I could see how others liked this book but it just wasn’t for me. The story was interesting and unpredictable but didn’t keep my attention. I found the MMCs sudden change of heart completely unrealistic and his misogyny and treatment of people was such a huge turn off. I had zero heart for this character. Also, I found the performance of the FMC to be annoying and overly performative.

Vicious
Written by: L. J. Sheen
Narrated by: Savannah Peachwood & Christian Rummel
This book was my introduction to L. J. Sheen via audiobook and I really did enjoy it.
This boy/man knew nothing about love and caring for a person but deep down inside, something must have woken up some level of feeling because he poked that girl again and again and if you’ve spent enough time around high school students that boy had a crush and didn’t even know it. Savannah Peachwood and Christian Rummel did an excellent job with the slow burning heat that smouldered in these characters. The innuendo, the push and pull in the story! Perfect! I found it really enjoyable and I am sure I will listen to it again.

This is my first book by this author and I loved it! The storyline was great! It had everything from angst to swoon-worthy moments! My heart fluttered once the hero finally gave in to the love of his life. Highly recommended listen!
The narrators did an amazing job with the characters. Don’t know what else to say about this but for you to give it a listen. Worth the credit!
