 Dark, twisted, and deliciously wicked.

This fractured fairytale, inspired by The Lion King, is a dark, adult, slow burn romance. McIntire has once again adapted some of my favourite stories and brought the villains to life in a new and exciting way. I really enjoy her no-holds-barred writing style; while some may consider it for shock value, I think it fits these villainous main characters wonderfully.

The contents of this book may be heavily triggering to some readers, so please be aware that there is graphic violence, murder, sexual content and more - a full list of CW is provided within the book.
