You want to know what’s going to happen next, and you can’t help but salivate over Aiden’s darkness and Elsa’s strength to try to push him away. The plot of Deviant King is riveting – a complex layer of suspense, darkness and angst, the characters’ mysterious pasts play a role, from the first page – you are hooked. Initially, I expected it to be a pot of cliches – some revenge sort of motives, the heroine and her best friend both outcasts, the hero’s best friends being jerks – the typical bully romance recipe. Since that incident, she’s been an outcast, bullied by her peers, isolated except for her best friend Kim, who is also an outcast. Elsa Quinn is a new girl at Royal Elite School, and on her first day, she catches the eye of Aiden King, one of the four horsemen that rule the school and the football team.Īiden seems to loathe her at first sight and declares to the school that he wants to ‘destroy’ her.

Because I’ve got a thing for dark heroes, and this one was promising me all the angst, and the darkness that I was craving for.Īnd let me tell you, this book is Bully romance done 100 percent right.ĭeviant King is the first book in the Royal Elite Series and ends on a cliffhanger.
When I read the summary of Deviant King by Rina Kent on Amazon, I had to have it. I don’t enjoy senseless bullying, and with heroines described as ‘strong’, ‘sassy’ and failing to live up to that, I can get easily annoyed and rate them 1 star. Many of the books I’ve read felt fickle – like the guy bullies the girl for the heck of it, no tangible reasons. I have a love-hate relationship with Bully Romances. Have you seen the number of times I’ve read this?! When I say I am obsessed with the trilogy – I am not lying. Deviant King by Rina Kent is one of the first books that made me really enjoy the Bully Romance genre.
