Resumen del Editor

The villain isn’t supposed to be king.

I have a simple plan.

Finish Royal Elite School and get into my dream university.

One glance from the school’s king blows my plan up in smoke.

One glance and he suffocates my air.

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.

The devil in his hell.

And now, I’ll pay the price.

Being hated by Aiden King is dangerous.

But being wanted by him is lethal.

Deviant King is book one of Royal Elite Series. This is a dark high school bully romance, mature new adult, and contains dubious situations that some listeners might find offensive. Aiden isn’t the normal romance hero. In fact, he’s not a hero at all. So please don’t listen to this if any of that bothers you.

This book is part of a trilogy and is not a stand-alone.

So good!

Love Aiden so so much!! Shane East is EVERYTHING!! This is a re-read and re-listen for years to come!

very dark high school romance

At first I thought this was just a run of the mill bully romance, but there's a story behind every corner. I can't wait for the next book. Shane East and Kiera Steven's do a wonderful job together

Wonderful

This book was ok. The male narrator sounded older than high school age. Other than that, it’s good for young adults. Cliffhanger tho

Absolute Perfection!!! That ending, oh my gosh!!!

Holy heck! Why did it take me this long to listen this book? It is absolutely amazing! Shane East’s voice is perfection! His voice demands your attention and you don’t want to listen to anything else! Keira Stevens’ voice was the absolute perfect female lead for this audiobook. Her voice was vulnerable and soothing. Both Keira and Shane grabbed my attention and I didn’t want the audiobook to end. I will definitely be searching for more audiobooks these two voice and listening for sure!

This book I loved every word written!!! I so badly need book two as soon as possible! That ending! 😱 What an audiobook book! I loved Rina Kent’s writing! Aiden and Elsa are amazing characters. This is an amazing must listen to!!!

I enjoyed it thoroughly Can't wait for next book

Now I can't wait to listen to next book, I'm not a very patient person. uhh Every thing about this was great! the story, the mystery, the performance! Cant get enough!

Auditory bliss at is deliciously dark best

This dark romance is a symphony of passion, danger, and wicked allure, and it deserves every bit of its 5-star rating.

Shane East, portrayal of Aidan King, is absolutely brilliant, making every whispered endearment an auditory delight. But the brilliance doesn't stop there – Shane's portrayal of all four horsemen (Aidan, Cole, Xander), including the banter-filled Ronan Astor, is nothing short of genius. Each character is distinct, and Shane's performance is a testament to his unparalleled talent.

The banter in this book, especially from Ronan Astor, adds a brilliant layer of humour amidst the dark and intense storyline. It's a testament to Rina Kent's skill in crafting characters that feel real and dynamic. Shane's delivery of the banter is sheer perfection, making those moments memorable and entertaining.

The duet narration in "Deviant King" is platinum standard in the world of audiobooks. The chemistry between Shane East and Kiera Stevens enhances the narrative, creating an immersive experience that lingers long after the final chapter. If you're a dark romance lover, this is auditory bliss at its deliciously dark best.

Be warned, though – this book will leave you hungry for more. Rina has proven once again why she's a fabulous author, and "Deviant King" is a shining example of her storytelling prowess with Shane and Kiera for delivering a performance making this audiobook an absolute gem in the realm of dark romance.

WOW! I am in love with this one

Wow, just wow. This book had my mind blown, Aiden and Elsa story is a must read. Phenomenal story plot line. Bully romance is my favorite genre, this dark high school romance is simply my cup of tea times a million. All that can be twist it was, all that I thought was overpassed by and the bar is set so high, so many things going on and yet not enough. I so need more now! It's just amazing how this book got me reading all night and yet I couldn't sleep because I needed more. Simply a masterpiece.

Amazing!!

Loved it! Can't wait for Steel Princess and Twisted Kingdom to come out on audible.

Couldn’t stop listening

Excellent story and top-notch dual narration made this an excellent listen! I can’t wait to go into the next book!

Totally 💯 - review of books 1,2,3

First, I really was hesitant to enjoy a dark romance in a high school setting. I’m a practical person who finds it difficult to allow my brain to play out these scenes with 17 yo. characters. Nothing more unbelievable than very mature instances, feelings, reactions, handled with the upmost of maturity of someone who just learned how to drive. That being said, I was very happy I read this series. Even though HS romances won’t be on list, this was very very very well done. I listened via audiobook and Shane East’s narration was performed well, he obviously didn’t sound like an 18 yo so I was able to escape into the story a little easier. The Royal Elite HS was actually a fun setting which often reminded me of Gilmore Girls.

I was looking for good dark romance and this gave me what I wanted plus more I didn’t expect. Warning: Elsa is irritating “incredulous”! Not all the time, but how she handled her feelings and reactions to Aiden was very immature. I prefer strong female leads who chose to be obstinate or submissive. She just couldn’t be either and was an emotional limp noodle. The story more than makes up it and I don’t give a perfect ⭐️ review for nothing. The story is dark and complex. As it develops you can totally understand Aidens obsession with her (and even Elsa’s emotional immaturity) and it feels so genuine which adds ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ chemistry. You feel how they were enemies and that it took time to turn into a couple, not just over night. Well done!!!
