Deceitful. Arrogant. Cold. Those are the three perfect words to sum up my husband to be.

After little deliberation, my parents decide Isiah Darcy is the perfect suitor.

He’s rich, British, and the perfect ally for the Benedetto family business.

I can’t stand him, but they don’t care what I want.

He’s stuck up and has little respect for women.

Once we’re married, he makes it painfully clear I have no rights.

I’m nothing more than a puppet.

A way for him to get what he’s always wanted.

Revenge on my family for something that happened years ago.

My husband wants to tear my family apart.

He underestimates me, as I’ll do everything in my power to stop him.

And yet all is not as it first appears as I get to know the villainous Isiah Darcy.

Pride is the first book in the Once Upon a Villain Series by Bianca Cole. This story is a dark arranged marriage romance story with dark themes and certain subjects that may upset the listener. It has no cliffhanger, a happily ever after ending, and can be read as a standalone.

Loved this book!! narration is great! Also, as I was getting further and further into the book, I started to realize how there were subtle innuendos to P&P. IYKYK a good read for sure!

Love the pride and prejudice innuendos

I gave 5 stars because the author deserves it. The roller coaster of emotions I experienced while reading this story was overwhelming, and I couldn’t put it down until the end. Spoiler alert: I disagree with how Bella surrendered to Isiah in the end, given that he barely apologized for how he treated her throughout their relationship. I would have preferred a full chapter of him begging for her forgiveness. It came too easily for him, as shown by Bella’s understanding of his motives for revenge.

Narrators did an outstanding performance!

Wow! What a emotional ride

I really wanted to love it but the narration has thrown me off mostly the male narrator. I realize he’s supposed to have a British accent but it sounded rather fake and not a sexy British man. The storyline was okay not enough sexy times but there is a HEA. Is it worth a credit? That’s a no for me.🫤
