/ Fantasy / The Lord's Desire
Synopsis
He vowed to never touch a woman, to never let any desire rule his logic. For many years, it was easy to remain disciplined. Until she came, the personification of his darkest nightmare.
“I thought you didn't like me?” she uttered in silence. He could clearly see in that dimly lit room how her lips curved up.
“I don’t,” he replied coldly.
“Then why,” she stepped forward. “could you not help to leave when you saw me in the King’s arms?”
He fell silent, throwing her a lethal look.
“And I’m sure you know what he did is nothing compared to what he can do on our wedding night. Imagine him doing all those things to me—”
And he snapped. Towering over her like a predator cornering his prey, he pinned her on the wall at the darkest corner of that room.
“You,” he uttered silently as he breathed against her lips. “don’t provoke a creature from hell, Rose.”
***
A woman living in her nightmares.
Melrose is destined to marry the king. It’s not her choice, but to marry the most powerful man in their kingdom is the best the world could offer a lady who needs a man. Everything is going as planned. Until the king's cousin, Reed Knight, the dark and brooding lord comes into her life unannounced. The man hates her every action, her every word, her every look. How could she not care? But her simple curiosity toward his hostility turns into something else… something too dangerous for their own good.
As a woman haunted by her dark past, seeking for light, will she find refuge in the darkness?

I am a fan of strong and practical FLs. FL of this book is exatly that. The way she stands for herself in various undesirable situations she was put into and counters the indifferent, arrogant ML is worth reading. Keeping the characters aside, the story itself is captivating and has so much potential to grow with mutltiple mysterious characters involved.
What an amazing book this is! I know it's still a new story but judging the first chapters, the plot, the mystery, the chemistry between the main characters are all fascinating and keeps me wanting for more! Wish you luck and more power author!
It was a very interesting book until chapter 45. It seems to be a different FL from chapter 45 onwards and there is no note to mention as to why the plot had changed to different characters. I would like to know when the author is going to go back to the original characters
Synopsis looks amazing so I'm tempted to read this book. But seeing how it's fairly new, I want chapters to accumulate (patience and me don't get along.) So, yeah! I have added this one to the library and looking forward to reading this. Good luck author!
