Kiss the Villain (Villain #1)


Here's "Kiss the Villain" by Rina Kent. It's the first book in her Villain series, which is a Legacy of Gods spin-off.

["My darkness meets a darker soul.

I’m a golden boy.

A genius law student, the heir to the Carson empire, and the dutiful son.

Or, at least, that's what it looks like from the outside.

Deep inside, I have the urge to set the world on fire.

I keep these impulses in check, rarely indulging in mayhem.

Until one night of debauchery backfires, and I'm caught by a villain.

I bury the entire ordeal with the rest of my skeletons.

That is, until that night walks into my classroom in the form of my new professor.

Kayden Lockwood.

A criminal who’s teaching criminal law.

I can't expose what he's done without unmasking my secret life.

What I can do, however, is force him to taste the poison he gave me.

In the clash of titans, Kayden and I break and crumble.

And I'm starting to realize this dangerous game may have no winners."]

This one started off with a bang: a gun and hate sex. What are we going to do with these Heathens?

The last book I read by Rina was broken-boy meets hot-mess. This one is hot-mess meets hot-mess, both psychotic, both knowing this will end disastrously, nothing unable to stay away. 

Which means there was lots of tears and self sacrificing and self hatred and self harming and make tears (mostly mine).

They were toxic as fuck, but it was also so beautiful. The dedication and declarations and devotions meant more and you don’t feel thinks like a neurotypical (or your typical neuro-spicy). It makes the crazy crazier but it makes the love stronger. 

Trigger Warnings: noncon, dubcon, self-harm, violence, homophobia, on-page mentions of suicide, rape, child sexual assault, domestic abuse, and more.
