If you are looking for an erotic and enthralling dark romance, Cruel Princes is the one for you. I think that it is useful to get the prequel to this story Darkest Prince to understand the back story in this book. We have four brothers. The oldest brother Luca Salvatore is the leader and wields the power is brother by blood is Marcello who runs the security of the company. Their father Arlo Salvatore has trained his son Luca to take over for him and has his brothers Bastian and Damian who he adopted to help him settle scores for those that he needs taking care of. Arlo is Italian and head of his family and is essentially a billionaire. Arlo wants to be a part of the Founding father's society but the only way his family can become a part is to marry into the family of one of the founding fathers and that is where Alexandra and Adrian Wellington come into the picture. Alexandra is the only person that is of age to marry within the family and so her grandfather had made a pact with Arlo that one of his sons can marry her. They are all broken individuals in one way or the other. Alex has PTSD for the mental and physical abuse her mother inflicted upon her before their grandfather came and took them away from their mother. She would lock her in closets and starve her and just blame her for the reason her life was the way it was, but it was she who made her choices in life and got disinherited by her mother and father. Then there is Damian and Bastian. We finally found out that Damian has some type of disease that doctors have been trying to cure since he has been young. He doesn't know how to act with people not knowing if he is suppose to good or bad but he has his brother and best friend since they were young to calm him and keep him from hurting himself and other people. So, we have all these broken people and their one mission to is to keep Alexandra safe until Luca marries her and makes her Queen. She doesn't understand and she really could care less about being Queen, all she wants to do is paint, and she is good at it. The time was coming for Luca to put a ring on her finger, didn't happen. We find out that they have all been drugged and that Alexandra has been kidnapped, after all they have done to keep her safe. I have purchased the next story, and I am eager to find out what happens next with this group of young people, I am sure that the next book will be one exciting book, can't wait.

About the author
Dark romance lovers will enjoy this wild, spicy ride
RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ STEAM: 🔥🔥🔥🔥 This book is not for the faint of heart. It was a crazy wild ride that will have you jumping off the fictional cliff with your eyes wide open, because you just cannot look away. Alexandrea Wellington has been claimed by her cruel Salvatore princes. She has managed to get a reprieve when she went to college in New York, but now they want her back with some urgency that they refuse to disclose to her. She has no choice but to comply to keep her twin brother Aiden safe and to make good on her grandfather's deal with the Salvatores. The deal was to marry one of them, but just as she finds the men attractive, they each have a characteristic trait (or two) that keeps her from wanting to say "I do." I was scared about the bully aspect of this read, and the prologue and the first couple of chapters did not exactly help my wariness. However, I am glad I stuck with the book. There are more layers to the big bad Salvatores than meets the eye, and we get to discover that character development along with Alex. Luca is clearly the Salvatore heir apparent to their throne overseeing a secret society, and while he may be considered as the golden child, being next in line holds certain crosses that he has to bear on his own. He keeps the most distance from Alex because he fears emotion and can sense early on that Alex might be capable of drawing it out of him. Marcello is probably the one closest and most sympathetic to Alex, but as the head of security for Salvatore Global, he has been forced to build a wall around his heart and be at the family's beck and call. Bastian is almost like Marcello to Alex, but his burden to carry is being a constant companion to Damian, keeping his brother's demons in check. And poor, poor Damian. A monster who never got the love he needed to keep his illness in check. None of his brothers really trust him, especially with Alex. But we soon discover that while they think they hold power over Alex, it is she that is their ultimate weakness. This book kicks off a trilogy and obviously ends in a cliffhanger, but the journey from start to ending is worth it. Like I said, this is not for the faint of heart as it is a dark romance (please check out the warnings), but if that is your jam, this will be a great read for you.
