About this listen

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.

I didn’t enjoy the storyline as much as the god series. Thought it was a bit weak. I found Elsa to be a pathetic.

And the way the narrator over enunciated Birmingham made me laugh

Isn’t one of Rina’s better books

I thought I'd be able to overlook the constant mis- pronunciations but they were just so common, and the almost Google typed version of what 'a British person does'. That aside, it was interesting and amusing to listen to. It's a shame the voice overs weren't that great but the author did a decent job! - An amused brit.

Butchered English but a good read.

Love this series

Holy freakin emotional roller coaster!!

My heart is in pieces and everything inside me has bottomed out. Just when it all felt too good to be true— then, THAT FREAKING HAPPENED!

Aiden freaking King *a not so sweet litany of unladylike swear words * what-the-ever-loving-son-of-a-devil happened?!!! — I’m so thankful I’m on an all out binge mode because I couldn’t survive this ending.

Elsa, the frozen princess, warmed my heart through right from the start. I fear for all the things she’s yet to uncover and the things that have come to light.

What a truly gripping, heart and soul consuming story. Rina Kent you truly are THE FREAKING QUEEN OF BULLY ROMANCE!!!

It took me sometime to adjust to the narrator’s Brit accent in this book— but the story didn’t fall short.

Must Read for lovers of Bully Romance.

Loved delving into the parent's world for the LOG characters. Aiden could easily become a favourite of mine. Always a fan of Shane East's narration but also absolutely loved Keira Stevens.

This is the first book I've read by Rina Kent. I listened to the audiobook and can I just say, wow, Shane East and Keira Stevens were amazing. Shane East is one of my favorite narrators- he does an amazing job with emotions, pacing, and he has a perfect voice for Aiden (I've actually been in a Shane East audiobook binge and he's perfect for all the characters he plays because he kind of just has the perfect voice and accent. haha). Keira Stevens is a perfect foil for Shane East as Aiden's enemy/lover Elsa, Beautiful control of her voice, beautiful representation of emotions. I cannot wait to listen to the other books in this series. Please note that this book is book one of a trilogy. Book 4 in the series will start the stories about the other Four Horsemen.

As the start of the series, this one did a bit of the world building. Aiden is the King (also his last name) of their high school and for 2 years, has tortured Elsa. Their senior year, things come to a head. As noted in the description, there are times of dubious consent but this book is crazy steamy. The back and forth, the push pull was so well done. It ends on a cliffhanger (and I'm sure it will for the next book as well.) I'm looking forward to seeing how they overcome their challenges and barriers to achieve their HEA (I hope they do!)

I recieved an advance copy of the audiobook for review. I volunteered to leave an honest review.

I really adore Rina Kent's writing and she does bully stories like no one else. The story sucked me in and so did the side characters. The plot had a lot of twists and holes which I'm sure will be filled in book two.

As far as Elsa and Aiden goes, I'm hungry for more of their story. I wish I got more of Aiden's POV and cross my fingers that books two and three give me that.

This ends in a cliffhanger so make sure you have book two lined up and ready.

Shane East and Keira Stevens really brought both characters to live in this duel narration audio.

A super dark wild ride

Wow, this is one addictive and captivating story, it grabbed my attention right from the start and held hostage straight to the end, heck who am I kidding it is still holding my brain hostage because I need to know what happens next after that mind-blowing ending. This is my first book written by Rina Kent and it will not be my last, she has a great writing style, a creative mind and ability to bring her readers and/or listeners into the story she created, right alongside the characters, allowing you to see what they see and feel what they feel. The characters are complex and well developed. It is Elsa Quinn’s first year in the Royal Elite School aka RES, her goal is getting into Cambridge, she just needs to get thru the next three years first. Her first day at RES was not the best, she was given dirty looks and one guy caught her eye, they were both lost in each other for a moment before he goes to her to tell her that he is going to destroy her. That was Aiden King, one of the most popular boys in the school, a star football player and the son of an Elite. Luckily she makes a friend, another outcast named Kimberly. Aiden torments her for her first two years but changes his tune in her last year, not only playing nice but being protective of her. I really liked Elsa, there is a lot of mystery to her and her life, they are even a mystery to her. Since Aiden is the head bully in this book you can not say he is likable, he comes off as one sick and demented individual at times other times I just don’t know what to think or what makes him tick, so a good word to describe him is intriguing. And I can not wait to learn more about each. I loved how everything plays out in this book, everything is plotted out nicely and there is never a dull moment with plenty of drama, angst, some mystery, thrilling psychological suspense, as well as heartfelt moments and some hot romance. Rina Kent, thank you for this amazing book and for perfectly casting the narrators to bring you story to life. I am looking forward to what comes next in “Steel Princess”, I hope it comes to Audible soon.

Shane East and Kiera Stevens are fabulous narrators and voice artists. They did an amazing job portraying the characters, bringing them to life giving each their own voice, personality and attitude. They captured the characters persona perfectly, Shane’s Aiden was darn scary at times, Keira’s Elsa was great too. The emotions of the characters as well as the drama and intensity of the story was reflected in their performance which enhanced truly enhanced the story even more. They are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another awesome listen🎧

I've read quite a few bully romance books. In fact, so many I'm taking a break as they've started to blur together. However, Deviant King is something completely different. The characters are compelling and wholesome, the pace is spot on - and the setting is so easy to imagine.

It would seem there's quite a few clues throughout about an underlying plot, and I cannot wait to dive into the next one and learn more!

Wooh... how have I not come across this gem before
