“Look into the camera, Ripley.
Tell us what happened in Harrowdean Manor.”
Serving a three-year sentence after a violent manic episode, I own this psychiatric institute and every last patient in it.
Dealing contraband to the desperate and disturbed has earned me this kingdom. To survive, I simply sacrificed my soul.
They all fear me.
Worship me.
Hate me.
But no more than the demons I barely escaped last year. They thought they’d broken me with their greed and depravity. Instead, they made me ruthless.
Now, my enemies are back.
And they’re out for blood.
Lennox wants to kill me.
Xander wants to break me.
Raine just wants to feel alive.
But in here, it’s kill or be killed. As the horrifying reality behind Harrowdean’s lies starts to surface, a bloody battle for survival begins.
Their social experiment is set to burn.
And I’m the one holding the matches.
Author’s Note: Sin Like The Devil (Harrowdean Manor #1) is a dark, why choose romance and book one in a duet. It does end on a cliffhanger. Set in the J Rose shared universe.
My Review
'𝐒I𝐍 𝐋I𝐊E T𝐇E D𝐄V𝐈L' Is the first full length enemies to lovers book within the series (Harrowdean Manor) by author J. Rose.
When I saw the sign up making the rounds, without a thought I signed up, the cover, to the blurb, throw in the author and life pretty much went on hold whilst Iread inhaled this!!
✔️ Why choose
✔️ Antihero FMC
✔️ Enemies to lovers
✔️ A corrupt psych ward
✔️ Revenge trope
✔️ Mental health rep
✔️ Forced proximity
This took no time at all to get into, harder to put down. I was pulled into this roller coaster of a web this author weaved as I raced through the pages hoping these characters would come out relatively unscathed at the end of it, because some just don't out of this place at all, there's one place in this institution you never want to go, the patients whisper about it, but none never come back. We get front row seats into what exactly goes down and Ripley is here to finally tell the tale.
This starts off with Ripley sitting in front of the camera and she bares her soul and spills the beans on what went down at Harrowdean Manor. A place to the naked eye is above board, but delve deeper and it will send chills down your spin. Ripley was top dog, until three men came along and wanted to uproot her from her throne, two of these men know her well, which dates back to Priory Lane whre they were all incarcerated, the other had never met her but knew of the vengeance running through his friends veins.
Each playing their own games in order to survive the life they have been thrust into, all in the name of protecting non blood bonds.
