About this listen
An all-new dark romance within the Lords world from the USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author Shantel Tessier.
HIS SECRET
A Lord takes what he wants.
But like anything else, even he can get greedy and betray his oath.
That’s where Carnage comes in.
A Spade brother runs their prison for those who have wronged their society.
It just so happens to be where the Lords have sent me.
I VOW.
YOU VOW.
WE VOW.
Most women within the Lords don’t get the chance to prove themselves worthy of the brand or the power that comes with it, but there’s always an exception.
I’m one of them.
Finally, my time had come to be assigned to a Lord.
Not just any Lord but a Spade brother—Haidyn Jamison Reeves.
I had everything under control until he found out what I was hiding.
Everyone in our world knows the only way to get to the top is to sacrifice something the Lords want.
So, when Haidyn gave me a choice—become his toy or turn me over to the Lords—the decision was easy.
I’ve worked too hard to get this far to allow a man to take what I’ve earned.
I chose to become his dirty little secret over admitting I failed.
It didn’t take long for him to unravel my web of lies, thread by thread, until nothing was left.
He took over my life, blurring the lines until I discovered that what I thought I wanted was no longer what I needed.
But even in our world, nothing lasts forever.
Time had run out.
The hourglass lay broken on the floor, shattering not only my future but everything I knew.
I never thought that falling in love with a Spade brother would reveal so many secrets.
And when they all came to light, the Lord who blackmailed me was the only one I could count on.

Kade Mitchell is obsessed with someone he despises. A snake in an angel’s skin, Stacey Rhodes is everything he can’t forget–the girl who shattered his heart and drove him deep into the darkness of the underworld. He watched her for years. Killed anyone who came close to her. But now, granted a brief moment of freedom from the life he’s trapped in, he’s back home and driven to claim her again, breaking every rule he’s ever made for himself. Not even his hatred can stop the pull between them. But he’ll never forgive her… will he?

Welcome to the Lilydale Foundation Center... home of second chances. At least, that's what they tell us it is. It's basically a glorified prison and asylum for the deranged with good alibis. When the police pulled me out of my burning home, along with what was left of my Father, I was deemed broken — even if I was the reason the fire started. So, here I am at my new home. They think they can save us with their fancy facility. But what insane person decided it was a good idea to put a bunch of young, unhinged people together?

It’s complicated. Two years ago, he broke my heart when he left me to do his father’s bidding. After months of crying, I finally accepted he was gone and wasn’t going to look back. That maybe he’d never loved me at all. I never wanted to see Luca again. Now, a cruel twist of fate has signed me over to him in a heartless deal. I’m his. He thinks he did me a favor, but I feel like I’ve been given a death sentence. He doesn't want to get married because he still loves me. No, he did it for money. More power.

Three masked men. One night. One room. One goal. Falling in love is out of the question. Watching my mother die for love only made me want it that much less. When things become too serious with my boyfriend in college, I know it’s time to step back. The only problem is, he doesn’t feel the same. His brand of love is possessive. Fierce. Terrifying. And he’s not afraid to enlist my best friend and my former stepbrother to help him get me back. The plan?

Story13
I wasn’t sure what to expect when arriving in Salem. Forced to marry a man I’ve never met, attend a private university I’d never heard of, and the whispers of a rumored secret society filling the halls. This life would be near unbearable with my insufferable fiancé if it wasn’t for his uncle, his best friend, and his enemy. When none of them are willing to let me go, it sends us down a path I’m not sure any of us will survive. The life I was promised is distorted behind smoke and mirrors. The truth cloaked by Deceit.

Story32
A year ago, my best friend received an exclusive invitation to join an elite brotherhood at Kingston University. He went into Hawthorne Hall for his initiation—but never came out. I intend to find out why. The brotherhood would never knowingly invite a female into their ranks. So what if I forged my father's signature on the recommendation? With a name like Elliot Ashford, they'll never see me coming. I'll endure whatever hell these brutal brothers put me through because I have no intention of backing down or bowing out gracefully. It won't be pretty.

Amazing but so short 😭
- By Mélissa on 2024-05-29
Written by: Leigh Rivers
There was so much that we learned about a lot of difference things in this book
- what happened with Adam
- why he left
- the whole reason that Haiyden helped Ashton escape
- Benny's involvement
- How the LORDS even started
I quite enjoy how Shantell weaves all these aspects into her books.
Haiydens story is fraught with violence and turmoil, pain and torment and a deep soul crushing love that he finds in Charolette (very unintentionally)
Watching both of their inner turmoil as they fall for each other and try to protect one another without communicating which causes them all sorts of issues, shocking i know!
Watching their devotion for one another grow each day to the point where they would do anything, even sacrifice themselves for the other, was wonderful. Haiyden of all people deserves to be loved unconditionally.
Can't wait for the next one
