I was told if I would be the King’s Queen, I could have everything I’ve ever wanted, but he can’t give me the one thing I want most.


Deon disappeared without a trace the summer before my 9th grade year.
I was told he didn’t want to see me anymore, so I moved on; I moved up.
My high school’s elite, The Royal Court, made me their queen and I didn’t look back.

But then Deon showed up again.

It wasn’t the tats, bad attitude, or even the rumors of prison that concerned me the most.
It was the fact that he still looked at me the way he did when we fell in love as kids.

I traded in my tomboy ways for a queen’s regality, but now my gritty soulmate is back.
I’m stuck between the life I moved on from and the one I moved on to.

Is there a way I can bring the two, or will I push too hard and lose both sides forever?

Evil King is a full-lenght Dark High School Elite Romance and ends with a cliffhanger. Due to mature content, this series is recommended to readers aged eighteen and over. It also contains scenes that some might find distressing.

Book 2 - EVIL QUEEN: coming November 20th
Book 3 -EVIL VILLAIN: coming December 26th.

2.0 out of 5 stars Unimaginative, gramma errors.

This book just seems so unimaginable. SPOILER!!
I don’t understand how a kid could make such a fast and snap decision to take the fall for something HE DIDNT DO, murder at that. Why run away if you didn’t do anything and the dead body “just fell from the sky”? Then there’s the issue that there wasn’t really much depth to the characters or the fact they none of them seemed taken back like many normal teenagers would be by certain events happening. I understand two of them are from rougher parts of town however, it just seems so unrealistic. Also, your boyfriend could go to jail for a murder he didn’t commit yet you’re there “chuckling” with friends not even an hour after he’s just been arrested. With that, the phone call from the mum after she saw on the news that her son had a warrant out for his arrest? I don’t know about the authors parents, but I know mine would’ve been on my ass (even if they knew I didn’t commit a murder) not joking around and making sure the girlfriend wasn’t upset with the mum for lying??? Like I said - VERY UNREALISTIC! It also seems like this wasnt edited by a proper editor, the grammatical errors and spelling throughout was not ideal to say the least. It was an okay storyline which is why I’m giving a two star rating. If you want an okay read & are happy to skim read a book, this’ll be the one for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Intriguing!
Reviewed in the United States on 1 November 2020

Evil King is Rebel Hart's newest release! It's described as "A Dark High School Elite Romance."

Cherri & Deon are suddenly separated during their first date & lose all contact with each other for 4 years. When Deon returns, Cherri has become part of an elite group at her school called the "Royal Court." There is bad blood between Deon & Cherri's current boyfriend, Nathan, so chaos ensues.

I found the "Royal Court" aspect a little unrealistic, so I found it difficult to wrap my head around certain parts of the book because of that. However, the plot was amazing & I fell in love with Cherri and Deon. Looking forward to the release of "Evil Queen" on November 20th!

My review is an ARC rewiew. Rebel Hart captivates once again.

She was the queen being led by a king she believed she wanted. Everything changed when bad boy Deon reappears years later. The lust, love, heat and undenying passion in Deon and Cherri's reunion is exactly what a reader needs to feel. I felt every moment how Cherri feels and makes Cherri relateable. The Royal Court are definately odd together and there's definitely more to unfold here...

Sicily BOY OH BOY he is a brilliant character and his unique humour has left me giggling plenty throughout this book! Every person needs a Sicily in their life!!

Ali and Avery for me are idealic friendship goals to Cherri and there relationship towarfs Cherri is so real and relatable.

The ENDING MY MY MY WHY!!!
I have so much more to say and share but no spoilers from me here. Looking for a gripping read, dive into this book & you'll not be disappointed!❤

Absolutely loved this book! The first in the trilogy & I’m so sad that I now have to wait for the next one 😭
I’ve read all of Rebel’s books so I already know what a talented author she is, but this one had me hooked from the start. I’m fully invested in Deon & Cherri’s twisted romance. If you’re thinking of giving it a go (or any of her books for that matter!) -just do it. I could re-read this over & over, it’s so beautifully written. I need more! & some answers 😁

I love how its almost a reverse of the typical bullying high school thing. Instead of the girl getting bullied it's the guy (sorta).
My only issue with this book is the tense of the verbs. Everything is written past tense. I think (my opinion here!) It would read so much more easily in present tense.
The characters are great, that cliffhanger was uncool, but I'm excited for book 2. Off to read Evil Queen!
