An all-new dark standalone romance from the USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author, Shantel Tessier. Carnage is based in the Lords' world and can be read as a standalone.

 

A PUPPET

 

The men in the secret society known as the Lords think they rule the world. And in a way, they do. Each has sold their soul to the devil at a young age in exchange for power and wealth. Like anything else, they have different levels of success. The more they’re willing to serve, the more power they have.

 

Among them are the Spade brothers, who run Carnage. It’s where the Lords who have not held up their oath go to live out the rest of their lives in shackles. Tucked away from the world as if they never existed.

 

I VOW. YOU VOW. WE VOW.

 

I once belonged to a Lord—Saint Beckham Carter. Although nothing was holy about him, I still kneeled as if he could grant me eternity in a world where only evil existed.

 

At the time, I willingly vowed to be his and allowed him to share me with his “brothers.” But things changed. And what I thought couldn’t get any better got exceptionally worse. So I did the only thing I could and ran from him, knowing I could never return.

 

Now he’s found me and dragged me back to his hell, where he will make me his pet. The world already thinks I’m dead, so no one will miss me. And I’m just another name on a long list of those who will never know freedom.

 

What he doesn’t know is why I ran from him in the first place. A Lord doesn’t listen to reason, so it’s not like he’d care anyway. Saint was born a Lord, and he will die as one.

 

If life has taught me anything, it’s that we all pay for our sins. And Saint will never let me forget that my place is at Carnage, serving him on my knees until death is granted.

Review


Carnage is the newest book in the Lords series by Shantel Tessier (but can be read as a standalone). It’s a Dark Revenge Romance and I absolutely loved this book, I had huge expectations and it was so much better than I expected!

I was very curious about Saint and Ashtyn’s story every time they were mentioned in other Lords’s books. I was dying to finally read Carnage and OMG this book is so different than what I thought it would be but in the best way possible and if you think you are ready for it, trust me, you’re not. It was a real rollercoaster since the first page until the very last and I’m still in shock at everything that happened. I loved all other books in this series, but this one is just darker, more twisted and with even more mind-blowing plot twists and I loved every second I spent reading it. Every time I thought I finally figured out what was happening, the author proved me wrong and took the story in an entirely different direction and I absolutely love that in books.

Saint and Ash must be one of my favorite couples in this series. Their story is told first in the past, and then we move to what we know as the present from previous books and all the questions I had about them were finally answered. I loved their relationship and how different it was from other Lords and their chosens, these two went through so much, but came out stronger and I loved reading about them and their romance, they were amazing together and I hope we will get to see more of them in the next books in this series. Carnage is a dark romance so I definitely recommend to check the trigger warnings if you have any because Shantel, as always, definitely delivers when it comes to spice in her books and I found myself blushing quite a lot while reading, Saint and Ash are just fire together. 

Carnage is an incredible dark revenge romance book with amazing characters, captivating plot and spicy romance that I loved and definitely recommend to all dark romance lovers. I already can’t wait to read about the next Spade brother!
