The Villain: A Billionaire Romance Kindle Edition

I wonder if the 8th time is gonna be lucky....... seeing that every review I posted has been removed.If anyone is wondeing just go to the good reads reviews for the villain.....thank me later.There's only so much censorsing you can do Leigh.

Guy acts all moody and aloof and girl drools at guy. This is so high school writing and very disappointing for a well known writer like playing Ll shen. What's with all these women chasing men and laying their pride for them? Every guy knows anything easy to get is not worth having. I feel bad for naive and pathetic Persephone who only has nothing to offer but a womb. She practically had to threatened him to sleep with her???? Pretty sure the myth persophon never did that. Couldn't finish the book almost barfed.

As is becoming the norm for semi-popular authors, quality is sacrificed for the sake of the almighty $$$. Given that over half of the reviews for this book aren't even verified purchases and are most likely from the author’s Facebook fans, it’s not surprising that this book was a complete letdown!! The story was so recycled, it could have been any one of her previously published "anti-hero" novels. In fact, her books started being hit and miss for me after Scandalous back in 2017. And the fact that this book is categorized as a Holiday Romance and Sports romance -when it's clearly neither - tells you all you need to know about this author's "ethics." ie. high ranking = bigger paycheck! This one was the final straw for me. DNF and returned. Done with this author!

I’m sorry but this book was not it. I am so disappointed. Where was the romance???? This book had zero. Boring heroine, bland hero. Sorry but I had such high hopes for Cillian. He’s been my least favorite hero I’ve read this year. How dare people compare him to Wolfe. Not even in the same universe.

Mark My Words Boys and Girls- THIS Alpha will erase every. single. bookish. boyfriend. from Your memories.I finnished, but my heart is bleeding LITERALLY..... How could I read this baby so fast- I'm not ready to say goodbye.Facts :1. The Villain is masterpiece.2. After The Villain Coma is not a joke.3. Laughing and Crying at one time is not being crazy.4. Cillian Fitzpatrick is Alpha on steroids.5 The Villain is THE MOST LETHAL POISON, but also the sweetest.6 The best thing this December??? Undeniably- THE VILLAIN BY Mrs. Shen.. SORRY SANTA !number ...? until the eternity - Do Not Waste Your time, one click this book right now!Cillian and Persy are life and I'm sure You will love them as strong as I have. I'm not a reader who has a lot of theories about any book from fave authors - I trust their choices, and go into the book as blind as I only can. I know, lot of people has their own type. Mrs. Shen knows how to make her readers begging for mercy hihi but... She couldn't match Cillian and Persy more perfect (specially my inner Marta is definitely more Persy than Belle... or any of Shen's Heroine...)Cillian and Persy's history is unique and one of the kind. They are leaving my soul, heart and mind shattered into a million pieces. I love them. I'm crazy about them. I cannot forget about them. From one side I wanted this book to last forever, but from the other one I wanted to devour every single letter - which I did, by the way.I might sound a little chessy now BUT Persy is Cillians's heaven... You just wait to find out HOW MUCH.

Never in my wildest dreams did I think anyone could compare to Vicious, but Cillian Fitzpatrick is one of the most stunning heroes I've ever had the pleasure of reading. He's broody, hard with a soft core, witty, cold and everything I could have dreamt of in a book alpha hero. His counterpart Percy is my favorite heroine, where she radiates warmth, love and sweetness while being feisty and fierce. She's a fighter that doesn't allow herself to be walked over but also doesn't fight just for the sake of fighting 24/7. Percy finds herself in financial trouble and seeks Cillian's help, while he's feeling the pressure to change his villain image and settle down with a charming wife who can also give him heirs. What starts as an arranged marriage with a contract quickly turns into a constant battle of emotions between the two. They push each other's boundaries and create pure magic on the pages. I loved every interaction these characters shared. The banter was to die for and witty while their love scenes were intense and steamy! I loved the glimpses we saw of Cillian's mind and emotions throughout the book. Leigh does an amazing job of creating these characters with so much depth and backstory that they feel real. Percy and Cillian have unique vulnerabilities and strengths that are combustible when paired together. The Villain also brings the rest of the heroes and heroines in this series closer to the foreground without taking anything away from the main characters. Im definitely more interested in the Monster and Rake than ever before. I loved the plot and that it let everyone shine without becoming overly complicated. Leigh manages to strike the right balance in every way and I never wanted this book to end. I'm not sure it dethroned Vicious for me but it comes close which for me says a lot about the quality of this book. This is an absolute must read that will make you swoon!

The Villain is the much anticipated new release by L J Shen, and it is part of the amazing Boston Belles series.If you love angst, pain, and raw passion, then ‘The Villian’ is the read for you. Shen’s writing is utterly captivating, and every time I finish one of her books I feel an overwhelming sense of sadness and enter into a book slump that lasts for weeks. Her words effect me, they reach into the depths of my body and pull so many emotions from me, I laugh, I love and I also can’t help but enjoy seeing her brutally brooding alpha males brought to their knees by some incredibly strong and inspiring heroines.Cillian is a dark lord, he is emotionless, savage and known as a villainous monster who has no issues sleeping at night whilst he drills holes in the Arctic. He doesn’t know what it is to feel, and he remains hardened and driven to get his own way in life.Persephone is sweet, beautiful and a sucker for a fairytale romance, so like beauty, she cannot but help fall for the beast. There is something about the darkness of Cillian that appeals to her lighthearted nature, and she is completely and utterly infatuated by him. But after a humiliating rejection, she lands herself into a marriage which has disastrous consequences leaving her desperate and fearing for her life. In her time of need there is only one man who she believes can help her ... Cillian.But with a reputation and a threat to his lineage, Cillian is to find a wife and fast. But with a checklist in hand, and some very specific requirements, his choices are limited. Persephone is the one he wants to break, to use and to set free on his own accord, but he soon learns that she is not the naive little bird he initially assumed, and he’s not quite used to someone fighting back.This book was everything and so much more. I found myself completely and utterly enthralled with Cillian, wanting desperately to read and get to the core of his character. He has a dark secret, a one which was painful to read but equally as important and inspiring, and Shen really captivates you and draws you in. Her stories are so real and vivid, and each character reminds you of a living and breathing human. Her depictions play out in your mind like a film, and enable you to be utterly immersed and addicted.I cannot get enough of the Boston Belles, for the bad boy alpha male characters who you love to hate, and I am so incredibly excited to read the rest of this series. Just incredible, and no amount of words could ever justify how good this book is.This is the ideal read for those who love angst, raw romance with some hard hitting oomph that will knock you into a book slump for weeks. It is a book that will satiate your thirst for romance whilst equally leave you begging for more. It is perfect as a stand-alone or as part of the series, and is ideal for someone looking to try something new for it will unlock the door to a whole boatload of incredible books for you to get stuck into.

This book was everything and I mean everything I was waiting for!! Persephone and Kill were everything, definitely up there in my top five!LJ Shen wrote a masterpiece I didn’t think she could outdo herself after broken knight which took over my heart ever since it’s release but the villain was so much.The writing was beautifully perfect, all the feels and angst were so so real! I felt everything these two were going through.Kill and Percy are definitely belonged together they fit so well despite everything they were going through! I loved all the secondary characters and cannot wait for the king of the underworld to get his own book!!Best of book of 2020 by far ❤️❤️

Oh my wow!!This book is amazing!! There is SO much emotion running throughout this book I felt I couldn’t take a full breath until the last page. There’s action, secrets, danger, love, loss and so much more, you will honestly be taken down roads you weren’t expecting.These characters are broken, damaged and wonderful. Their strengths and weaknesses are balanced out by one another and they are exactly what each other needs. Is it fate? Soulmates? Or is it perfect timing and a little bit of magic and nostalgia? Whatever it is, it makes this story one that will stick with me for a long time to come.Loving this series and this was a fantastic read!!A MUST READ!!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

StoicHeartlessColdRoboticAre just a few words you would use to describe Cillian going in to this book. A hard man with only money on his mind. However he intrigues me the most. Why is he so detached? why is he so uncaring? His detached approach to his proposal to Persephone was quite comical really! For someone written to have zero personality, he has kept me very amused!Percy, God love her, is like a fish out of water when it comes to Cillian and the world of the rich and elite. Her desperation is palpable, yet she blindly puts her faith in her miracle wish on a cloud!However she very quickly finds herself a set of stubbornness and courage and very quickly turns into a force that is no match for the great and powerful villain Cillian!She pushes him past his limits, while he fights to keep his composure, she only gets stronger. You see, everyone always fears the King, but oftentimes, it's the Queen that's the most dangerous. And Persephone certainly lives up to her name.I have been obsessed with this book as soon as I started it and that ending.... Perfection. I can't wait to read the next book in this series, if only to get more words about these two.

Alarm was set at 11:57, kindle synced at 00:01 I fell into the world of the Boston Bells until I finished at 5:37amI am SLAYED! I don’t have any words to describe this tremendous book hangover that I’m feeling. I went back to sleep for a power nap and continued to dream about Percy and Kill.My kindle version has more highlighted sections than not!The Villian will truly blow everyone’s expectations out of the water, sassiness, wit, banter with an explosion of sexual tension you can feel from coming from the page.A try love story about deciding you are worthy of love and not having to comprise your morals.Percy was the perfect match (Trust in the goddess that is Leigh Shen) kind and nurturing with a solid AF back bone!Kill will make you drop to your knees and beg him to glance in your direction. A true alpha-hole with under the surface venerability.And the perfect amount of scenes with the other BB favourites (Hunter 😍)My only niggle was Cillian being referred to as having Auburn hair in the first chapter and dark chocolate hair in the rest.I cannot recommend The Villian ENOUGH! I have no idea how I’m going to wait for The Monster and The Rake
