Once Upon A Time, There was a king who passed. He left behind two sons, one beloved and one outcast. The older of the two was set to take the throne, but before he could, he had to find a queen to call his own. The younger one was known to be unruly and unhinged. The chosen queen was warned to keep far away from him. Beautiful and cunning, in the light is where she stayed. But late at night, it was the shadowed lands in which she played. Mistakes were made and secrets forged; forgetting duty and her sense. And while the new king had her hand, her heart belonged to the scarred prince. *Scarred is a dark royal romance. It is not a retelling, and it is not fantasy. It has mature situations and themes which may be considered triggers for some. Reader discretion is advised.*
Look, this book was my best bet at enjoying romance again as I apparently gave book 1, 4 stars.I have apparently changed my reading tastes too much in 3 years and basically hated this from the get go. I don't know what it is, but I can't handle the cringy dramatic dialogue in these books (unless said as a joke). Also I thought the book would at least pretend Tristan was the bad guy at the start but I guess not. I ended up not finishing the book and I will be unhauling the series.
