The King by Skye Warren is NOW AVAILABLE
long live the king...
The highest stakes...
My father gambles every night, falling deeper and deeper into debt. When he hits the bottom, he places a new bet: his daughter. I'm his entry bet to the biggest underground poker game.
Every kind of danger circles the velvet-covered table, but only one man makes me tremble.
A trailer park princess.
The son of a criminal king.
We don't belong together, but I'm caught in a twisted game.
His eyes meet mine with dark promise. And when he puts down his cards, I know I'm going to lose more than my body. I'm going to lose everything.

THE KING is the first book in the new Masterpiece duet about risking your heart and finding yourself. It's a spin-off from the USA Today bestselling trilogy but can be read separately.
Holy Batman! The King by Skye Warren is a darker bomb. I can’t still savour this book. I couldn’t put it down. I loved every minute of it. This book is the first part of the Masterpiece Duet. The plot is deeply dark and it makes my heart beat faster. The author delivered an intense story that will leave her readers breathless.
The King is a about Damon and Penny’ story, characters introduced on the Endgame Series. It’s told by the heroin's POV. In this book you will read how much trauma suffered Damon Scott, all inflicted by his father. He has a dark soul. He is a wild boy with a golden heart. Damon is like a fallen angel: dark and bright. Darkness is trying to consume his broken soul, fearing to be like his father. In the past he tried to Scape his father’s claws but someone made him sacrifice himself. Being a heartless criminal will be his fate and the only way to save his baby genius is to eliminate any threat for her.
“It’s so much more interesting than a princess, don’t you think? A pretty face has its appeal, but a sharp mind is a goddamn aphrodisiac.”
Penny has going thought a bad life. She lost her mom and she has to move with her Daddy, and irresponsible father, who has a game addiction. She feels alone in the world. As a child she suffered hungry. She was a smart little girl who caught the attention of a monster. To survive, she will follow the advice of a wild boy who is also the son of the monster. She will hide her ability with numbers.
“My sweet Penny. So smart. So pretty. So fucking little. And you’re right.” His words are low, bouncing off the bricks as if they’re coming from the night itself. “I lived so long underwater that I became a part of it. I rule this place.”
Penny and Damon have a rough start in life and later on they will share the same trauma which will be inflicted by Jonathan Scott.
“And when I win, what will you give me? I think you know the answer to that. You’ll stay here with me. You’ll be mine. Mine to keep, Penny. Mine to protect.”
Only the Prince with the help of the Knight will destroy the King.
“Because I did dream of you, Penny. I dreamed of you and I watched you and I wanted you. Even though I knew it was wrong, I couldn’t stop. It isn’t about how old you are—it’s you. It’s only ever been you.”
Many scenes took my breath away. I felt myself deeply immerse in the story. The intensity level was overwhelming. Warren is one of the best writers of the genre dark romance. She always delights us with her elegant writing.
