Black Knight: Royal Elite, Book 4

by Shane East Rina Kent

4.4

Childhood bond turns into a battlefield in *Black Knight*, the intense fourth installment of the *Royal Elite* series. Kimberly Reed and Xander Knight once shared an unbreakable connection, but that history has long since dissolved into a bitter, dangerous rivalry. Now, Xander is the embodiment of high school cruelty—popular, powerful, and determined to make Kimberly’s life a living nightmare. For her part, Kimberly is desperate to keep her secrets hidden, but Xander’s relentless pursuit ensures that there is nowhere left for her to run. Utilizing the classic enemies-to-lovers trope, this mature new adult romance dives deep into the complexities of human trauma. While the tension between the two leads is electric and volatile, the narrative is equally defined by its raw, honest exploration of mental health battles. Author Rina Kent crafts a story that is as heartbreaking as it is tender, stripping away the layers of her characters to reveal the pain beneath their animosity. This emotional rollercoaster is perfect for readers who enjoy high-stakes bully romance and stories that tackle heavy, profound themes with unflinching honesty. Brace yourself for an addictive, tear-jerking journey where scars run deep and the path to a hard-won happily ever after is anything but simple.

Best OF The Series (imo)! Check Your Triggers & Enjoy!

Image 91: A 1x1 image, likely be a tacker probe Amazon Customer](javascript:void(0)) 5 out of 5 stars Best OF The Series (imo)! Check Your Triggers & Enjoy! God of Wrath is my diehard favorite from the Legacy of Gods series, so it's no surprise to me that this is my favorite from the Royal Elite series. I DEVOURED this book. Couldn't read it fast enough - I don't quite know if that's a good thing, seeing as as how it was over entirely too soo. That's my only complaint... I wanted more. I procrastinated for so long about reading this series. That was dumb. Having read LOG first, I didn't think it would be possible to like this series any better. Now I'm stuck wondering which is better. I honestly can't answer to it. Aside from Cruel King (didn't care too much for that one), I've absolutely plowed through these books in rapid fire succession. While none of them are a masterful piece of fiction, they are, deliciously, a darn good time. There is, however, no question when it comes to rereading these somewhere down the line. I most definitely will. Heck, I might even toss CK into the scenario just to see if it hits differently (better) the second time around. If you're just looking for a fun reading experience - a good bully romance series to escape into, look no further. Check your trigger warnings, especially on this one. Dive in. And enjoy!

Black Knight is part of Royal Elite Series but could be listened to on its own. For better understanding of the world, you might want to check out the previous books first.
