Title: Merciless Saints

Author: Michelle Heard

Genre: Dark Romance

Type: St. Monarch's Academy #1

POV: Dual

Release date: 26th April 2021

My rating: 💋💋💋💋1/2

At St. Monarch’s Academy, you’re either a predator, a pawn, or prey. It’s the only neutral territory where heirs of the wealthiest rival crime families learn underworld skills.

Alliances are made. Loyalty is owned. Love is taken.

As the best protector in training, I will be paired with the top assassin.
Because I’m unbeatable, everyone fears me.
Even her, Winter, Mafia Princess of the Hemsley family.
Every time she looks at me with fear in her eyes, desire burns through my body. When she doesn’t back down it only makes exhilaration rush through my veins.

Training with Winter comes at a price. The more time I spend with her, the more I want to claim her for myself.

When blood is shed, it’s up to me to protect Winter, and it places her at my mercy. Perfect for a predator like me.
But there’s a price to pay for my protection, and the only payment I’ll accept is her body, heart, and soul.

Plot Summary :
Winter is her family's princess all set to be the queen. She is smart, beautiful and ruthless too. Her life took a huge turn when she got shot with her mother in an encounter that killed her mum. From that day she has been with her dad and little brother, protecting them both. Enrolling into the academy was another step for this.

That is where she meets damien. Damein is ruthless and perfect in all the ways she should stay away from. Not to mention that he is currently on the enemy's side. That is until an event destroys her life and the only person who can save her is Damein and his family. She is bound to them now. And bound to him. To her ruthless captor. The man who is set to become so much more to her and won't be satisfied until he takes everything from her including her body, soul and heart.

Overall Opinion :
I absolutely love this new world Michelle has created! I went crazy about Alexie when we met him in THE HEIRS and now we get to see so much more of him! Damein and winter have one hell of a tale which was both emotional and hot.

They have chemistry and Michelle has done an amazing job of wrapping this one up with a perfect storyline. Her books are something I never miss because she has the uncanny ability to always give me all the feels through her words and characters.

I bet you that you will also love these characters as much as me if not more, if you give this book a chance. All those teases about the side characters and I just know that it's going to be one hell of a ride and I am all set to be destroyed!

Highly recommending this one to all the dark romance lovers out there!
