Summary

CROSS
Have you ever stood next to a fire and felt the heat of it on your skin? Stared into the flames and thought how amazing it would be to be that free? It changes direction with the wind, destroying everything in its wake。

That's what she felt like。

Alexa was a wildfire that torched everything she touched, and I couldn't wait to be consumed by her。

She was off-limits。 Even though I promised to stay away, I couldn't resist。 She was the spark I had been missing in my life。 The fire I craved。 I knew from an early age I was destined to burn in hell, but she was born to walk through fire。

ALEXA
I was single-minded, focused, and independent。 Just how my mother raised me。 I didn't have time for anything other than myself and work。

Funny how everything can change in an instant when you least expect it。

A King entered my life。

What was supposed to be one night ended up being too many to count。 He was afraid that I'd see his darkness, but I couldn't get enough of him。

After all, a fire burns the brightest in the dark of night。 And it only takes one match to cause total devastation。

CROSS is the third book in the Dark Kings Series and can be read as a standalone。 Due to mature content and themes this book is recommended for readers aged eighteen and over。 This novel may contain triggers。

I was excited to return to Vegas with the Dark Kings。 Cross went through a lot as a child and this insight really helps you understand why he is the way he is。 So many twist and turns to this story。 Hold on to your hat because it is the best of wild rides。 He knew getting involved with Alexa was forbidden, but it really didn't stop him one bit。 The interactions of the brothers of Dark Kings is really what makes this series。 There are some of the strongest baddest females in this series。 This is I was excited to return to Vegas with the Dark Kings。 Cross went through a lot as a child and this insight really helps you understand why he is the way he is。 So many twist and turns to this story。 Hold on to your hat because it is the best of wild rides。 He knew getting involved with Alexa was forbidden, but it really didn't stop him one bit。 The interactions of the brothers of Dark Kings is really what makes this series。 There are some of the strongest baddest females in this series。 This is a series that needs read in order。 This is by far one of my favorite Dark Romance Series。 Full review coming to Bookcaseandcoffee。com 。。。more

In the Dark Kings series, Cross and Bones are the two we know the least about specifically Cross。 I knew his story would be delicious and Tessier did not disappoint。Cross is damaged but Alexa well Alexa was here to knock him on his a** and she had such a strength to her that together with Cross made them a complete package。What’s a King without his Queen? Let’s hope we never have to find out。

Cross ❤️I don’t even know where to start。 I have devoured this series but cross has brought a new light to the king series。 Cross and Alexa where hot。 Alexa listen the other gals was strong and sassy。 Strong and bold。 Her and Cross just gel and what a story and a ride they gave us。 I just love how Shantel has the ability to loins the booked together and also build the back ground characters giving you a full picture。 Such a great read ❤️

Cross' story is a great addition to this series。 If you need a dark, gritty, and passionate story then please grab yourself a copy of Cross。 We finally get every gritty detail of Cross' past。 He has always been an enigma to me and I knew my heart was going to hurt for him。 Alexa is everything he's not sure he should want, but is everything he needs。 What starts out as 1 night turns into many passion filled nights that turn into days。 I loved how Alexa doesn't let what Cross does for the Kings ch Cross' story is a great addition to this series。 If you need a dark, gritty, and passionate story then please grab yourself a copy of Cross。 We finally get every gritty detail of Cross' past。 He has always been an enigma to me and I knew my heart was going to hurt for him。 Alexa is everything he's not sure he should want, but is everything he needs。 What starts out as 1 night turns into many passion filled nights that turn into days。 I loved how Alexa doesn't let what Cross does for the Kings chase her away。 I love how she proves to him that she is his perfect queen, and I love how she brings her king to his knees。 Ok so the reason for the 4 stars instead of 5。。。。。 I feel like this book is almost filler。 Yes we get Cross' past and he gets his perfect match, but it just fell a little short。 I guess I thought it would be a little darker and grittier than what it was。 I wasn't expecting him to burn sin city to the ground where Alexa was concerned, but I figured he would be a tad bit more aggressive。 。。。more

His heart is big and he had no qualms with giving it to Alexa!! Like didn’t even really have a 2nd thought! What。。。。??? He was honest and wasn’t ever afraid to tell her the truth and answer her questions, aside from sharing his past with her, and it honestly just surprised me。 He was literally a softy!!! Well, kinda, not completely but still! I had a hard time with the first half of his book。 It didn’t really feel like a Cross and Alexa book。 So much focus was on Grave and April still。 So I feel a little shorted on their relationship somehow。 The second half it gets better but I feel like an opportunity was lost to be completely smitten by this couple。 And they deserve better than me feeling mediocre about them。 Lastly, Jasmine。 This woman cracks me up and I cannot wait to see who she ends up with!!! Sometimes I think Bones, sometimes I think Nite (who I am obsessed with)。 Ahhhh, can’t wait to see her fall in love。 At least I hope we get to see it。 。。。more

I have waited in anticipation for the 3rd book in the Dark Kings series with excitement and hope that Cross would be as good as the first two stories, and I am so pleased to say that it meets and exceeded my expectation。 The wait for Cross was so worth it, he and Alexa's story was as memorising and captivating as the first two books。 Shantel Tessier has produced a dark, hot suspense storyline, one that although you can't wait to sit down and read it, you are sad that you know it will end, and yo I have waited in anticipation for the 3rd book in the Dark Kings series with excitement and hope that Cross would be as good as the first two stories, and I am so pleased to say that it meets and exceeded my expectation。 The wait for Cross was so worth it, he and Alexa's story was as memorising and captivating as the first two books。 Shantel Tessier has produced a dark, hot suspense storyline, one that although you can't wait to sit down and read it, you are sad that you know it will end, and you will be left with your heart in your mouth waiting for the next King to get his story。Cross's childhood and made him into the man he is today, he knows he is going to hell when his life on earth ends, but does he care? not really, what he wasn't expecting was to be drawn to Alexa, the best friend of one of the Kings girlfriends, what starts as just as one night stand, is about to turn in to so much more。 Alexa, has always been drawn to dark wild men, but she had no idea how dark and wild Cross was, but when she finds out, will the King's way of life be too much for her, I will pull of this man be too much for her to ever let go。 。。。more

This book was absolute perfection and I love Cross! Dark, dangerous, angst, amazing characters and well thought out storyline。 Loved everything about this book。

Talk about Hot!!To be honest, I never gave Cross much thought。 However Shantel Tessier definitely made me pay attention in this one。 Alexa and Cross's chemistry was off the charts since page one。 I loved the shouting, in face your face moments。 Alexa didn't wanted to be treated like a princess, she didn't want gentle like love。 Cross didn't wanted to be treated like a victim, he didn't want to be seen a fragile。 They definitely didn't take "No" for an answer from each other and I was eating it u Talk about Hot!!To be honest, I never gave Cross much thought。 However Shantel Tessier definitely made me pay attention in this one。 Alexa and Cross's chemistry was off the charts since page one。 I loved the shouting, in face your face moments。 Alexa didn't wanted to be treated like a princess, she didn't want gentle like love。 Cross didn't wanted to be treated like a victim, he didn't want to be seen a fragile。 They definitely didn't take "No" for an answer from each other and I was eating it up。 This was perfect!! 。。。more

I can not get enough of these dark and gritty Kings。 And Cross is here at last!Cross has always been an obscured and tantalizing enigma- the blazing inferno burning in plain sight , but a fire so captivating that you fail to see the spark that ignited the embers。 Like all our Kings- he’s dark, twisted, deliciously demanding, and haunted。 Like his fire he can be dangerous and destructive, but also like fire he can be warm and sustaining。 THis was the side of Cross I was not expecting, and the pa I can not get enough of these dark and gritty Kings。 And Cross is here at last!Cross has always been an obscured and tantalizing enigma- the blazing inferno burning in plain sight , but a fire so captivating that you fail to see the spark that ignited the embers。 Like all our Kings- he’s dark, twisted, deliciously demanding, and haunted。 Like his fire he can be dangerous and destructive, but also like fire he can be warm and sustaining。 THis was the side of Cross I was not expecting, and the part of this story that really works。 Cross as a character is more than the heat of the flame- he’s the steady breath of the ember。 (enough fire references for you yet?!) Underneath the dark bravado and grit, is a man who deeply feels and cares。 A man who sacrifices for others。 He’s surprisingly soulful, endearingly thoughtful, at times fun and other times deeply tortured。 He’s intoxicating, and I love that his enigmatic aurora still exists for me even after I know him better。Alexa didn’t quite sparkle for me like her bestie- who is undoubtedly my favorite Shantel heroine, but I was pleased to see she can hold her own。 She’s fun, sassy, but also stoic and thoughtful。 There’s a maturity to her that belies her age - and that ends up creating a safe space for Cross to unfold before her。 A connection that deepens with her own drama。 Her combination of toughness with gentleness matches that very dynamic and Cross, and even though I felt there was a bit of instalove here, you do understand how they gravitate to one another。 They just seem to fit。 Cross the King, the man, is intriguing for me- his character arc the part of this story that truly shines。 Cross the story is perhaps not my favorite of the series, but it's Shantel- so it’s still a wild, sexy, and dark ride。 I did feel this had a bit more instalove than I’m used to from ST- so while it is clear these two are a perfect match for a lot of reasons, I wish we got to spend more time deepening and building their emotional connection and nuances in their chemistry。 This starts highly physical (and IT IS HOT) but then is more instalove- that still feels mostly physical。 I was also elated to see a prior couple’s story play an important part of this book as well since they are my favorite- but was not expecting my heart to hurt so much from that。 And the unexpected result is that my emotional energy got fixed on them for a bit (and did Cross and Alexa’s), which I think maybe dimmed Alexa and Cross’s own story for me for a bit。 But, I still adored them, and binged this in one sitting。 And, we get so much Kings action and more fun times with the best damn girl gang around。 I can’t believe we are nearing the end of this fantastic series- one king to go, and I think he’s gonna be the most difficult。 But, Shantel has left us with so many amazing character and spin-off potentials- I hope she plays around in this world for many more books to come! 。。。more

She is such a fabulous character, full of pep and sass and ready to rock and roll with her friends at the drop of a hat。 She is a business woman as well, and I can see even bigger things for her ahead, I truly hope we get to know more of her story。 This fast-paced story will hook you in right from the beginning and you’ll be absorbed in the story until the very last word。 All of the four Kings are full of darkness, often violent and never suffer fools。 Yet that’s only one side, an interesting and intriguing side of them all is what draws you in, there’s a need to know everything about these four guys。 Of course, now we know more about Titan, Grave and Cross—bring on Bones! 。。。more

So this book was HOT!!! Alexa and Cross have explosive chemistry from the start。 Alexa is a very strong female, and a great balance for Cross。 Shantel penned a story filled with drama, angst, and passion。 She always knocks her stories out of the park, and Cross was no different。

This is my new favorite Shantel Tessier book。 I love Cross and Alexa。 They are so good together。 I love that Alexa is strong and independent。 And she loves the dark side to Cross。 I like that she stood up for her self。 And went after what she wanted。 Cross has a trouble soul。 And Alexa is exactly what he needs。 And he will do everything to protect her。 This story was very well written。 Once I started I couldn’t put it down。 And I can’t wait for Bone’s story。
