The Dark Lord’s Guide to Dating (and Other War Crimes) by Tiffany Hunt

Guides to Villainy and Love · Book 1 of 2

Step One: Kidnap someone cute. Step Two: Force her into marriage. Step Three: Try not to get feelings.

Dark Lord Kazimir Blackrose kidnaps Lady Arabella and forces her into marriage, expecting a suitably obedient bride.

Instead, she greets him with a knife at his throat and a list of demands.

Kazimir needs Arabella’s heroic bloodline to secure ultimate dominion, but after a lifetime of being treated like property, she has no intention of making his conquest easy. Being abducted by the realm’s most notorious villain is simply another problem she refuses to face quietly.

His campaign of villainous seduction soon descends into magical training, golf played with the eyeballs of his enemies and romantic dinners that fail with spectacular consistency.

Between jealous former lovers, dangerous magic and a forced proximity neither can escape, the Dark Lord and his unwilling wife discover something more frightening than war: they may actually be falling for each other.

This wickedly funny dark romantasy blends forced marriage, enemies to lovers, one bed, touch-her-and-die devotion and explicit romance with a villain who finally meets someone completely unimpressed by his reputation.
