King of Corium by C. Hallman
My rating: 4.5 of 5 stars

King of Corium: A Dark Bully Romance I have to tell you that once I started reading this book I COULDN’T PUT IT DOWN!!! It was like a moth drawn to a flame! I had to keep reading. And I knew without a shadow of doubt that I would be left with a cliffhanger and it happened! There is a HUGE cliffhanger!

Corium University was “where the most dangerous criminals send their offspring”.

Quinton Rossi was the son of a Mafia Leader. Aspen Mather’s father squealed.

Aspen is targeted for being a RAT. Not because she did anything but for what her father did. Corium is supposed to be her safest place to live, at least they are not allowed to kill each other. ALL the staff and students don’t like her because she is the daughter of a snitch. Quinton Rossi makes sure she knows she isn’t safe and some of the things that happen to Aspen are indescribable.

Now I will say that the abuse is way over the top. Proceed with trepidation if you choose to read this book. There are triggers for some. If you are one of these people my advice would be don’t read this book.

I really enjoyed reading this book and it has an OMG cliffhanger ending!!! I can’t wait to read Drop Dead Queen. It can’t get here soon enough!

Bettina’s Book Review: 4 Stars

King of Corium

By JL Beck & C. Hallman

️

Poor Aspen, she didn’t sign up for this life, unfortunately she was born into it and to a father who didn’t know the meaning a loyalty. Now she’s paying the price for his actions. Quinton’s family was betrayed by Aspen’s father and he doesn’t mind making her suffer the consequences. At Corium University Quinton’s last name holds more power than the dean and what he says go. Aspen wonders why did her parents think is was safe for her to attend this school instead of going where she wanted. Will she survive her first year or will her parents live to regret sending her there?

Honestly I really enjoyed this book. While there are a lot of unrealistic aspects to it I was able to look past it and enjoy it fo what it was. This is as close to the kind of dark books I like to read. Consent is questionable at times and Quinton is a big a**. I can’t wait to read book 2!! I highly recommend this book to others to read! I am looking forward to reading Moore books from this author duo!!

Blurb:
She came here for protection, but that’s the last thing she’s going to find.

Welcome to Corium University, where the most dangerous criminals in the world send their offspring. Assassins, mafia leaders, arms dealers and art thieves.

You name it, this college houses them.

Here nothing can touch them.

Upon arriving I knew Aspen would be here, she was the daughter of our enemy, a snake in the grass like her father. I had no intention of sparring with her. That is until she opened her pretty little mouth. One sentence and she became my next target, and a woman that I would do anything to see on her knees at my feet.

If she thought the university was the only nightmare she would have to face, she was wrong.

I was the king, and this was my kingdom.

**King of Corium is a dark new adult, enemies to lovers romance, that contains dark themes, including dub-con, and non-con. It is not a standalone novel.**
