BLURB
His family dared to challenge mine, so I am going to ruin themโฆ starting with stealing his bride.
ย
Only a cold-hearted villain would destroy an innocent bride’s special day over a business deal gone badโฆ
Which is why I choose this precise moment to disrupt New York High Society’s most anticipated wedding of the season.
ย
As I am Luc Manwarring, II, billionaire heir to one of the most powerful families in the country, no one is brave enough to stop me.
ย
My revenge plan is deceptively simple: humiliate the groom, then blackmail the bride’s family into coercing the bride into marrying me instead.
ย
My ruthless calculations do not anticipate my reluctant bride having so much fight and fire in her.
At every opportunity, she resists my dominance and control, even going so far as trying to escape my dark plans for her.
ย
She is only supposed to be a means to an end, an unwilling player in my game of revenge.
But the more she challenges me, the more I begin to wonderโฆ who is playing who?
ย
Tearing off the gilded veneer of elite privilege exposes the sordid scandals, dark secrets, and taboo desires of New York’s jaded high society in this dark romance series from best friends and USAT Bestselling authors Zoe Blake and Alta Hensley, writing under their new pen name, Blake Hensley.

The More I Hate by Blake HensleyTanya’s rating: 5 of 5 stars
The More I Hate is the first book in the Gilded Decadence Series and written by two authors Zoe Blake and Alta Hensley. They have written other books together but now they are Blake Hensley and I dearly love reading their books!
This is Luc Manwarring and Amelia Astridโs story. There is nothing like having a narcissist mother like Amelia has! I am happy that there was someone to protect her.
Luc says he is a cold-hearted villain but he isnโt. Well maybe, kind ofโฆโฆ He might start off that way with Amelia and to the world he just might be cold-hearted and ruthless. He is especially that way with Ameliaโs mother. And no one deserves it more that the mother does.
I loved reading their story. I didnโt want the story to end and especially end the way it did! Yep, cliffie!
Book Two is Then Hate Me and I canโt wait to get my hands on this next book!!! I hope it comes out sooner than later!
