Wicked Knight: A Dark Mafia, High School Bully Romance (Knight's Ridge Empire Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.5 out of 5 stars 4,551 ratings

A binge-worthy dark mafia romance series from the USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author, Tracy Lorraine.

The truth is meant to set you free… but not my truth.

Mine has sent me deeper and darker, feeding my need for revenge. I want blood for those who wronged me and my family. And my so-called truth is ripping me apart, in a way lies never could.

Everyone else has moved on, but I can’t. Not until someone pays.

And it seems that fate is on my side this time, because the hellion girl from the graveyard is going to be my saving grace… and provide me with everything I crave.

The pain.

The vengeance.

The blood.

She has no idea what she’s been dragged into, but she’s going to regret every step she’s taken to get here.

Stella Doukas isn’t like any other girl I’ve encountered before.

She’s fierce, determined, and much stronger than I anticipated.

I might have met my match.

And that is not a good thing…


Dear readers,

Wicked Knight is the first book in my new angst-filled new adult mafia series, and the first of Stella and Seb's trilogy.
This is my darkest bully romance yet. If the following doesn't get your pulse racing in all the right ways, you might want to miss this one out...
Dub/non-con, bullying, knife and blood play, mutilation, humiliation, somnophilia, sexual violence, exhibitionism/voyeurism. You have been warned. Enjoy!

Holy-Hotness!!! ❤️‍🔥💋🔥
“I don’t share my toys, Hellion.” - Seb 🔥💋 Holy-Hotness! I’m still reeling from the insane cliffhanger at the end of this UNPUTDOWNABLE dark bully HS romance, and I don’t say that lightly…I. AM. WRECKED.! “I want to hurt you. Punish you. Ruin you. Break you…” - Seb Tracy Lorraine’s first book of her new high school bully romance, Wicked Knight, is everything a dark mafia romance should be—swift, racy, and twisted! Stella Doukas is FIERCE, where Sebastian is FIERY! And the two together, make for the best push/pull dynamic. “This thing between us, it’s lethal. And if we’re going to continue with whatever this is, then one of us is going to end up burned. Badly.” Overall, I was engaged throughout the book, and left wanting to know what will become of Stella, Seb, and the remaining bad boys & girls in this steamy mafia romance series. This rating was given for the author’s ability to entertain through continuous world building, character development, and twisted angst. “I want to hate him, but it’s hard when he gives me the escape I crave.” - Stella If you enjoy a quick build, sizzling ebbs and flows that dare to push the line, then I highly recommend this book. I reviewed an early copy voluntarily, and look forward to future novels by the author. **Trigger warning: Sensitive subject matters are evident in this novel, which some may find offensive, including dub/non-con, knife and blood play, mutilation, humiliation, exhibitionism/voyeurism.**

    Stella Doukas only knows that Sebastian hates her. She has know idea why, especially since she has only been in London a really short time and before that in Florida. What in the world could she have done that would make this ruthless guy despise everything about her? Being raised by her single dad and after moving around a lot, she ended up in Florida where she had great friends and was in cheer. Until her dad moves her to London suddenly. She has no idea what awaits her, but Seb and the rest of the guys have big plans. Seb’s goal is to make Stella’s life as unpleasant as possible and thankfully his friends, his brothers, have his back. They don’t hold the grudge that he does and when Stella proves she is so much more than a pretty face, these guys have more than they bargained for. As Stella, meets everything Seb throws her way, she finds that she will have to lean on the two friends she has made. Because we all know girl drama is always an issue, especially when you are beautiful and fight back. As Seb fights the feelings he has for Stella he realizes that she was actually the fight he has been looking for, but it might be too late.

    Seriously, when a female is this strong you know she has been dealt a difficult time. Not necessarily her upbringing as much as always having to fight to prove herself. She hates that Sebastian can push and pull her so much, but she continues to fall into him. Sebastian is holding a huge grudge and has a reason, or so he believes to hate Stella and her dad. Now that they are back, he vows to make them pay. This cast of characters, not just Stella and Seb, but all of the crew give you glimpses into all the moving pieces. This trilogy is going to be amazing, I can just tell.

    I love this series of Knight Ridge Empire. (I am currently reading Nico's story which is the 5th trilogy in this series so I know more than I did when I first started with this book Wicked Knight. After reading as far in as I have I feel like American readers need to be updated on really what to expect. It says High School but the author says 12th and 13 year and even college at some points in the series. I feel like it could be both and that the author got caught up between the two for us that could either be high school or college. This trilogy of Seb and Stella and the next trilogy of Theo both feel like they are more high school but by the time we get to Toby and even Calli's trilogies, they feel almost college-level and less high school. that being said they are great stories but expect UK English instead of American some minor grammar issues that can be fixed in the later trilogies but overall I am in book 13 so it nots overly done mistakes that cant be overlooked.

    *Read the prequel short!* I didn’t know it existed until the end of book 3, ha-ha.
    I LOVED this book! It’s got a ton of spice, and angst, and drama, and the most bad*ss female lead!! I adore Stella. She knows what she wants, and she works for it! She has a life, and a backstory, with friends and hobbies that you see continue to be important, even as she makes new friends (girls and guys! Yay).
    The friction and heat between Stella and Sebastian is so good! I totally thought we were going reverse-harem in this book, though we do not (and there will not be in the later books for Stella/Seb either). There’s quite a bit of exhibitionism/voyeurism though!
    I feel like the trigger warnings oversold a little (yes, I’m the type to read the trigger warnings to see if the spicy stuff is going to check my boxes). I wish there was a bit more, but I did so enjoy what we had!! I’d rather a trigger warning go too far and protect sensitive folks anyway, so well-done there. May I add that the guy calls the gal ‘whore’ the entire freaking first 3 books though?! I had to substitute another word in my head at times because it was way overused. Pet names or sexy-time names or insults can get really repetitive fast, and they use the same one for everything Stella related. Ugh. She’s a bad*ss, let’s call her that, huh?
    I also appreciate how the author calls out fangirling over mafia shows and MC stuff like Sons of Anarchy, when that’s what the book is about. Nice little side plug for other ways to get our fix of the good stuff.
    Awesome book, wonderful trilogy for this couple, excited to read the additional books in this series and the spinoffs.

    If you are looking for a hot, new adult, mafia, bully romance this is the book for you. Stella and Seb practically burn up the page. The chemistry between them is amazing.

    Stella is a tough lady who takes no BS from anyone, even the kings of the school. I love that even later in the story she does not turn into a simpering little girl that waits for Seb to rescue her. The definition of self-rescuing princess.

    Poor Seb did not know what he was in for. Stella turns his world upside down. No matter how much he wants to hate her, he desires her more and nothing will stop him from having her.

    This whole series was so good, I could not put it down.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Hold on tight, it’s a wild ride
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 28, 2022
    Wow! What a wild ride. If you’ve read the Rosewood series you’ll have met Stella and already know she’s a wild card, and if you’ve read Wicked Summer Knight you’ll have met Seb and seen his darkness and witnessed them both together and you’ll just know their story is going to be explosive. Now bearing all that in mind I think it’s still not enough to prepare you for the wickedly wild ride this book takes you on. Every single character is amazingly and adds to the sheer intensity of this book, and also brings their own brand of humour and enjoyment in winding each other up.
    The darkness and the bullying is vastly overshadowed by the intense pull Seb and Stella have toward each other. They say there’s a fine line between love and hate, well I don’t think there’s a line there at all with these two. Seb wants to hate her so much, to hurt and break her, but he simply can’t stop from being impressed by her and drawn to her. And what a cliff hanger! I literally couldn’t believe that there were no more pages left, I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen and who’s ass Seb is going to kick.

    Review after reading Wicked Trilogy (Seb & Stella)

    Ok, so I thought that book 1 in the Knight's Ridge would be about Emmie as it continues from Rebel Ink but I'm glad it was put in this order.

    There are warnings before you read this book and PLEASE listen to them. This series is very dark Mafia not just Mafia. There is alot of swearing, violent scenes including violent s*x scenes and it's not until you get to the second book does that calm down. So keep reading on!!

    If you have read other Mafia books the girl always gets her own back so keep reading and don't get hung up on the use & abuse of Stella because she well and truly get her own back. But also it helps to set the book up for who Stella & Seb really are and what the truth ends up coming out.

    Tracy has done a good job in releasing the details about each characters life and past and also creating characters that are more than perfect for each other. It's very rare we get a MFC like Stella who is more than dark, dangerous and twisted as the MMC or other male characters. It's refreshing.

    I wasn't sure if I was going to continue reading the series with the way the boys used girls and their constant language about it. The humiliation scene got me; but I powered through and I was glad I did; because Stella more than returns the favour but also she's glad she finally has someone that gets her dark mind.
