HIS UNTAMEABLE WICKEDNESS Kindle Edition

3.4 out of 5 stars 9 ratings
“You love to hurt, I love to hurt. A perfect f*cking match we make.” ~ Adrian


LEO
A three-letter word made me a murderess at the age of eight years. But having experienced the curses of that word, I was done with men as I grew up. All men.
Except to outplay them in the New York financial
arena.
Then Crowned Sex enthroned in gorgeous velvet
charm and lustful gallantry storms into my life.
Spewing volcanic lava on my monumental arctic ice block. With the unapologetic fierceness of a savage god. Wearing crackling thunderbolts straight from the god Zeus. Explosive has nothing on it.

Adrian isn't hot, he's fucking hellish. He embarks on melting my ice block at the speed of lightning. But I was done with men.
I was done with sex. For ever. I. Was.

ADRIAN

I scented her darkness from the moment I was told
about her.
The sight of her sealed my decision. She was the woman created for my own darkness. I set off to protect her even from herself. Protect her to claim.
Fuse her darkness with my own. For. Myself.
I'd fended women off me with bazookas when I was done but they weren't. I wasn't prepared for the battle I soon fought. Not only with her but also with her family. And New York's billionaire gangsters who own
entourages of corrupt cops and politicians. With every battle I won, she started new darker wars around me.
You ate or you were eaten. Not even starving was an option.


NOTE: Although the blurb is in the first person, the story of Leo and Adrian is written in the third person. This story contains adult material including explicit sex and violence. You've been warned.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

The multi-award-winning author A P Von K'Ory was born in Kisumu, the capital city of Luoland, Kenya, to the Luo royal houses of K'Orinda and Yimbo. She was sent to a public (which means private, outside of the UK) school in Yorkshire, England when she was too young to say "sod off". She studied Economics, Literature, and Journalism in London, graduating with firsts as a journalist from the London School of Journalism, as well as an economist from the London School of Economics.

A P is the winner of six awards from four continents, the last one being the Achievers Award for African Writer of the Year 2013 in the Netherlands. The Selmere Integration Prize was awarded her in 2014 for her engagement in helping African Women in the Diaspora cope with a variety of domestic and social problems. The Proposal, a short story, won the Cook Communications first prize in 2010 and is published in an American anthology Africa 2012. In 2012, she won the Karl Ziegler Prize for her commitment to bring African culture to Western society in various papers, theses, and lectures. Again in 2012, her book Bound to Tradition: The Dream was nominated for the 2012 Caine Prize by the Author-me Group, Sanford, and in 2013 she was shortlisted for the Commonwealth Writers Prize.

Her large extended family stretches from the Nilotes of Eastern Africa to France and the Walloons (Belgium) of Western Europe. She lectures Economics and Sociology in Austria, Germany and Switzerland. She’s migratory and – weather willing – lives in Germany, France, Cyprus, and Greece.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Good story!!
    Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2022
    This is the first in a new series, and the first time I have read any of this authors’ work, and I will certainly be looking out for her work in the future. Leo survived a traumatic childhood, and she is resilient, strong, and wealthy, and has worked hard to be in the place she in now and is adamant that nobody will take this away from her. When Adrian comes into her life, she was not prepared for him, and they may be opposites like petrol and a match, but they complement each other perfectly. This is a good story which is intriguing, and entertaining, and enjoyable. I look forward to reading more from this author, and I recommend this story.

    2.0 out of 5 stars Didn’t work for me, unfortunately!
    Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2022
    Leo escaped a traumatic childhood with a monster, growing strong because of it. She’s wealthy and established in New York, and she feels confident about where things are going for her. But when someone forces her mom into an overdose, and a man she loathes worms her way back into her life, Leo must fight to control the chaos that has returned.

    Unfortunately, this story just wasn’t for me. From the beginning, I struggled with it, and even though I was hoping I would get into it eventually, it just didn’t end up happening. I was confused on certain aspects of the plot and backstory, and I didn’t really feel the chemistry between Leo and Adrian. Both were very aggressive, which isn’t an issue in and of itself, but I felt that it was over the top at times, especially when Leo would do things such as stomp or yell at Adrian; these actions were just a bit childish to me. This was a quick read, and I enjoyed getting POVs from both main characters, but sadly, His Untameable Wickedness isn’t a new favorite of mine.

    TW for abuse, attempted rape, sexual content, loss of loved one, coma, violence, murder.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Series Starter With a Gritty & Dark Tale of Past Pain Bringing Together Two Brash People…..
    Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2022
    Into the joy and happiness of the holidays comes this dark and suspenseful tale of two people bruised by their pasts who find themselves connecting in a combustible journey to HFN. With this being a series starter, the author has a lot to present in laying the groundwork for what's to come here and in the future. With each turn of the page readers are shown the darkness and pain these two endured to get where they are, shown the depravity of those meant to protect, and it makes for a difficult read at times. After witnessing those childhood scenes, readers are introduced to adults who grew stronger because of their painful pasts. They didn't let the pain and heartbreak define them but forged a path to fortune and success. With Leo, she's worked hard to get where she is, and has no intention of losing everything. She's sworn off men, but when Adrian enters the picture she's completely thrown for a loop. She and Adrian had a crackling connection from the very start! They had a connection teeming with erotic foreplay, a strong push/pull where each tried to outdo the other, in a journey that kept me on the edge of my seat. While keeping my attention I found the connection between them wasn’t as heartfelt as I’d hoped, but with their pasts it’s no surprise that they still have trouble truly bonding in a mature and meaningful way. With them, it felt like a constant battle. Along with Adrian coming into her life, Leo has a face from the past who's returned to wreak havoc once again on her life in numerous suspenseful twists and turns.

    There are a number of triggers along the way, moments between Leo and Adrian as well as the return of a villain from her childhood who's determined to wreck the person she's become, to make this an emotionally intense tale. So let that be your warning! For those drawn to dark reads, those that want a unique tale with erotically-charged scenes between two people leery of showing their softer sides, then pick this one up and give it a go!

    5.0 out of 5 stars A strong MC duo, with plenty of intrigue mixed into the romance
    Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2022
    The start of this book is hard to read - not because it isn't well-written, but because it jumps right into the abuse and violence. (I was not expecting to encounter it so soon in the story, but I kept reading after the initial shock wore off, and I'm glad I did). The story itself is intriguing, with enough tension to keep you turning pages. Leo and Adrian are great characters, with such vastly different backgrounds. It was interesting to see how they interacted as the story played out, and I loved that neither of them was willing to back down. If you love a strong MC duo, with plenty of intrigue mixed into your romance, you're going to love this one!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Dark Love Story
    Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2022
    This is Book 1 in the Untameable Series and my first read by this author, and I must say that I quite enjoyed the storyline and the characters. It is a steamy opposites attract romance between Leo and Adrian. These flawed characters and the unique plot make for an intriguing read. It is a dark love story with enough drama, steam, danger, suspense, revenge, frustrating moments, sweetness, twists and turns, and engaging secondary characters to keep the reader interested. A wild ride with a happy for now ending. Please note that there may be triggers for some readers due to sensitive content.

    I received an Advance Reader Copy of this book from Grey's Promotions and am voluntarily leaving my honest review.

    2.0 out of 5 stars I couldn’t stay engaged with the story
    Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2022
    Leo grew up in a very abusive and life altering childhood.
    But she crawled from the bottom up.
    And what she’s achieved she won’t let anyone take it away from her.
    But unfortunately the past clashes with her present and threats her future.
    Ms. Von K’Ory is a new to me author and I’m always excited being introduced to new work.
    The blurb intrigued me and I really wanted to read this book.
    But unfortunately I found it hard to connect with the story.
    The way it’s written made it hard for me to stay interested and engaged in the book.
    I struggled and was confused at different points in the story.
    And I didn’t feel any connection with Leo and Adrian.
    I think it was the writing style of the author that made it difficult for me.
