From #1 Amazon bestselling author T L Swan, comes the seductive world of forbidden luxury, where nothing is as it seems. Welcome to the addiction that is Kings Of The Riviera

He was never meant to be anything more than a memory.

But now he’s back… and more magnetic than ever.

Three years after a secret weekend in the Swiss Alps, Alora Sorenson thought she’d completely moved on from the mysterious man who turned her world upside down. That is until Edward Prescott walks back into her life: richer, more powerful, and even harder to resist.

As the billionaire owner of the world’s largest casino empire, Edward is the definition of untouchable. He’s a dark, commanding force in a world of high society, luxury yachts, and ruthless enemies.

Alora prefers a serene and simple life, surrounded by antiques and vintage fashion.
She doesn’t belong in his world, and yet… she’s never stopped wanting him.

But behind his intoxicating charm lie hidden dangers, and in the shadows of the Riviera, will the past reemerge and destroy everything?

Secrets brought them together.

But will they also tear them apart?

Wow wow wow TL - you’ve done it again another stonking, heart stoping, funny and gut wrenching, emotional piece of writing. I started listening on my way home from holidays in italy and was still sitting up at 2 am this morning because I couldn’t stop listening till the last words were uttered. What an amazing heroine in Alora the wise cracks, the laugh out loud comments, the vulnerability and the courage of her character (yes, in another realm I want to come back in my next life as Alora) and Edward a flawed man battling his demons who finds his salvation in Alora. This so fantastically written that you are pulled along on rollercoaster and immersed in their love story. TL makes you feel each laugh, each tear, each emotion.
A special shout out for the Oscar winning performances of the 2 narrators - Shane East (love this man, he could read the telephone book and I’d sit there dory-eyes listening) and Victoria Connolly feisty great voice bringing every word alive) .
I discovered your books not so long ago and am steadily working my way through each one - but this has been my absolute favourite so far and I just have one bone to pick with you -why are you making us wait till feb 2027 for the sequel, I’m not sure I can bear waiting till then for the rest of Alora and Edwards’ story. Any chance you can bring the release forward? Please.

I love T L Swan’s books. Eagerly awaiting the next one when it is published. Part of the love is the humour, the banter between the main characters and the happy endings. We now have to wait until February 2027 to find out what happens next and if id know the book was going to end on such a grisly cliffhanger I would have waited until both books were out. Disappointed as it feels like a let down to me when I was hoping for the usual light and uplift the books usually bring.

Disappointed by ending

Wow! I can’t wait for the next book! You mastered it, as usual. From the very first page, I was completely hooked, and I couldn’t put it down. The characters felt so real, the emotions hit perfectly, and every twist kept me wanting more. Your storytelling is incredible, and you always know how to keep readers invested until the very end. Thank you for another amazing read—I already can’t wait to see what happens next!

LOVE IT!!!!

I cannot wait for the next installment. The performances were next level. I highly recommend if you're a fan of slightly toxic MMCs!

So gripping!

I absolutely love all things TL Swan, and I preordered this in anticipation of another 5 star book, however, I have DNF as the male narrator is just to shouty/agressive and over the top, I understand he is meant to be dominant and controlling however, the male narrator has completely missed the mark on this one and it has ruined it for me. The female narrator has nailed it, however, it's like two different books and it's hard to listen to them both together as a pair. However, I am not giving up as I know TL Swan does not disappoint, I am going to read the kindle version from scratch and hope that this book will come to life as it was meant too.

Male narrator made me DNF :(
