Series background & context
Wicked Villains is Katee Robert's dark, erotic romance world set in Carver City, where familiar villain names become nightclub owners, crime bosses, rivals, and lovers with sharp edges. The series is not interested in tidy fairy-tale morality. It asks what happens when the so-called villains get the romance.
The series opens with Desperate Measures, a Jafar and Jasmine power struggle built on a dangerous bargain. From there it moves through Hades, Hercules, Meg, Hook, Tink, Beast, Ursa, Ariel, Malone, Aurora, and more, always with control, consent, and power at the center.
Carver City runs on leverage.
These books are high heat and intentionally dark. They work best for readers who like retellings that flip sympathies, pair enemies together, and make negotiation part of the romance itself.
Read in order if you want to follow the city's shifting alliances and the consequences of each bargain.
