About this listen

My boss. My enemy.

I escaped my life. Leaving everything behind wasn’t easy, but I did it. I turned the page and flew over the ocean.

This is my new beginning. My new chapter. My new book.

Or so I hoped before I met my new boss. Daniel Sterling. Rich as sin, illegally attractive, and the face of every magazine cover. Oh, and the reason why I escaped in the first place.

I made his high school life hell. He won’t stop until he gives me a taste of my own medicine.

Empire of Hate is a complete stand-alone. No other books should be listened to prior to this.

Wow

This road to a happy ever after was very rocky. So many misunderstandings that put them on the wrong path. Lucky they found their path. So many of the misunderstandings explained throughout the story. Loving this series.
Narration was awesome.

One of her best books! All the emotions

Loved this book. One of the best books by Rina. All the emotions. I cried with Nicole and cried for Nicole. Narrators did a fantastic job. Group chat continues.. Jonathon King with his grand daughter 🥰.. Rina did fantastic job. Now we patiently wait for King and Aspens story .. I think Zach needs his own
Book too 😍

Shane East and Rina Kent: MAGIC

"Empire of Hate" by Rina Kent, an audiobook that's equal parts intense, dramatic, and downright addictive and the the audiobook that kicked off my obsession with her stories way back in 2022and let me tell you, I was hooked from the very first chapter. It's what prompted me to dive headfirst into the Royal Elites Series, and I've been a fan of Rina's writing ever since. She's simply phenomenal.
Empire of Hate is performed in dual narration by the legendary Shane East and Christy Woods, this audiobook is a rollercoaster ride of emotions from start to finish.

Now, let's talk about Shane East—my absolute favourite British VO actor. His performance in "Empire of Hate" was nothing short of spectacular, bringing the characters to life in a way that only he can. And let's not forget about Daniel Stirling and those group chats! It was because of Shane's performance that I found myself pausing the book to go back and listen to the Royal Elites Series, just to immerse myself even further in the world of Levi King and Astrid, his BFF and the rest of those King and Royal Elites men that I love so much.

But let's get down to business. "Empire of Hate" is a story of, well, hate—filled with resentment, vengeance, and obsession. But beneath the surface, it's also a story of forgiveness, redemption, and unconditional love. Daniel and Nicole's relationship is messy, and complicated and will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
Daniel and Nicole—oh, where do I even begin? Their dynamic is fraught with tension and red flags, but somehow, against all odds, they find their way to each other. Their journey is messy and imperfect, but it's also incredibly raw and real. With past and present chapters, Rina skillfully weaves together their story, revealing the depths of their emotions and the complexities of their relationship.

And let's not forget about the audiobook narration. Shane East's portrayal of Daniel is simply deliciously sublime and authentic. Alongside Christy Woods, who brings a unique depth to her portrayal of Nicole, their performances are truly top-notch.
Overall, this is a must-listen, So grab your headphones and prepare for a wild ride with "Empire of Hate"! Trust me, you won't regret it.

Hated 90% of this book don’t know why it got such good reviews

The plot was just way too depressing, definitely not enough romance or flirting mixed in the the tragic misunderstanding between the main characters. The narrator’s were incredible but the plot had literally nothing redeeming about it. Just my opinion but I don’t often write negative reviews. Some of the plot might of been redeemed even if it was closer to 50% depressing.
