“she's a burst of light in my dark, erupting life in the rotting depths

of my soul. she is everything i don't deserve. but i'm going to keep her anyway.”

the feminine rage in this book was so beautifully written. i feel for auren and i hope she gets what she deserves when all is said and done, because this girl deserve the whole world. i could not put this down once i picked it up again (other reads got in the way, i fear) and there were so many twists and turns near the end that had my jaw dropping like crazy. i think i was sweating and having heart palpitations for the last third of the book lol. this was so. freaking. good.

4.5

This series is getting crazy in a wonderful way! I immediately started the next one street finishing this one. The romance is everything you want from a dark-brooding type, the main character is so easy to root for and praise. The more you read, the more layers are exposed and mind is blown continuously. The only reason for docking .5 star is the pacing can be a bit slow sometimes to the point I put down the book and don’t pick it back up for a bit. That ending though!

This story is shaping up to be so incredible!!

I'm absolutley dead over this book. Seeing Auren snap hersekf out of the chains she's been confined in her whole life basically and breaking herself out was something I didn't know I needed. I can already tell that this story is going to be so so special to me and I can't even say how many tears I shed while reading this (and I'm not a crier!).

Also, can I just say... Slade the man that you are. I love how he's just honestly down for his woman. And I love the whole wrath, but i feel liek that goes without saying.

Slade Ravinger, King of Fourth, and rotter of things is quickly becoming one of my new favorite beings. The way he was completely wrecked from Auren admitting that she wants him to him not being afraid of the Gold power taking over her had me swooning. Team Rot all the way!
