The Ritual by Shantel Tessier
4.0
Fuck.. I kept thinking the story could possibly get any crazier, but I get to the next chapter and holy shit.. It just gets wilder.
Ryat starts out as a completely apathetic asshole who is only after Blakely because she's is assigned as his chosen by the LORDs. Blakely however had no intentions of participating in the ritual, or becoming anyone's chosen, let alone Ryat's. Largely, because she is completely clueless to the existence of the entire ceremony.. That is until her bestie convinces her to go to the party at the House of LORDs.
Blakely's boyfriend, the man she has been arranged to marry, is part of the same secret society. She just so happens to bump into him at the party.. With another bitch on his arm. And he's taking the bitch as his chosen. The way this man irks every nerve in my body and makes me want to commit murder every time he opens his fucking mouth is demented.
Ryat on the other hand, is very matter of fact in his alpha behavior and his crazy displays of possessiveness over her. Essentially, he uses her as his own personal fuck toy just to piss of her ex. And she is enjoying every second of it. But when it becomes more than that his feelings for her come out in the most unhinged, but romantic way possible. And I'll be damned if he isn't now one of my favorite book boyfriends.
There is so much mystery surrounding why she is the assignment that Ryat was given, but damn.. When things all unfold, and the secrets are revealed, I thought I was going to DIE, bitch. All the twists and turns and ups and downs.. It's so wild and intense, I was on the edge of my seat the ENTIRE way through.
And the absolute SMUT in this book, omg, there is soooo much of it.. But I wouldn’t change a fucking thing. It's beautifully and deliciously intoxicating.
Now, if you need me I'll be making an appt with my therapist to discuss the visceral need to relive Blakely's POV and how much I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
