He asked me to love him, so I engraved his name onto my heart.He craved my loyalty, so I let him feast on my soul.I wanted a husband, but he gave me a monster.So, I made it my pet. The lines between what was real and what wasn’t were blurred.Our story was a lie.Until now.
This series is how I discovered Amo Jones. I am so happy I did. This is book that captivates you and has you begging for more. Amazing book!
Holy shiteeee get ready for the ride of your life.
Crowned By Fate is the 2nd installment of crowned series. This book can not be read as a standalone. It’s been a few years since Crowned By Hate was released and left us with one killer Cliffhanger but let me just say it was so worth the wait..
This beauty unravels all the lies and deception but not before your mind is completely blown away.
My only advice going in, is nothing is what it seems. Buckle up peeps the queen of darkness has outdone herself with this book.
If I can give it more than 5 stars I would. Let me tell you I was so excited to finally get the second book of this duet.. The twists and turns, the shocking things that happened once you turn the page. You thought you had an idea b ut you don’t. Everytime Amo Jones comes out with a book you need to get it lol.. This baby is a one click.
Amo Jones is the master of trickery… her books will keep you guessing and this one was no different. NOTHING is what it seems, there was so many twists and turns in this story but it was OH SO entertaining! So many great characters in this book, secrets, lies and some very steamy scenes make this a book that was very hard to put down! If you haven’t then you’ll want to one click this series, it’s not one you want to miss!
I thought ‘Crowned by Hate’ blew my mind, but ‘Crowned by Fate’ took things to a whole new level of crazy awesomeness. It was a twisted masterpiece, woven between the pages….
It sucked me in from the start and held me captive till the bitter end. I couldn’t believe what I was reading as everything unfolds. It was full of action, suspense, and jaw dropping moments. My kindle almost didn’t survive.
This is definitely a story you need to read and experience for yourself. It’s not for the faint hearted though. Highly recommend if you are a lover of dark romance. Never read anything like this before….SO GOOD!!!
Can’t wait to read more by this author.
I have definitely missed Bryant and Isa. This story has been almost 3 years in the making and the wait was worth every minute. The conclusion of the Royal’s story is just as twisted as the first book. So many questions, assumptions, omissions of truth that we finally, after all this time, get our answers to. But that’s not to say that their story is wrapped up in a neat little bow, nope, this story is anything but. The crazy, psychotic, fly off the handle at the drop of a hat that is Isa reminds us that she is the only one for the deceptive, 3 steps ahead of everyone else, always in control Bryant. Theirs is a dynamic that is more push than pull, but there is nothing that either wouldn’t do for the other. The story is dark, twisted and full of the angst, suspense and mind games that we’ve come to know and love from this author.
Disclaimer: I was provided an advance reader copy by the publisher in exchange for my unbiased review and opinions.
Isa and Bryant’s relationship is toxic AF. They don’t care about my opinion or yours. Their twisted love is all-encompassing and there’s not a sin that will get in the way. You’ve been warned…buckle up, buttercup!
out of
This duet is my first plunge into Amo Jones’ world and it did not disappoint. I am relatively new to dark romance and I was sucked in from the first paragraph. Twisted, emotional, dark..it was everything I thought it would be and more! Mind fucks galore, this is not a story for the faint of heart!
I’ll be honest, if I’d had to wait three years for the conclusion of this duet, it would’ve driven me a bit nuts, so thank the universe for small favors! This book is like strapping into your favorite rollercoaster ride: adrenaline, is pumping when you sit down, you scream the whole ride, but when are finally back on the ground, a big smile, your skin tingling..you can’t help but say, damn, that was good!
Five for Crowned by Fate
This book had me craving to finish it. I don’t think I could put this down, at times I had to force myself to put it down and just process what was going on. If you think book one was crazy, you are in for a RUDE awakening. There were many times throughout the book where I thought I was confident on what was going to happen. I was so sure of myself, many times. Yet, here I am an hour after finishing the book with my jaw still on the floor. WHAT? Amo Jones. How do you do this to me every damn time I read your books. I should know what to expect, right?
Guys, this is an absolute must read. If you are looking for a crazy, dark, twisted read that messes with your mind in the good old fashion Amo Jones way, THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU! Read it, read it, read it!!
I received an eARC of this book in exchange for an honest review
Wow. What a whirlwind!
First, if you are looking to read this Duet and did not care much for the first book, keep going. This book is so much better than the first! Amo’s writing is great and is what I expected of her stories. There were a few inconsistencies but this book is much easier read and follow along with. Even with all the twists and turns and revelations and lies! There were a lot!! It made for a very interesting read. Isa is so strong and even though Bryant is a big a-hole, he loves her and always has her back. The ending was great and I’m so glad I decided to finish this duet!
Hey Ms. Amo, it’s me again, just checking in to say: YOU DID THAT!
Crowned by Fate was everything. It was such a thrill to read and although you took me through the ringer with this DUET it was so worth it!
Did not see that coming
One of my favorite characteristics with Jones’ writing is how she untwists the insanity –
If you read the first in this duet then I’m sure like me you came out the other side having absolutely no idea what in the blazes was going on
And yet
You were salivating for more!
As Fate begins things are just as Topsy turfy as when Hate ended
Then slowly – like an onion as each layer that was peeled back –
I began to see
It was painful
It was a touch blinding at times
I had to step back , compose myself , fight my inner child who wanted to scrap the whole emotional journey thing and just read the final chapters
But I held her in check
And WOW!
There were so many layers
so many devious twists and delightful little surprises
I want more from this cast
I need a bit of time to process everything
To gather my wits and embrace the insanity
Until then?
Don’t pass up this duet
Stunning , twisted conclusion to a total mind blown book!!! Lana~White Hot Reads
I thought Crowned by Hate was intense, but Crowned by Fate is even more. All the twist and turns you don’t see coming makes your head spin but in the most fascinating way possible. Amo has a way with her writing when you think you know what’s going on happen then bam your like WTF just happened. The dynamics between all the characters is stunning.
The conclusion of this Crowned duet, this will blow you away, nothing is as it seems, just when you think you have it all figured out Amo goes and drops another bomb and blows your theories out the window!! Ensure you have read the first part of this duet first!
A dark and twisted read that will leave you never knowing which way is up!! It really keeps you on your toes trying to work out whats going on and who’s on who’s side… such a riveting read!!
Bryant and Isa are wild and crazy, but that’s how they work! Bryant is pure alpha, powerful, domineering and extremely hot, but with Isa you see a softer and more vulnerable side. Isa is wild, fierce, sassy and so beautifully brave, having been through hell and back yet she still has fight in her, and pushing Bryant’s buttons is what she does best. Add Devon to this mix, her best friend in forever, with some dark links with Bryant you would never have guessed, his partying ways, the sexual tension!!!
A great read, full of dark suspense, a psychological thriller of a read that will keep you guessing right until the end!
This author knows how to strikes – HARD and with the proper aim to our guts and rip our hearts out of our bodies, and you know what it was so so good!
Take your sanity and what you know, put it in your hand, open the window and throw it outside with all your might! Done? So now you can sit and enjoy reading Crowned by Fate, as this state will be needed for 100%. You can’t read this story as a standalone so please make sure that you read and remember what had happened in Crowned by Hate – it’s a MUST.
Isa is a fighter, a force that will make you fall to your knees! She’s a goddess in all her glory, you will think that she’s weak for a second and she will make you bow to her and kiss her feet as well. I love her – I love how she’s strong in every bomb that is thrown at her in this book and how she goes after Bryant, she’s in her very own might league.
Bryant – I loved him in CBH, here I had a moment where I decided him for a whole, but with the book going I fell for him EVEN HARDER than before. He’s dominant, aggressive and knows what he wants. You will want to punch him more then once, but if this is your kind of man you will also want to do what he says to the t!
Mrs. Jones is a mastermind when it comes to creating twists that will blow your mind. This story is not something that was pretty or happy, it had left me in the en with bittersweetness on my tongue, yet it’s so PERFECT for those characters and I could not imagine any better for Isa ad Bryant!
A perfect present for my birthday! What a stunning conclusion to the amazing story of Isa and Bryant…
Isa and Bryant… an explosive couple, who ruins everyone and everything on the way to their happiness. Poor Isa had to endure unspeakable, but Bryant will always be here to hold her, to protect her with everything… He is devil, the worst kind of a devil, yet he is the savior.. She is the rebel, yet such fragile…. Devil and rebel… their paths could not not cross… Amazing…
If you seek for an heartbreaking story, with shocking twists, ups and downs, Crowned duet is for you. You will never be disappointed.
***5 mindblowing stars***
“Not all truths should rise. Some should be doused in lies and remain buried.-Isa”
Honestly, i don’t know how Amo is doing it!!!!
Her writing is addictive and their characters, no matter how good or bad, are pulling you under their spell!!!!
I don’t have to tell you that this book have to be read after “Crowned by Hate”, right??? It is a given!!!!
Well, after that ending in the first book, i was losing my mind with assumptions!!!!
What the hell had happened??? What the hell will happen???
“I sunk deeper and deeper into oblivion. The unknown. The darkness that holds no promises.”
The truth is that i was never prepared of the truths that this book revealed….
There were so many secrets and lies in here after all, so many fucked up games!!!!
But i loved every single moment in here, even much more than the first book!!!!
But honestly, i didn’t know what to believe in some point…
What was the truth and what was the lie???
Amo is very skillful to play with your mind. No????
“My name is Isa Royal.
Bryant Saint Royal is my husband.
I didn’t have to fear death, I am death. It follows me everywhere.”
Well, Isa is in a bad place at the moment. Everything are tumbling down around her…
She don’t know what to believe…. What is truth and what is a lie??? Who is with her and who is against her???
And the things got more complicated when the love of her life seems to be against her too!!!!
She had trusted him and he had betrayed her and now, the only thing she wants is … revenge!!!!
“Part of my heart has broken beyond repair. Not all wounds can be fixed.”
“Trust. That word is supposed to be one of promise, a display of loyalty and love. It’s nothing but another lie to me.”
Well, I can not say much more, but nothing was as it seemed in here…
Isa and Bryant for once again were in the same place, but miles apart of each other….
The hatred had made for once again its appearance, but their strong love was shining from time to time confusing the things furthermore…
What was real after all???? What was the game that everyone was playing???
Is there a hope for this great, fucked up love to be salvageable???
“Be careful, okay? Bryant is still the beast that you should fear, even though his teeth appear to be blunt when it comes to you.”
“I turned my wrath into goddamn poison and forgot how to protect these I loved from being touched by it.”
For once again, I loved Isa!!!! And i believe that i loved her more than the first book!!!
She was more mature, even though hotheaded and stubborn. Some things never really change after all, no???
But i believe that her love for Bryant changed her and even though she was feeling betrayed by him, she was determined to get to the bottom of this fucked up situation, no matter what…
I loved how feisty and determined she was, and I loved that she couldn’t stay untouched by Bryant’s reach!!!
“I’ll drink his poison and die for all my sins. I’m that stupid.”
“Bryant assumes that he has been my biggest warfare, but he’s wrong. My soul is the most complicated war I’ve ever had to battle against.”
Well, that man…. Hell!!! That man is gorgeous in every aspect.
He is so calculated, so focused, so strongwilled!!!! His qualities are admirable in every way!!!!
Isa tried many times to outrun him very cleverly, but he was always some steps ahead of her…
Yep, this man was dangerous and he had so many hidden secrets, but he always had one end goal!!! Her….
And i loved how protective he was of her, even though he was masking it as indifference!!!!
“Loving you is a constant battle, but it’s a war I’m willing to die for.”
“She’s someone I can trust.
I can go to war beside.
But now, I’m not going to war beside her, I’m going to war against her.”
Isa and Bryant were born for each other and that’s the honest truth!!!!
They were fighting a lot, they had trust issues, but there was an undeniably connection between them…
Their love was too strong and each encounter between them steamier and hotter than the previous, even if they were just fighting…
I’m so happy that I’ve read their story, even though it was so fucked up!!!
I was built from ice, and he was made from the waters of the Atlantic, but essentially, that same ocean that created Bryant was the very same that I built my ice walls with.”
***I received an ARC for the exchange of an honest review***
Crowned by Fate was hypnotising addictive, complex and just filled with layers. Amo Jones grabs your attention and she won’t let go.
After the rollercoaster that was Crowned by Hate, I was ready to dive straight into another namely Crowned by Fate. And honey, I was not ready. I’m pretty sure no one could prepare themselves for an epic storyline with so many twists and turns.
Amo Jones just keeps on surprising me. This is book destroyed me over and over again. I felt like I got whiplash from the amount of secrets and plans there were. But never did they feel far fetched. The storyline was layered and in-depth. Twisted, but brilliant. I couldn’t get enough. Sure, I might have bitten off all my nails, but I devoured that book.
The relationship between Bryant and Isa just keeps on getting more and more complex and heated. Yes! It was intense and painful, but extremely beautiful at the same time. Love is so crystal clear between the two, but it’s wrapped in secrets. And I’m insanely in love Bryant. He was such a bad boy (not a boy, definitely a man), but one who’s loyal and would do everything for the people he loves. He stole my heart.
The writing was amazing as well. It made me feel all the emotions. I wanted more and only great writing can keep you so in touch with the storyline and the characters. Amo Jones did a wonderful job.
Crowned by Fate left me speechless. A strong book with an even stronger ending and you don’t want to miss this one. Believe me.
“I was built from ice, and he was made from the waters of the Atlantic, but essentially, that same ocean that created Bryant was the very same that I built my ice walls with.”
After the bomb we were left with at the end of book one, I was really curious how Amo Jones would turn things around. What’s for sure, is that I couldn’t by any means fathom what actually happened! Like with many of Amo Jones’s books, I found myself thinking how the hell did she write this?! She manages every damn time to amaze me with her unbelievably crazy stories!!
I won’t actually tell what happened at the end of book 1, just in case you haven’t read it yet. Isa is back and she’s out for blood, both her father’s and Bryant’s. She knew not to expect anything better from her father, but Bryant’s betrayal cut her. With her being back, havoc is about to happen! Bryant is still his dominant, infuriatingly arrogant self, although we get more glimpses of the Bryant he’s with Isa. I didn’t really know what to think of his actions, so I waited for the plot to unfold, and I wasn’t disappointed; he’s always 10 steps ahead of everyone!
“We fight dirty but it only serves as foreplay. We turn our dirt into the storm and kill everyone in our path.”
When all the secrets are out, you’ll be nothing but mind blown. There are so many hidden agendas and players I didn’t even think about! Amo Jones gives us once again a compelling story, with many twists and turns, while topping it up with Isa and Bryant’s explosive chemistry. These two are definitely made for each other and I’m really happy with how their story concluded. I’m sad to see the duet coming to an end; I’m sure that I’ll be coming back for another fix soon enough!!!
The twist and turns kept coming I just stood still and kept getting f*cked over again and again. Love Bryant and Isa
If you think Crowned by Hate was twisted, this book will brow your mind. The secrets come from everywere there is no place for trust. The Royal marriage had to fight for their happy ending and destroy the hidden enemy.
Isa and Bryant are like fire meets gasoline in and out the bed, their love is wild but where is the trust? Everybody is keeping a secret.
