It’s coiled so tight.Wrapped around my very soul, the tendrils of hate burning incessantly as they burrow deeper.The darkness has claimed me for its own… and I refuse to disappoint it.The blood of my father has coated my hands along with a few others, but I won’t stop now.This is only the beginning and I have a list of wrongs that I need to make right.I will do anything to protect the ones I love… do anything to protect the ones I love…
even if it means more blood on my hands.

This book was a fucking blast. I couldn’t wish for better. We could see a darker side of Ember, a murderous one, and she’s not afraid to use for her own benefit, and the ones she calls family. She’s so young, only seventeen, but she thinks and acts so much older. The things she lived and had to do made her grow faster than she should, but it also made her who she is. Strong, mature and protective of her own, doing everything for their safety, no matter the risks. She’s a fucking weapon. Vin is definitely her soul mate, the way those two work is fucking explosive. His unconditional love and dedication for Ember is beautiful. The dynamic of their relationships its fucking amazing, they’re playful and, at the same time, their darkness knows each other. It’s a match made in hell, but it works so well. The shit that happened in this book broke my heart, I can’t believe this author killed one of my favorite characters, I’m gutted. I can’t wait to read the next book and see more of Ember’s vigilant ways
After we got teased with a darker storyline towards the end of the first book, I was so ready for more. And CA Rene definitely delivered with this book!
I loved Ember’s development in this one. She’s such a strong heroine. Her darkness and thirst for blood are at all time high and she’s ready to embrace it and get revenge.
Her relationship with Vin only gets stronger and I loved how he is her rock through everything. They are perfect soulmates!
There are also new side characters introduced and I loved how close Ember and Emmett became. And I can’t wait for Travis’ story!
The storyline was amazingly well written. I was completely hooked and engaged in the story from the first page. I’m so glad I found this author! Can’t wait to read more!
Into Darkness is book 2 in the Whitsborough Chronicles.
We have darkness people! I loved the sweeter side to book 1, getting to know the characters and the Whitsborough world, however Into Darkness took this series up a notch or ten !! Ember transforms from a strong fighting girl (reminder these kids are only 17ish) to a girl who needs something just a little bit…. more, but now she’s also got revenge on the brain.
Big twists and painful truths uncovered in this one.
So excited to find out what happens next!!!
This is book 2 in the whitborough chronicles. This book leaves off after the cliffhanger in book 1. Ember doesn’t really know what to think after she wakes up in a place that is not hers. She must fight to be free of the evil that took her. She has to fight and baby does she fight real good.
She has this darkness deep inside of her that she can’t let go of. Can her family bring her out of it or is she taking them down with her. There are secrets and lies that must come out and You’re NOT ready for this!
Vin will always be her yin and yang, ride or die.
While book 1 hints at the darkness, this book dives deep into it.
This series speaks to my soul
This is the second book in the Whitsborough Chronicles, and the continuation of Ember’s story. This book pics up from book one, and we watch as Ember becomes more, of a bad ass, and embraces her darkness completely. This was a dark read, Ember, and Vin have fiery chemistry, and I was engaged the whole book. This book is intense, twisted, action-packed, gritty, dark, and dirty.
I jumped straight into this book after the first one as I was so engrossed. And wow, the storyline changed quite a lot in a good way. The story got a lot darker and I loved it. I really liked how although Ember got darker, Vin never changed his attitude towards her.
I’m so glad I found this author, as I love her writing style and look forward to reading more.
Highly recommend!
(FIVE DARK A** MOONS)
Into darkness? More like fade to flipping black. I was warned, I knew it was coming, sort of. I expected dark, I mean it’s in the title. I just…who knew the pages of one book could contain so much heartache? Let me get a moment of silence.
Ember has been through it. And back again. And this time Vin was there with her, her whole crew has seen some stuff. Even Sharla. This book was written gorgeously but, damn. Can I get a team lift? This is HEAVY.
Dark scale broke.
I’m not ready for book 3 am I? Of course not. But I’m on my way anyhow! Here I go, tra la la Finding the Light!!
What a great book. Wow!!! Ember is strong and vengeful. She learns a lot of things and also looses the most important people. Life as ember knows it is full of skilled moves and planning. Vin is great support system for her. Her brothers step up in her life and more secrets are revealed. You need to read this series definitely won’t regret.
I absolutely love love loved book 1 and couldn’t wait for this book to come out!!! AND I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED! this one blew my mind, broke my heart, and then blew my mind some more. Once I started I couldn’t put it down till the last page.
Ember is dealing with all the dark feelings she is having after everything that happened at the end of book 1. She is trying to figure out how to come out of the darkness. Thank goodness she has her brothers, Vin and her friends.
I loved Embers relationship with Vin they are soulmates!! They are my favorite book couple!
And Emmett ugh! He is just so perfect!! I loved reading about him and Embers relationship and watching them become closer through this book!!!
No spoilers from me!!! But if you read book 1 and loved it read this book!!
I can’t wait for Finding the Light!!!
Once again @c.a.rene has knocked it out the park.. she is just such a damn good writer.. this book was sooo good ugh I loved it.. i have no words again for how good this book is.. ember is my spirit animal… she is such a badass.. don’t fuck with her or the people she loves or you will pay the price.. Im way to hyped about this series… I am on a mission to get everyone to read it.. so if you haven’t nows the time… I highly recommend this book
Wow I thought I loved book 1, book 2 blew my mind and left me spinning!
I loved reading about our favourite characters Ember, Vin, Trav and Andri and seeing their characters grow in this book as well as meeting some new characters like Carm and Em!!
I loved this book and all new twist and turns, CA had me engaged, intrigued and wanting one more chapter until there was no more chapters!!
Book 2 is defiantly more darker but oh so deliciously addictive to read!!
Can’t wait to delve into book 3!!
When I fight I let myself become numb, no emotions to cloud my judgment but I can usually bring myself out of it after a few hours. This time I think I stayed in too long, I let the inky black evil part of my soul devour me so I could do what I needed to do for vengeance. Revenge is sweet, I don’t care what people say it really is sweet. -Ember
This just about sums it up. Down the rabbit hole we go, getting darker and darker. I fucking love it and this review it’s probably shit because I am currently overwhelmed and dying to dive into book 3, so you’be been warned.
The blood lust in Into Darkness is fucking real. We pick up exactly where we left off in Through the Pain, book 1 of the Whitsborough Chronicles. After Ember murders her father, we start to see flashbacks and nightmares of what she has done, but she doesn’t regret it. She welcomes this feeling with open arms, finally embracing her darkness. But the darkness can only be sated when she kills now.
This darkness I’ve succumbed to is cold and it feels like I’m finally where I belong.
Family means the most to Ember after losing her mother, the only family she has ever known. We learn that she not only has a twin brother, but an older half brother as well. The family and dynamic she has increases and changes quite a bit in this book.
“Ember, I told you before, this is unconditional. I don’t have a choice anymore.” I shake my head, “I will love you forever, no matter what you do.” -Vin
Ember is out for blood after events just keep spiraling out of control. Nobody fucks with what is hers, and she’s about to make that a known lesson after what is taken from her once more happens.
“Tell me what you’re feeling.” He whispers from the other side.
“Like I want to kill, to feel someone’s blood coat my hands as I break open flesh.” I answer with a voice sounding heavy with lust. I hear his intake of breath and it makes me continue, “I want to feel bone crushing under my fists and watch as life slowly leaves someone’s eyes until they look scared, lost then vacant.”
“Fuck.” He sighs from the other side. “That’s dark, Em.”
