4.5 Stars of Perfect Revenge!!!
Oh what a way to end a book but not the series!!!
But first, I can’t explain how much I loved how this has come together. The charter development of Ash has truly been brought full circle. In the beginning, she was Ashleigh. And her name has even developed with her. Ash has quickly become her new persona.
The perfect amount of spice, action, development, mystery betrayal and revenge!
And boy ,this revenge has been coming. Cavil finds new way to piss you off and wish him the worst death possible.
Ash becomes closer to all her men and I can’t wait to see where this can go.
The Slow burn in this series is YUM!!!
This epic series introduced us to the amazing voice that is CoraLee June just over three years ago- a series coincidentally foretelling since it deals with a pandemic. Her writing style has evolved over time, but this series introduced us to the hallmarks that make CLJ such a unique and compelling voice in the romance world.
Cora is a visionary- she’s unafraid of the unconventional story, she finds beauty in complex dynamics. It’s why her stories are spellbinding. Cora is a rule breaker- she cleverly and unabashedly colors outside of the lines- defies tropes, breaks romance “rules,” and she takes risks. It’s why she’s one of the most versatile writers out there- she’s always challenging herself and her readers. Cora is a character writer- she understands and develops her characters with such passion and artistry. It’s why her characters have such nuance and dimension, why they are unforgettable, and why they impact us deeply emotionally. And, Cora has a point of view- her stories are always entertaining, but they have profound depth and meaning that undergird everything. It is why her stories move us, why they stick with us.
This series is nothing like what you think it will be- this is not the Walking Dead. This is dystopian entertainment that is also complex and emotionally resonant. This is a sexy reverse harem with a serious slow burn. This is a story about a society beyond the norm, a new normal, but still bound by rules- yet, Cora writes a story that breaks all the rules. A story that exists in demise of a world we know, in which story builds an entirely new one.
If you love Cora’s later work or are new to her, give this series a shot. There is not anything like it out in the world of romance- a true testament to CLJ’s creativity.
June is brilliant and this book showcases that so well! These characters continue to change and grow and we’re sucked into the dynamically awesome world June’s created for us. I’m excited for more and I cannot wait for the next book. I very highly recommend this series and unlike many other series this one gets better and better instead of showing any decline.
Holy wow, this is by far the most intense book of the series! It seriously sent me in an emotional rollercoaster. There were times where I’m pretty sure I was holding my breath as a scene played out. Ash goes through a lot of changes in this book. We see her go from this grieving and broken individual to a woman who finds her way back to her purpose: bringing down the emperor.
This book is full of action and some steamy as hell scenes. The characters really get under your skin and leave you rooting for them!
