Review: God of Wrath - Rina Kent

Review: God of Wrath - Book #3 Legacy of Gods - Rina Kent - November 2022 There's a peculiar disappointment that comes with watching a series you once loved start to unravel. I fell hard for Rina Kent's Legacy of Gods series. Book #1 with Glyn and Killian? Absolutely devoured it. The chemistry, the tension, the perfect blend of darkness and devotion—it was everything I wanted in a dark romance. Book #2 maintained that momentum with solid romantic suspense that kept me turning pages. But Book #3, God of Wrath, left me feeling... uncertain about where this series is headed. The premise started strong. Cecily participating in the Hunt was gripping, and the revelation of her own dark fantasies specifically her rape fantasy kink added layers to her character. When she signs up for an elite sex club expecting to finally be matched with Landon (Glyn's older brother and her longtime crush), the twist that pairs her with Jeremy Volkov instead had real potential. Jeremy, Annika...

Review: God of Pain - Book #2 Legacy of Gods - Rina Kent - September 2022 After absolutely devouring God of Malice and falling head over heels for Rina Kent's Legacy of Gods series, I practically launched myself at Book #2.

Annika lives on the UK side but her roots are firmly planted in American Mafia soil, while Creighton—adopted into the British King dynasty—is American-born. It's this beautiful tangle of identities and loyalties that made my brain very happy. Annika is everything: purple-obsessed, sunshine personified, radiating happiness whilst desperately trying to distance herself from her brother's dangerous world. When her father a...

Review: God of Malice - Book #1 Legacy of Gods Series - Rina Kent - July 2022 You know that feeling when a book series sits on your shelf for ages—taunting you with its hype, but you’re just not in the right headspace to dive in? That was me with God of Malice by Rina Kent. I’d heard whispers about the Legacy of Gods series, knew deep down I’d probably love it, but I hesitated. Maybe I was scared it wouldn’t live up to the buzz. Spoiler alert: it absolutely did. And then some. This book swept me right back to the early days of New Adult Bullymance—think Paper Prince by Erin Watt, C. Hallman’s gritty romances, and that delicious tension between danger and desire. Rina Kent nails that edgy vibe, and God of Malice reminded me why I fell for this genre in the first place. We meet Glyndon (yes, I kept wanting to call her Gwyndon too), standing on a cliff where her best friend supposedly took his own life. That moment hit hard. It’s raw, unsettling, and sets the tone for a story steeped...
