He’s cruel and vicious… to everyone other than me.
I know I should run, but I can’t deny the longing for him stirring deep within me.
Just when I allow myself to trust him, he reveals his true nature. Enveloping me in his deadly embrace, he seeks to claim my soul.
Despite my aching desire for him, I’ve made a vow to myself. Only I will be the one to determine my fate.
Scroll up and one click now to devour this swoonworthy, dark and twisty romance today!
*** This is a New Adult Dark Paranormal Romance with some dark themes, schmexy, sinful gods and wolves and is best suited for ages 17+. Be warned this is a slow burn enemies-to-lovers romance, and the steaminess factor does increase through the course of the series! ♥
*** Of Gods and Wolves is set within the world of Azar, along with (in reading order) Hitched, Darkblood Academy, Royally Hitched, Darkblood Prison, Wolfish, and Vampish but it's not necessary to read the other series first to enjoy this one.
Review: Why...?
Why do I continue to torture myself?
I had been looking forward to getting my hands on this book and reading it. Now I wish I never bothered with it. The female character is whiny, indecisive, and a complete brat. She can't decide whether or not she loves Thane or she wants him to be hurt by her family. She even goes as far as to let them beat him.
And yet she hated to see anyone killed or maimed?
As for the goddess Luna, she is sus. We don't know why she wants the female lead away from Thanatos. She never bothers to give any reason why she has to be away from him and never learns anything about their previous lives only tiny little pieces here and there.
Mostly, we see her hating him. No reason why. No past explanation. Only because of Luna.
Will I bother with the next book? Maybe. It will heavily depend on whether or not I want to bother with this story any further.
