God of Wrath A Dark Enemies to Lovers Romance (Legacy of Gods #3)

Rina Kent2022
I’m trapped by the devil. What started as an innocent mistake turned into actual hell. In my defense, I didn’t mean to get involved with a mafia prince. But he barged through my defenses anyway. He stalked me from the shadows and stole me from the life I know. Jeremy Volkov might appear charming, but a true predator lurks inside. He’s out to possess, own, and keep me. But I have no plans to stick around in his blood-soaked world. Or so I think. This book is a dark unconventional romance and contains themes that aren't to everyone's liking.

At first I was skeptical about this book, but after reading this book, my love grew for Jeremy and Cecily's relationship, I like the characters developed by Jeremy and the way he treated Cecily at the end of the story, so yeah, this book is fun to read and I love it

i LOVED THIS, i was addicted, obsessed EVERYTHING during this book, it was so good for me that i don't even have words and the nickname agh perfect - "Why me?" "Because you had the audacity to capture my attention." "Can I un-capture it?" "That's not even a word. And the answer is no. You can't make me do anything, Cecily." - "You want to kiss a monster?" "I never said I was normal." "You're an annoying fucking existence." "Still, you're here." "That I am." - "Cecily: What does that mean? Lisichka? Jeremy: Little fox. You looked like one that day at the initiation. You still feel like one with all the cunning." - "Fuck if I care. That's what I should say, and mean it, but I don't. This is the part that didn't go according to plan. The part where I could've and should've been able to cut ties with her the moment we were done on that deck. The part where I should've erased her from my life as if she were never there in the first place. But it took my beast one taste to develop an obsession with her. Or maybe the obsession has been there for some time now and it only just grew." - "Why are you doing this to me?" "Because your darkness calls to mine. I want to unleash that repressed part of you and toy with it, with you, like when I smeared your innocence all over my cock. I want to own you, Cecily, every part of you, what you show and what you hide beneath self-imposed shackles. I won't stop until you're fully, thoroughly, and undeniably mine." - ""Ask. Me." "What do you want?" "You," - ""My fucking property." "I'm not your property, Jeremy. I'm a person." "My person," - "He opened my heart, my world, and made me feel pretty again. I liked wearing some skirts, shorts, and revealing stuff when we were alone, because he looked at me like I was the most beautiful thing he'd ever seen. I used to be scared of relationships, but I wanted one with him." - "I was a grouchy, unapproachable fucker for the past month, and even I could tell the reason was thoroughly due to her absence from my life. Though I do stalk her, as she likes to call it, that's not enough. Nothing is enough when it comes to Cecily fucking Knight." - "Leave me alone, Jeremy." "No." It's one word, a single word, but it's enough to relay my decision concerning her. There's no way I'll ever let Cecily go. No matter what she does, no matter what my demons say. No matter how the fuck it goes from then on. I'll simply abduct her, keep her, and make her a part of me so that she's unable to leave." - "For all the time she was out of reach because I was a rigid dick who only ever sees the world in black and white. Cecily is neither. She's the gray. She's the colors. She's every rainbow I never thought to stop and watch." - "Did you see me back then?" "I have always seen you." - "What if. what if. we'd never met?" "We would've sooner or later." "How do you know?" "You were always meant to be mine, Cecily." Nothing else could explain this raging need to own her, keep her, and never let her leave me, even if I have to sacrifice a limb for it. Even if she hates me because of it."" - "She's the only person whose company I feel free in. There's no sense of duty nor a weight on my shoulders. There's just me and her. Cecily Knight is the calm in a loud, chaotic world." - "Thank you." "For what?" "For getting me out of my comfort zone. I wouldn't have done it if you hadn't pushed me at first." "I'd do it again in a heartbeat." - "I think we were supposed to meet when we were both jaded so we could help one another." "No one will hurt you anymore, Cecily. You have my word." - "I won't hurt you, Cecily." "You're the fire to my icy heart, and while I loathed that at the beginning, I soon came to the realization that I can't survive without that fire. My feelings for you are nowhere near conventional. They're neither proportional nor measurable, and that heart you melted and the emotions you provoked belong to you. I'd rather be smashed and broken to pieces with you than be whole without you. I'd rather remain a beast for you than become a man who has to survive without you." - "Tell me you love me." "I love you, Jeremy,". "Am I the only one you love?" "Only you." "Do you love me?" "I'm fucking crazy about you, Lisichka. I love you more than words can express." - "Thank you for helping me in my self-recovery journey." "You helped with mine, too." "I never liked to keep anyone close because I loathed and dreaded the idea of being left behind. But I'd fall for you over and over again if I had the chance for a redo." "Oh, Jeremy." "Im lucky to have you." "That's where you're wrong. I'm the one who's lucky to have you, Lisichka."

I REALLY enjoyed this book. It is seriously dark and twisted though so you do need to tread carefully and read trigger warnings before you decide to read it. Dark and twisted, dark and twisted man.

I liked the book way more than I think I would. Jeremy came across as kind of a loser in the previous book tbh I surprised myself when I didn't want him to die in the fire because up to that point I couldn't have cared less for him.

I ended up liking him in his own book. He was much more interesting than Creighton who really was just a sleepy head with mean tendencies. It was so boring.

Speaking of boring, I liked God of Wrath but the last 30% were totally unnecessary. I felt like the conflict happened at the right time but when I saw that I was only 70% in I was shocked. It felt like it was going on for ages after that. The second conflict was so unnecessary as well. I couldn't take it anymore.

The ending was so sweet as well. Too sweet for my liking. The blabbering about him loving her to death had me rolling my eyes. Just shut up already and end the book. Seriously.

The family parts are always so unbearably adorable I want to throw up. A dark romance shouldn't have the healthiest families. It's disturbing. I do like the families don't get me wrong but it's weird. And the fathers' povs are kind of useless as well. I did like Xanders tho. He was so funny with his hate for Jeremy! Adrian's pov was boring again. Name a healthier father-son-relationship aside from the ones in this series.

The only cute thing that I liked was when Jeremy was obssesed with the sparkling hearts emoji lmao He was so in love!

I received a copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own. What a heart pounding and steamy story. Just keeps getting better and better. I was extremely excited to read/listen to this book because I’ve been so interested in Cecily since we were first introduced to her in this series. She’s one of my favorite characters ever. And Jeremy, holy hotness. This man was so delicious. I mean how can anyone not love his broody, twisted and dreamy self. I’m really loving this author’s writing style, it’s so enthralling. I can vividly see all of the scenes play out in my mind. This book was such a quick read, and I found it incredibly hard to stop reading when I had to get back to life. I desperately hung onto every single word. My only gripe is how similar all of the books in this series are. It somewhat feels like the same story told over and over again. Other than that, I really did enjoy this book. Jeremy and Cecily are one for the books and two of my favorite characters in this series! The audio of this book was great. Each of these narrators always do an amazing job. If you’re looking for something dark, dangerous, There are LOTS of triggers in this book, make sure you look at those before you read this book/series. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

God of Wrath is the third installment in the "Legacy of gods" series and I really was impressed by this one but I have to say this is one of the DARKEST romance books that I have ever read in my life. This hero is crazy, a stalker and took a lot for this author to get me to fall in love with him. I will say though, that if you have enjoyed the previous two books in the series, then this book will most definitely work for you. If not, checks the trigger and content warnings (I believe they are listed on the author's website, if not, reach out and I can give them to you). God of Wrath is packed with so many elements. Its an enemies to lovers, some big secrets, primal and knife play and lots of crazyness attached to it. I really liked seeing how everything came together and I just swept all the way through it. I read this 500 page book so quickly! I adored the heroine though, despite her keeping a secret from the hero almost all the way through. Normally it would bother me, but Rina Kent is like my dark romance crack so apparently she can do no wrong. I really felt like the romance itself was so well portrayed and so much depth to it. But it does have LOTS of sex and it gets pretty intense. I think the only thing that would have made it better was seeing the heroine meet the hero's dad. I do love that we get to meet the parents of the kids in these books, makes me want to get through her backlist and soon haha Overall I found God of Wrath to be a delicious installment that was a WIN and so worth the wait on! I can't wait to see what she delivers next.

"Why are you doing this to me?" I blurt, my voice hoarse and my nose cdogged from all the crying. TBecause your darkness calls to mine. I want to unleash that repressed part of you and toy with it, with you, like whenI smeared your innocence all over my cock. I want to own you, Cecily, every part of you, what you show and what you hide beneath self-imposed shackles.I won't stop until you're fully, thoroughly, and undeniably mine.

At first, she used her dad’s animosity toward me, but after the first few weeks, Xander got me drunk so I’d spill my secrets.

I told him I wouldn’t leave his daughter even if I died, and he smacked me upside the head.

Lmao what a dad😂

“I told you. Russian roulette.” He pushes a bullet into one of the gruesome holes of the rotating cylinder and slams it shut, then rolls it with a blurry speed. “But let’s make it truth time. We’ll ask two questions each and when the other answers, he has to shoot. It might be the last thing we say, so lying is prohibited. There are five empty shots and we’ll play four rounds. You go first.”

He's gone of the deep end💀 Is he INSANE

A slight twitch of his lips is all the answer he offers as he revs the bike forward.

Why did I think riding a bike meant riding a bike💀 That explains why he could go so fast the other day lmao
