Crowned by Fate Review



This had an incredible ending... no cliff hangers just a good old fashioned "love is triumphant" ending. I like that Amo added in mental health issues and concerns because as someone that has struggled with it, I appreciated that aspect of this book, even though this book is fiction, mental health issues are very real. It is because of that I will say that both these books in this duet should come with a slight trigger warning for those who have suffered. As Amo stated in her acknowledgments

            "Finally, I acknowldge all this who deal with their struggles internally. The ones                                       who don't  involve people in our dark times because we're too afraid that our                                         darkness will stain their hands. Your struggles can be a lonely place, and the                                           load can be heavy, but you're not alone. You're a warrior"-Amo

Every time i have read that, it makes me tear up because again, this is just a work of fiction, but Amo had a way of bring out some dark things inside of me, as I am sure many felt it while reading this duet...So, it was nice to see her acknowledge it and everyone who has been through it.

Now... back to the story... it was so perfect!!! The web that is woven between Isa, Bryant and the rest of the characters keeps you guessing. It is twisted in all the right ways. 

Description

He asked me to love him, so I engraved his name onto my heart.
He craved my loyalty, so I let him feast on my soul.
I wanted a husband, but he gave me a monster.
So, I made it my pet.
The lines between what was real and what wasn’t were blurred.
Our story was a lie.
Until now.

Absolution Review

Image
  So, I like twisted tales and dark romance but this one definitely took it to a whole new level. This book comes with warnings, allowing the reader to understand what they are getting themselves into. This is not a BDSM "love" story.  No spoilers... I would like to say that it is in fact a story of two people who some might say are messed up but they are perfect together and for each other. So in a way it is a love story, but it has some dark scenes. As the authors put it, "[..] you will be thrown into the mind of a psychopath". This story comes from the perspective of both Evie and Ezra. Evie has had a rough start to say the least, being brought up in a religion that makes you think the female form is a sin.  Ezra was brought up to believe that most women are whores and he runs a club. Both of these characters are brutally meant for each other. Absolution Description Evie All sins are equal in the eyes of God, but I'm not God. One sinner made me hi

Manik Review

Image
What can I say... I am truly obsessed with Amo Jones and all that she creates. The woman has me hooked not just on her words but the characters she creates and she knocked it out of the park with this stand alone.  As always... no spoilers here You want love, self discovery, mystery, mafia... Oh yea and really good sex? This checks all of those boxes.  This story starts off by giving the reader a tad of a preview of what is to come via a prologue, which not going to lie, I had totally forgot about it, until the book was almost finished.... Like, how am I not paying attention to a story that I am adoring?!.... The story follows Beat, who has a bit of a past (but don't we all?) Then there is Manik... a rapper/Mafioso for the Russians.. A kidnapping... A love story     Description I’m Beatrice Kennedy, but everyone calls me Beat. I live a low-key life, fresh out of college and drifting from town to town until I find my home. I love music, and how it stirs even the deepest and untouche
