The Wrath by Gena ShowalterMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
📘Book Info
New York Times bestselling author Gena Showalter returns with a new book in the tantalizing Rise of the Warlords series, featuring a brutal Hell king and the irresistible beauty who upends his world.
For centuries, Rathbone the Only, King of Agonies, has existed for one purpose: recovering the enchanted bones of his slain wife to bring her back to life. He’s never been closer to success. But a new enemy has risen. A band of deadly war gods who have thirty days to destroy her or suffer the consequences. With time running out, Rathbone hires a maddening harpy-oracle, unaware she has an agenda of her own.
Neeka the Unwanted is a fierce warrior on a mission: stop Rathbone and the gods. She’s seen the future if either is victorious, and it’s horrifying. She’ll do whatever proves necessary to forge a new path, even seduce the ruthless royal from his purpose. What she can’t predict? How the intense male will shatter her hard-won defenses along the way.
As Rathbone battles unexpected betrayals, cunning foes and the wild temptress he craves with every fiber of his being, he knows he must choose: hold on to a cold dream or embrace a new flame.
💭Our Thoughts
Book four is here and prepare yourself for one heck of an AB workout
Neeka had me rolling
She is a harpy with some issues?
She likes veggies, not meat
She can't remember yesterday but she is pretty keen that it went well
She is seen as less than in the harpy community due to her deafness, despite the fact she is an oracle
And now she is finding herself very attracted to the enemy, Rathborne or is it Rathbone, who is trying to resurrect his love -
The love that is going to enslave and destroy
Don't worry though, she's got a plan
If only she can remember
I devoured this release
Such a great couple.
The romance was a slow burn but the tension between these two bled off the pages
The banter. The empty threats and misdirection. The denial of their obvious chemistry. The moment they both capitulate. It was done in a way that felt natural. One of my favorite couples.
Action-packed from the beginning to the end. With all kinds of fub ar scenes. Some had me laughing others I was a bit worried.
Plenty of twists and maybe betrayals? Let you decide.
But truly, what do you expect when you mix a slightly off God on a mission to resurrect his lost love and a very eccentric Harpy who resets?
A paranormal series that you do not want to pass up. Great world-building. Solid storylines that keep the reader engaged and coming back for more. A cast of characters that will enamor any reader.
One of my few one-click preorder authors
