SHE LIVES BY HER INTUITION. HE FEEDS ON HER PLEASURE. From Jennifer L. Armentrout, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of From Blood and Ash, comes a searing fantasy romance for adults, Fall of Ruin and Wrath. Long ago, the world was destroyed by gods. Only nine cities were spared. Separated by vast wilderness teeming with monsters and unimaginable dangers, each city is now ruled by a guardian—royalty who feed on mortal pleasure. Born with an intuition that never fails, Calista knows her talents are of great value to the power-hungry of the world, so she lives hidden as a courtesan of the Baron of Archwood. In exchange for his protection, she grants him information. When her intuition leads her to save a traveling prince in dire trouble, the voice inside her blazes with warning—and promise. Today he’ll bring her joy. One day he'll be her doom. When the Baron takes an interest in the traveling prince and the prince takes an interest in Calista, she becomes the prince’s temporary companion. But the city simmers with rebellion, and with knights and monsters at her city gates and a hungry prince in her bed, intuition may not be enough to keep her safe. Calista must choose: follow her intuition to safety or follow her heart to her downfall. Breathtaking suspense and scorching romance meet in this immersive new fantasy from a mega-bestselling force, Jennifer L. Armentrout.

I'd give this book a solid 3.5 stars. The heat was def there but the story was a bit slow. The ending was interesting and I will read the next book. But I hate the way women were used in this book. Gave me a bit of a yuck feeling. She had no consent to anything even though the men said she did. Interested to see book 2.
Really disappointed in this one. The first 10% and the last 10% were the best parts. The middle was just a smut fest. I didn't feel the connection at all. What I want most out of my romance is the the romance. And I just didn't feel it. Wouldn't hurt to also have more world building to help with the fantasy part. I don't think I will continue with this series. I feel like I'll get the same, a few interesting things buried in smut.
