Paedyn and Kai battle with duty and desire in this highly anticipated second installment in the sizzling and epic romantic fantasy trilogy that’s packed with spicy tension and edge-of-your-seat betrayal.
The kingdom of Ilya is in turmoil…
After surviving the Purging Trials, Ordinary-born Paedyn Gray has killed the King and kickstarted a Resistance throughout the land. Now she’s running from the one person she had wanted to run to.
Kai Azer is now Ilya’s Enforcer, loyal to his brother Kitt, the new King. He has vowed to find Paedyn and bring her to justice.
Across the deadly Scorches, and deep into the hostile city of Dor, Kai pursues the one person he wishes he didn’t have to. But in a city without Elites, the balance between the hunter and hunted shifts—and the battle between duty and desire is deadly.

I liked the first book so much more.
I felt this one was soooo repetitive and predictable
The first two thirds of this: walk, fight, fight feelings. Repeat.
The last bit is all you really need and I 100% saw the ending coming. It's kind of a bummer because I really enjoyed the first one.
The story was so good, a lot more action packed in my opinion and did not follow a pattern like Powerless did. The twists were expected but still made complete sense with the story line. I finish with some question unanswered, can't wait for the next one.
It was also way more beautifuly written, I was reaching for my pen so much more frequently. I loved it!
lauren roberts has single-handedly become one of my favorite authors via this series. not only does the dialogue portray the yearning and unintended devotion of the characters to each other, but her writing in general is so beautiful. the ending has left me in shambles and i am anxiously awaiting her next masterpiece
