From Goodreads:
King Midas made me the woman I am today. Notorious. Unattainable. His.
The thing about being confined is that you believe it’s to keep the bad out... Until you realize it’s about keeping you in.
I’m now in a strange kingdom surrounded by liars, with no allies of my own, but I won’t sit idly by and let myself wither. No, there’s something that’s bloomed from the pit of my repression. Something dark. Something angry.
But the last thing I expected was for my anger to call out to him. King Ravinger.
He’s sinister and powerful and entirely too seductive. I’ve learned my lesson with trusting manipulative kings, so why does my chest constrict every time he’s near? I need to tread carefully, or I’m at risk of losing much more than just my freedom.
Regret and revenge war inside of me, and I need to figure out a plan fast before I get tangled up in the schemes of kings and queens.
Because I won’t be caught in a cage again. No, this time, It’ll be me setting the trap... I just hope my heart comes out of this unscathed.
Rating: 3 of 5 stars
The third installment to The Plated Prisoner series, and it was everything I could have hoped for and more!
Raven Kennedy upped the stakes, the romance and the action. Gleam was a lengthy book, and I loved every bit of it!
Top three things I LOVED about Gleam? Auren. She's ready to take on the world. She will prove just how strong, resilient and powerful she is. I love witnessing her growth. She learns a lot about herself in this book. She's far from the naive, gullible, lovestruck girl we met in Gild. She's ready to break herself from her bonds, both literal and metaphorical, and she's choosing herself this time. (I LOVE that!)
Second best thing, to the surprise of absolutely no one, is Rip. Someone find me a love interest who is as terrifying and powerful as he is gentle, caring and loyal. I LOVE him.
I cannot mention Rip and not talk about the Wrath. I honestly didn't get enough of them but Osrik, Lu and Judd are three of my favorite people!
Lastly... let's just say Midas got what was coming to him and leave it at that. This horrible, manipulative ass- I would have punched him in the face myself if I could.
The fourth book will be out in a year. Excuse me while I go cry.
I received an ARC to read and review.
