Barrington University is home of the Lords, a secret society that requires their blood in payment. They are above all—the most powerful men in the world. They devote their lives to violence in exchange for power. And during their senior year, they are offered a chosen one. 

People think growing up with money is freeing, but I promise you, it’s not. My entire life has been planned out for me. I never got the chance to do what I wanted until Ryat Alexander Archer came along and gave me an option for a better life. He offered me what no one else ever had—freedom. 

I chose to be his. He made me believe that anyway, but it was just another lie. A way that the Lords manipulate you into doing what they want. 

After being sucked into the dark, twisted world of the Lords, I embraced my new role and allowed Ryat to parade me around like the trophy I was to him. But like all things, what started out as a game soon became a fight for survival. And the only way out was death.

Oh my god! 

The Ritual was everything I was hoping for and more! 

When Lords reach their senior year of college at Barrington University, they are allowed to choose a chosen one. One who will be theirs to do with as they please. And Ryat has his eyes set on Blakely. 

Ryat is one of the most promising Lords. Devoted to them years before initiation. The Lords mean having great power.  And Blakely found herself in the middle of the dark and twisted secret world of the Lords. Lies, deceit, secrets and danger aren't the only things packed in this novel- but the characters are also explosive with each other. Blakely may be innocent at the start, but that doesn't stop her from diving head first into Ryat and his world. 

I loved loved loved Ryat and Blakely's story. There was soooo much of it too. This is a thick one, filled with everything you love if you love your books dark. Hot sex, twists, turns, secrets, lies, and violence. Ryat was everything you love about anit-heros. I seriously couldn't get enough of these characters or this story. It kept me on the edge of my seat and had me wanting more. I couldn't put it down and loved every crazy second of this wild story. 5 ⭐ out of 5⭐.
