Review: Fate of a Faux

 

Title: Fate of a Faux

Series: Lords of Rathe

Authors: Meagan Brandy & Amo Jones

Release Date: October 6, 2023

The King of Darkness is dead.

It’s time for a new one to rise…

London Crow isn’t who I thought she was. 

She’s worse. 

My hate for her knows no bounds. 

My need for her has no end. 

But it’s my inability to have her that might just end us all, as the fates refuse to be ignored. 

Now, there’s a darkness sweeping the streets of Rathe, threatening to destroy the Kingdom we know and love, and it’s all because of her. 

The mate I can’t have. 

The bond I can’t let go. 

There is only one way to restore balance, and it begins and ends with her. 

The problem? I broke the girl into a thousand tiny pieces without a second thought. Earning her forgiveness won’t be easy, but that’s fine. 

If she won’t give it freely, I will take it. 

One mistake at a time.

First, this book picks up where Fate of a Royal leaves off, so you MUST read Fate first before diving into this book. 

London had been taking from her home, everything she had ever known and loved stolen from her. The one responsible? Knight. Her mate. And the Lord and future King of Rathe. Darkness sweeps through the streets of Rathe, and hate brews between London & Knight, but the Kingdom hangs in the balance between them. 

So, I absolutely love everything Meagan has ever put out. I greedily read it all, falling in love with every story, every character, every word. And Amo has this way about her stories- the mysteries and secrets won't be known until she is ready to reveal them. So these two authors coming together to write this dark and compelling story & series has been perfection. 

I loved Knight and London's story- the darkness and everything they had to face, not only against each other, but together was fascinating. I loved the dark and thrilling world of Rathe, and the side characters too. The story was gripping and action packed, digging its claws into you, and holding on, making you want more. To know more of what is going on, and salivating over the next installment. 

If you are a lover of fantasy romances, or new to the fantasy genre and want to dip your toes in, and if you love the dark and twisted, I recommend these books.
