A few of my favorites quotes from the book...
"His tone is deep. As if it was made in hell, then woven through silk. A gentle caress that singes your senses."
"That's the difference between me and other people. They run away from the bad things, and I become them."
"But our strength is impatience. In planning. That is what topples empires. Together we rule, divided we fall."
"Death inevitably changes you. "
"I'll be damned if this woman wasn't molded in the heavens and plucked from the sky just for me. "

I much preferred Hooked (book number 1) but this was nonetheless a good audiobook. It’s a retelling twisted version of The Lion King, always fun when the villain you think you know becomes a sexy anti-hero.
I struggled to get into the flow of the story towards the beginning. By the end I was invested and glad I stuck with it.
