Wrath of an Exile by Monty Jay

4.0

---

Thank you Valentine PR for providing me an early copy of this audiobook. All opinions are my own.  

It had been a loooong time since I read a dark romance, and this one just gave me all those classic dark romance feels.

This is a second gen series. I haven’t read the previous series, but you could tell there were some definitely found family vibes with all of Seraphina’s “uncles” and “aunts”. There also appears to have been a long brewing rivalry/hate between Seraphina’s family and Jude’s. 

I may have missed some of the intricacies of those storylines by not having read the previous series, but I felt the author did a good job solidifying all those old feelings, and how they have transferred over to this new generation.

Both these characters have so much trauma in their past, and a connection that fuels their hate for one another, but they are both in the dark about the truth of that connection, and once that truth is unveiled, everything kind of explodes from there.

Overall, this was an enjoyable read, and I definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a dark romance that hits all the right notes, especially if they were a fan of the Hollow Boys (aka, this series’ Daddies 🤭).

Audiobook notes: Duet Narration! Michelle Sparks and Liam DiCosimo did a great job with all the voices, but especially their main characters, and how they intersected together. 👍 on the audio!
