Claimed by Raven Amor

4.0

The author includes a warning that you need to pay attention to, just like the first book.

Rae starts the reader off where Captured ended. So, to follow the story properly don’t start here. It would be like cheating and reading the ending before you even start the book. Previously, I felt that the emotions were very raw compared to a lot of the other MC reads that are out there and I feel the same here. The rough and violent life portrayed also continues.

Some of the author’s words, and scenes, may be hard to forget. I made a note to self, don’t read this before going to bed. There were just certain things that happened that I didn’t want to carry over before closing my eyes for the day – what nightmares are made of. Our author knows how to write evil very well.

For me, it seemed like our author wrote this story for Rae. Even though we get to hear from Ice, and he shows us how much pain he is feeling, Rae is at the center of what is going on. It was nice getting to know some of the other members briefly as well but it always came back to our main characters. We get to meet someone new and I’ll be interested to see if this person makes appearances going forward – just one more reason to keep following the series. Ms. Amor seems to be building steam as each tale comes out.

Our author still creates people that you wouldn’t want to meet in a dark alley but the story itself will grab your attention. There just never seemed to be a good, even while reading the bad, spot to let the story go. If you have the time, this could be read in one sitting. But once again, I’m left wanting more and not happy that I have to wait in order to find out what that more is. However, I know that it will be worth the wait.

I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
