God of Malice by Rina Kent

3.5

3.5 ⭐️
Spice: 🌶️🌶️.5/5
Format: ebook

I’m going to preface this by saying I am really only reading the other books in this series for more background about Bran and Niko. I can’t move on from God of Fury and I wanted to get their entire history.

I tried to read God of Malice maybe 20 times before I finally got through the first few chapters. I really was not vibing with Killian at first, not even from God of Fury. I also almost didn’t read GoF because I tried reading GoM first and initially DNF’d, so I was a little petty towards Kill and Glyn.

I still maintain that it’s not one of my favorite stories, but they did grow on me. There were quite a few times Killian had me giggling and kicking my feet. But I still don’t fully vibe with their meeting and the first few times they were together sexually. Bran told Grace to stop, and Glyn also very clearly told Kill the same. But I digress. Also Glyndon drove me nuts like 75% of this book, but she also drove me nuts in GoF so I wasn’t surprised.

Besides Nikolai and Brandon, a special shoutout to the other star of this book: Gareth. If he doesn’t get at least a novella, there will be tears and murder plots. I love him so much.

Overall, this book was just okay. I got the background I wanted and had some fun doing it. I don’t have much hope for Creighton and Annika’s story but we shall see…
