Riven Knight by Devney Perry

4.0

Tell me why my dumb ass didn't realize the relationship between Isaiah and Kane from the Lark Cove series until way too far into this book lol.

Anywho, Riven Knight is book 2 in the Clifton Forge series and it follows Genevieve and Isaiah who definitely had us asking questions at the end of Steel King. The two are married only days after first meeting when Isaiah saved Genevieve after her kidnapping. Isaiah was the definition of emotionally unavailable and Genevieve is still mourning the loss of her mother. They both had some skeletons in their closet that made them becoming shells of their former selves. However the longer they fake their marriage, the closer they grow. I really loved how we got to see both characters slowly coming out of their shells, and the little moments where they grew closer and closer. I liked how the murder plot carried over from the first book and we finally got answers to our questions. ALSO WTF WAS UP WITH THAT ONE THING THAT HAPPENED???? I WAS ACTUALLY SO SAD. WHY.

Similar to the first book, we get another cliffhanger/look into what the next book is going to look like and I am very excited to dive in!
