I was settin' up to live a good life, the kinda life I'd fought hard to deserve.With a good woman--the best woman--at my side, a degree under my belt, and the whole world at my feet, I was livin' the kinda happily ever after usually denied the rebellious and the criminal. I'd turned my back on that kinda life, thinkin' I needed that clean, wholesome kinda happy.Then the devil came dressed in the wings of an angel and took someone from me.And I realized I was wrong.There was no clean and wholesome for a man like me with poetry in his heart and outlaw in his blood. The life I'd been livin' was only purgatory, holding me over until the time came for me to descend into Hell and pick up the tarnished crown that awaited me.I was condemning my woman to a life of violence, blood, and heartache, but I had to hope she'd step up and finally be the rough and tumble queen to my Fallen MC king.*After the Fall can be read as a stand-alone romance, but you first meet the couple in Lessons in Corruption (The Fallen Men, #1)*… (more)

I was so excited to get a second book for King and Cress. Even though it was implied that their love was going to be for the long haul in Zeus and HR's books there still felt like they were somehow gipped of showing it. There was no mistaking their love but there was so much room to grow. The author gave me that in this book.

Having written several essays on Paradise Lost (and the fact that Eve was the true HERO of the story) while I was pursuing my degree in Literature, I TOTALLY appreciated how the author incorporated that in the story. There is no mistaking that this author has a gift when it comes to her stylistic choices, her cadence, and her ability to make her audience truly feel emotions via her words. It oftentimes leaves me gobsmacked. This is definitely a story that showcases that she is a master wordsmith.

My issue with the story came in the fact that I had expected that it would pick up where the last had ended or just have a brief catch up to get to that point so that the story could progress. It didn't. It took a long time of rehashing that that took me out of the story and frustrated me because I wanted, no I needed, to get to the part of their story of them in the future showing how their love had burned as bright as I had hoped it would in their first book. That being said, I cannot recommend this book enough. Her poetry, the connection, the emotions... just all of it was truly out of this world. ( )
