God of Malice (Standard Edition) (Legacy of Gods, 1)

From USA Today bestselling author Rina Kent comes the first in a dark and steamy college romance series featuring elite criminal families and morally gray heroes. Killian Carson is unfeeling, cold-blooded, monstrous...and has developed an obsession with Glyndon that just might be both of their undoing.

Killian Carson is a predator wrapped in sophisticated charm. He's cold-blooded, manipulative, and vicious. Though his charisma and intelligence fool everyone, Glyndon sees right through him. She sees the psychopath within, and though her brain tells her to run, there's a secret part of her that knows the monster will only chase her...and she may want to get caught.

Glyndon King has never felt like anyone's favorite. Her mother and brothers are the artistic talents in the family, and she knows she will never live up to anyone's expectations. But Killian? He has no expectations except that she is now his. It doesn't matter that their schools are rivals--their possessive, all-consuming desire may be able to drown out everything else.

But can two people with broken souls truly repair the broken parts of each other's psyche? Can their dark and sinful desire overcome their history? When it turns out those pasts are more disturbingly entwined than they thought, they may come out stronger, or it may be their unraveling.

This book gave me a whole new trope era to explore, and I have fallen in love with all of the characters from the legacy of gods books. I have read and listen to our last one in the series.

I wanted to like this so much. I was hoping it was going to be like a great book about terrible people. I hated most of it. The writing was choppy and all over the place. The author used words that weren’t words. The sex scenes were actually the only part of this book that I found well-written, even the non-consensual ones. The ending left me saying ā€œwtf was thatā€ because it just didn’t flow with what the author seem to be conveying about the characters in the rest of the book. I also kept checking to see if this book was like second in a series or something because there’s literally NO setup for the ā€œworldā€ where this story takes place. Unless we are supposed to believe that it’s commonplace in colleges in England to have colleges run by rival secret gangs and mafia with multiple psychopaths in multiple families that all seem to go to the same set of schools in the same tiny island. I’m annoyed at how much I hated this book that I REALLY wanted to like.
