Master of Salt & Bones

Meet the Devil of Blackthorne Manor ...When I was a little girl, I dreamed a handsome knight would come and rescue me from my wretched mother. He'd ride up on his white steed and break the curse I've been fated to carry since the day I was born.Funny how things changed over time. How the fairy tale twisted into something far more crooked, darker than I ever imagined.In reality, my knight is scarred and broken, living alone in a castle of bones that overlooks the sea. He isn't searching for me. He never was.Lucian Blackthorne is as cursed as I am, and equally shunned by the locals, the fishers of men, who believe him to be the devil in the flesh.Perhaps he is, with the way his amber eyes draw me in, ignite me like an infernal blaze. And the sins he whispers in my ear are as wickedly intoxicating as the man himself.Yet, his touch is heaven and his will is my weakness.He calls us forbidden, an unsalvageable tragedy, with no happy end. Maybe we are. But in this story, he's the one who needs saving.Master of Salt & Bones is a dark modern gothic contemporary standalone romance.

Exceptionally dark, read trigger warnings. Felt somewhat like a depression and trauma themed mystery box in story form. Some of the plot you could piece together but as a whole it’s a lot and it felt like there was constantly something else to add to the depth of each situation.
Another great story by Keri Lake! I know my reviews are vague but I don't like to spoil!
"...there is music in madness, and madness in love" Lucian and Isadora a dark forbidden love story. This is an age gap the FMC is 19. This is a dark romance. It is not forever one, but it was definitely for me. We have a possessive MMC, with a dark flair to him and troubled past. The FMC is troubled as well. It reads like a 4 star, but I took a half star because, I felt like there was more to this story. Also so lose ends that were never resolved. But overall Ms. Keri Lake gave us drak and erie and tragic.
I Don’t Care I’m Giving It 5 Stars!!! I Absolutely Loved Reading This Book!!! Lucian Blackthorne Has My Heart. This Book Absolutely Mind F**cked Me But I Was More Intrigued Than Anything And Couldn’t Put The Book Down!!!! Also I Knewww That Solange Wasn’t A Hallucination!!!! I Knew Itttttt!!!!! Ughhh I Wish I Could Read It For The First Time Again
The book is long, and at some points really slow, but the ending really saved the overall story for me. I did not see the ending coming, and the revelations that happened, my jaw was on the ground.
The romance between the FMC & MMC was a little too hard and fast for my liking, but overall the tension and spice was ON POINT.
