Hello everyone!!
Today we are reviewing A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire by Jennifer L. Armentrout which is the second book in her Blood and Ash series. It is a Fantasy Romance and was published in September 2020 by Blue Box Press.
I do not have words!! I loved this one too and I am eagerly awaiting for book three to come to my hands. I never thought I would like paranormal fantasy but apparently I do. At least these books.
I loved exploring more Poppy and Hawke's story and learning more about this world. JLA wrote this book so beautifully and she added tension and more feelings to it. I was expecting a plot twist but not that one.
I also liked how Poppy's character developed. She went trough many phases with her feelings and we got to experience that. This book made me love Hawke / Casteel even more, as we learned more about him and his character.
Rating: 5 Stars
Synopsis from Goodreads:
A Betrayal
Everything Poppy has ever believed in is a lie, including the man she was falling in love with. Thrust among those who see her as a symbol of a monstrous kingdom, she barely knows who she is without the veil of the Maiden. But what she does know is that nothing is as dangerous to her as him. The Dark One. The Prince of Atlantia. He wants her to fight him, and that’s one order she’s more than happy to obey. He may have taken her, but he will never have her.
A Choice
Casteel Da’Neer is known by many names and many faces. His lies are as seductive as his touch. His truths as sensual as his bite. Poppy knows better than to trust him. He needs her alive, healthy, and whole to achieve his goals. But he’s the only way for her to get what she wants—to find her brother Ian and see for herself if he has become a soulless Ascended. Working with Casteel instead of against him presents its own risks. He still tempts her with every breath, offering up all she’s ever wanted. Casteel has plans for her. Ones that could expose her to unimaginable pleasure and unfathomable pain. Plans that will force her to look beyond everything she thought she knew about herself—about him. Plans that could bind their lives together in unexpected ways that neither kingdom is prepared for. And she’s far too reckless, too hungry, to resist the temptation.
A Secret
But unrest has grown in Atlantia as they await the return of their Prince. Whispers of war have become stronger, and Poppy is at the very heart of it all. The King wants to use her to send a message. The Descenters want her dead. The wolven are growing more unpredictable. And as her abilities to feel pain and emotion begin to grow and strengthen, the Atlantians start to fear her. Dark secrets are at play, ones steeped in the blood-drenched sins of two kingdoms that would do anything to keep the truth hidden. But when the earth begins to shake, and the skies start to bleed, it may already be too late.
See you in the next post and don't forget to keep reading!!!
