It’s just bad. Every other character was so much more interesting than the main characters stupid ship

This is my first Rina Kent book to have read and I plan on reading the rest of the Legacy of God's series.

For both the first book of hers I've read and the first book in the series, it wasn't too bad! Obviously there are flaws in the book that had me rethinking my choices, especially in the early chapters (iykyk) but overall I thought that the plot would be more dark - it's more centered around the trope of a dark romance than the whole book being a dark themed -  so I was a little disappointed that the book didn't take it a little further.

Unfortunately I just couldn't get myself to like the FL Glyndon King, I think maybe I've read too many romances or the character was just generic, I can't make up my mind on which one it is - she's just too predictable with her character to literally nearly everything she says in every chapter, I mean even the love interest Killian calls her a broken record multiple times. 

Not sure if I'll come back to this novel soon, but I'm hoping the second book in the series will be a little better!

I will read the other books in the series because I’m curious what happens next. It’s entertaining to read. I hate Killian. Their relationship isn’t adorable and I don’t ship it.

It’s okay for dark romance but as far as stabby stabby goes there wasn’t enough gore in my personal opinion 😅. Anywho the plot was good. Too many characters to keep up with.
