Genres:

A searing Lords of the Underworld
tale by New York Times bestselling author Gena Showalter, featuring a beastly prince and the
wife he will wage war to keep.
He is ice...
Puck the Undefeated, host of the
demon of Indifference, cannot experience emotion without punishment, so he
allows himself to feel nothing. Until her. According to ancient prophecy, she
is the key to avenging his past, saving his realm, and ruling as king. All he
must do? Steal her from the man she loves—and marry her.
She is fire...
Gillian Shaw has suffered many
tragedies in her too-short life, but nothing could have prepared the fragile
human for her transition into immortality. To survive, she must wed a horned
monster who both intrigues and frightens her...and become the warrior queen she
was born to be.
Together they burn.
As a rising sense of possession and
obsession overtake Puck, so does insatiable lust. The more he learns about his
clever, resourceful wife, the more he craves her. And the more time Gillian
spends with her protective husband, the more she aches for him. But the
prophecy also predicts an unhappily ever after. Can Puck defeat fate itself to
keep the woman who brought his deadened heart back to life? Or will they
succumb to destiny, losing each other…and everything they’ve been fighting for?
My Thoughts
A lot of people are up in arms over this book. Gillian had a
flirty thing with William, a popular character in this ongoing series, but she
was too young for most of the books. Now, the author has her paired up with a
completely different character. So yikes for those shippers. Me on the other
hand, I really don’t care about any of the three characters at this point.
William, Gillian, and Puck are just eh to me. However, I’m ready to see where
this book takes the overall plot of the Lords of the Underworld universe.
What book are you
waiting for this Wednesday?
I haven't read Gena yet, but am hoping too soon. I enjoy PR as well as HR's and any romance,really. But not sure if I will start with this one.
