Description

"I don't choose him. Not anymore. I'm choosing me. "

King Midas made me the woman I am today. Notorious. Unattainable. His.

The thing about being confined is that you believe it’s to keep the bad out. ...Until you realize it’s about keeping you in.

I’m now in a strange kingdom surrounded by liars, with no allies of my own, but I won’t sit idly by and let myself wither. No, there’s something that’s bloomed from the pit of my repression. Something dark. Something angry.

But the last thing I expected was for my anger to call out to him. King Ravinger.

He’s sinister and powerful and entirely too seductive. I’ve learned my lesson with trusting manipulative kings, so why does my chest constrict every time he’s near? I need to tread carefully, or I’m at risk of losing much more than just my freedom.

Regret and revenge war inside of me, and I need to figure out a plan fast before I get tangled up in the schemes of kings and queens.

Because I won’t be caught in a cage again. No, this time, it’ll be me setting the trap.
…I just hope my heart comes out of this unscathed.

Please note: This is an adult fantasy series with dark elements that may be triggering, as well as explicit scenes.

Inspired loosely by the King Midas myth, this series offers a brutal and beautifully written look at trauma, captivity, and what it means to break free—not just from others, but from the lies we tell ourselves.Auren is a fascinating protagonist. At the start, she’s Midas’s prized possession—literally gilded in gold, kept in a cage, and convinced that her life is one of love and protection. But as the series progresses, she begins to question everything she’s been told, and watching her unravel those beliefs, piece by piece, is incredibly satisfying. Her growth is the heart of this story—slow, painful, but powerful.Midas is as manipulative and toxic as they come, and Raven Kennedy does an excellent job showing just how insidious emotional abuse can be. Then enters Slade (or Commander Rip
