Review: Gleam by Raven Kennedy

Title: Gleam

Series: Plated Prisoner #3

Author: Raven Kennedy

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

The thing about being confined is that you believe itโ€™s to keep the bad out… Until you realize itโ€™s about keeping you in.

Iโ€™m now in a strange kingdom surrounded by liars, with no allies of my own, but I wonโ€™t sit idly by and let myself wither. No, thereโ€™s something thatโ€™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.

Heโ€™s sinister and powerful and entirely too seductive. Iโ€™ve learned my lesson with trusting manipulative kings, so why does my chest constrict every time heโ€™s near? I need to tread carefully, or Iโ€™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 wonโ€™t be caught in a cage again. No, this time, Itโ€™ll be me setting the trap… I just hope my heart comes out of this unscathed.

‘I probably look like the same gilded saddle, the same gold-touched favored. But if you look closer, you might see the gleam in my eye.’

Wowee!! <— I’m not sure I’ve ever used that word before!

So same as book 2, I devoured this in a day!

We have new scenery, new players who are just lustful for power as Midas and secrets and lies are revealed aplenty!

There are 2 things that shone out in this book for me. One was Auren’s character growth! It was immense and I was totally here for that!

The second was Rip and Auren together. They make my heart sing like a little birdie at dawn!

One thing I didn’t get from this story was I really wanted to know more about Rip. Where he came from, how he got to where he is…..all of it!!

I can’t believe I have to wait for May for the next book!
