Will you survive The Initiation?

Hi, book buddies :-) How are you doing? I bet you have never read anything quite like the book I have for you today. THE INITIATION is quite a journey into a depraved and gripping world. Come and have a taste...

MY OPINION

I feel as if I've gone through a primitive initiation of my own after reading this book. My mind is blown!

Decadent, dirty, dazzling.

And so much more that's beyond my expectations.

Knowing it is written by this author, I was expecting some deliciously wicked twists, but the depth and focus of this plot just gave me goosebumps like champagne bubbles. It's brilliant.

Great writing style, mysterious characters and spellbinding plot.

The female character may seem a fragile buterfly caught in a web of deceit, ruthless power and corrupting luxury. Yet she rises to every challenge with bold bravery and intelligence. I loved her valiant efforts to face every obstacle, every secret and mask of deception without succumbing to submission or fear. She truly shone because she felt real and was scared when she had to be, but she relentlessly pursued her goals to save her family and still keep true to herself. A quest she shares with an intensely seductive man who could be an ally in a sordid path lined with wolves. One of those wolves is also a villain that plays another interesting role in this dark and sensual suspense romance. The latter is in its first stages, but the potential is very promising.

I was utterly surprised when the depraved climax took a very unexpected and empowering angle that intertwined perfectly with the mythology undertone of Marist's character. Only to be followed by a rapid succession of danger, betrayal and lust that left me breathless and hungry for more :-D I can't wait, but I certainly will, for the next book. Wow. Perfection.

Favourite Quotes:

I fell in love with the library in one slow, wondrous blink.

Kissing me had literally brought Royce Hale to his knees.

ENJOY AN EXCERPT:

Every pair of eyes in the restaurant was on us as we were led to our table for dinner. Probably not every pair, but God, it felt that way. “Is it just me,” I asked over the top of my menu, “or is everyone staring at us?” Royce was indifferent. “They’re staring at you.” His statement rattled me. “Why?” “Because you’re here with me.” His gaze never lifted to mine, like he couldn’t be bothered. “Or more likely, because you’re fucking gorgeous. Who knows?” Breath halted in my lungs. “You can’t just say shit like that.” The leather-bound menu holder dropped onto the table with a thud, and I was met with the full power of Royce’s irritated stare. “That you’re beautiful? You are. Get over it.” Dismay twisted my lips into a frown. “Please, don’t. I don’t need bullshit lines from someone like you.”

  “It’s not a line, and . . . someone like me?” More annoyance darted through his eyes, but intrigue too. “What’s that supposed to mean?” How was I going to put it into words? “You’re a ‘haver.’ I mean, you could have any woman in this room if you wanted, and probably some of the guys too. You’re young, hot, and filthy rich.” His irritation vanished. It was replaced with an arrogant expression that said none of this was news to him. I pushed forward, gathering steam. “Me?” I said. “I’m a ‘have-not.’ I’m sure you didn’t intend for it to happen, but when you said I was a nobody, you made it true. No one will touch me.” “I touched you.”

  He was immune to my scorching glare. “You wanted to know why I was still a virgin last year. Well, there’s your answer. You’re the reason, Royce. Nobody would be caught dead with me.” He considered the accusation I’d lobbed at him. “You’re wrong,” he said finally. “I was aware what was going to happen. It’s exactly why I said it.” My head turned into a void. “What?” He leaned over the table to ensure he had my full attention. “I saw you at the bar with your sister that night. You were swaying to the music, all happy, and pretty, and it pissed me off. My father had already laid out plans for me. I was supposed to be with Emily, but that wasn’t what I wanted.” I clenched the menu in my hands. I sensed where he was going, but I couldn’t wrap my head around it. My heart chugged along, thumping loudly in my ears. “So, yeah. I knew you were behind me when I called you a nobody. I did it on purpose, because I couldn’t stand you with anyone else. I wanted you for myself.” “Oh, my God.” My body flushed hot, although I didn’t know if it was with anger or excitement, or a deadly combination of the two.
