Throne of Truth by Pepper Winters
Publication Date: February 28th, 2017
Genre: Contemporary Romance
TWO YEARS
Since my life changed for the second time and not necessarily for the better. Two years since I traded prison bars for streets and hunted a runaway who I’d met in an alley.
TWO DAYS
Since I forgot how to lie, woke to fists, and chased after the girl who’d been stolen from me.
TWO HOURS
To save her, rescue her, keep my lies intact. She looks at me full of hate. I look at her full of confession.
TWO MINUTES
For our relationship to switch from mutual dislike to floundering with unknowns. I’ve hurt her. Now, she’s hurt me. I guess we’re even.
TWO SECONDS
For her to listen, to see, to finally know who I am. The answer comes with hardship. The answer isn’t what she wants to hear.
TWO BREATHS
For me to walk out the door.
TWO HEARTBEATS
For it all to be over.
MY OPINION
Dramatic and
fated, this conclusion to Crown of Lies is one dark romance that grabs you and
never lets go till the last heart-pounding page.
I was
painfully impatient and needy to read this because I craved to uncover all the
secrets, and to see Penn redeem himself from all his lies and his ill treatment
of Elle. And, believe me, he does. So does she!
This strong
woman realizes many things, too, and fights her own guilt. Yet this novel jumps
from one terrifying obstacle to the happiness to another with scary celerity. I
cringed at the severity of Elle's ordeal at the beginning of this second and
last novel. She suffers so much, yet is always strong, resilient. The wods
describe both her helplessness and her bravery so vividly.
SPOILER
The only
thing that was confusing for me is what happens after she is saved from her
ordeal. She goes to Penn's home without waiting for the police to give a
statement and have evidence gathered of her bruises and mistreatment.
END OF
SPOILER
Anyway, all
the past injustices and hurts coalesce into the present, drowning Penn and Elle
in another wave of despair that prevents them from being together, of healing
their wounds and start anew. That part was incredibly intense and harrowing.
They hate and love each other with ferocity, and it was amazing to read!
The
characters fight to the bone for their freedom to enjoy love at last. It's a
tale of atonement, of restitution, of lust and need and forgiveness and wrongs
so raw that they become yours. I admit that Penn was stubborn as hell and he
dragged the impossible nature of them being together too far, I'd have cut out
his last stand and make-up scene, but it all paid off in the end. Impressive
dark romance.
