OMG!
I have been waiting for what feels like forever for Ruin, which is the second book in the Slay Quartet, written by author Laurelin Paige. I absolutely love the first book, and I almost died when it ended with such a massive cliffhanger! So, as soon as I saw the second book on my Kindle, I dropped everything and dove right in! In case you’re not aware, this series has a continuous storyline, so make sure you read Slay, the first book in the series. Also, be prepared for it to end with another cliffhanger!
Ruin starts where we were left off in the first book. And let me tell you, I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. I just devoured every word! And I am dying to fill you in, but you seriously need to read it on your own without any spoilers! I just love Celia and Edward, and I can’t wait to see what happens in the third book Revenge, which is expected to be published on February 25th, 2020.
Completely unputdownable!

Yes, she was calculating and manipulative, and she was very spoiled about getting her way, but that was all surface. She was an onion. There were layers and layers underneath, parts of her that she held away. Parts she showed no one. For whatever reason, I’d caught sight of what she kept hidden, whether she’d meant for that to happen or not, I couldn’t be sure. Regardless, I was captivated. There was so much to see there, so much to take down. So much of her to know and own and destroy and redesign, and like an old habit, I couldn’t break away.
She was an addiction, and I wanted to feed on it. She wasn’t supposed to be like that.
She wasn’t supposed to want to bend to my whims. She wasn’t supposed to open up and give what I asked for. She wasn’t supposed to be so eager to take what I gave her. She certainly wasn’t supposed to see past my own curtain, wasn’t supposed to ask to see more.
I’m here for this, she’d said.
SLAY: RIVALRY
(Slay #1)
by Laurelin Paige
Release Date: June 4th
Edward Fasbender is a devil.
He’s my father’s business rival, a powerful, vicious man who takes what he wants and bows to no one. I only took the meeting because I was curious. I thought he was going to offer me a job.
But that’s not what he’s after at all. His proposal is much more intriguing, and I see an opportunity. An opportunity to turn the tables and bring down the devil.
I’ve gotten in trouble playing these games before. I know when the risk is too great, when the stakes are too high. I know how to be cold and strong-willed and destructive. I know how to withstand dominant men with arrogant charm and rugged features.
Yet I can’t resist taking on Edward.
And I can’t resist the pull he has on me.
Soon I’m not so sure which side of the battle I’m standing on–if I’m the warrior meant to slay,
Or the one who will be slain.

Wow! That was flipping fantastic!
Slay: Rivalry is the first book in the Slay Quartet, and it’s one of my absolute favorite books this year! It does have a continuous storyline, so be prepared for it to end with a massive cliffhanger! Honestly, I must admit that I cursed a couple times when I got to that last page.
The storyline was full of so many twists and turns, but it was the characters that really made the story even more amazing. Celia and Edward had me going back and forth between loving and hating them. They also knew how to really turn up the heat! Phew (fanning self). I want to tell you all about it, but this is one book you need to read without any spoilers!
Completely unputdownable!
