About this ebook

Paedyn and Kai battle with duty and desire in this highly anticipated second installment in the sizzling and epic romantic fantasy trilogy that’s packed with spicy tension and edge-of-your-seat betrayal.

The kingdom of Ilya is in turmoil…

After surviving the Purging Trials, Ordinary-born Paedyn Gray has killed the King and kickstarted a Resistance throughout the land. Now she’s running from the one person she had wanted to run to.

Kai Azer is now Ilya’s Enforcer, loyal to his brother Kitt, the new King. He has vowed to find Paedyn and bring her to justice.

Across the deadly Scorches, and deep into the hostile city of Dor, Kai pursues the one person he wishes he didn’t have to. But in a city without Elites, the balance between the hunter and hunted shifts—and the battle between duty and desire is deadly.

Ratings and reviews

Finally... Pae and Kai confessed their feelings to each other, and the way they did it is AMAZING..... and maybe a little awkward. I love you, Lauren,but that scene gave me second-hand embarrassment, but in a way that made me blush and giggle. Ahhhhh, I was blushing and giggling at random times that got me some questioning looks from my mom and dad. Words can't begin to describe how good this book was! THANK YOU, LAUREN FOR ANOTHER AMAZING BOOK!! I just started Fearless, and it's already great!

This was a five star book right from the start. It was very engaging and made me want to read it more and more. I totally ship kai and paedyn and hope for their happily ever after in the later books. The plot twists were shocking and i daresay turning every page was addictive. Can't wait to read the latest book in the series after the major cliffhanger of this book. You should read this series. Trust me, you won't regret it. Happy reading :)

Reckless was such a wild ride! I loved the mix of action, romance, and mystery. Kai and Paedyn's chemistry is off the charts, and I was rooting for them the whole time. The world-building is amazing, and I can't wait to see what happens next. It's one of those books that you just can't put down. If you're into fantasy with a touch of romance, you definitely need to check this one out
