Working my way through the Rina Kent Universe

So about a year ago I started the legacy of gods series by Rina Kent after seeing it on tiktok. I absolutely loved it and went through the series pretty fast. Sadly, I didn't realize that it was towards the end of her book universe.

For awhile I thought about going back and starting from the beginning but the thing that really made me want to do it was finding out that most, if not all, of her books connect in some way. I wad do excited to learn more about characters that I didnt know that much about from the Legacy of Gods series.

Obviously I did go back and start reading them from the beginning. I have taken breaks and read other things in between but I am so glad I decided to do this. There is some characters that really annoy me but at the same time I end up loving them.

Like Jonathon, in his set of books with Aurora. I hate his tyrant ways, probably because I am a super stubborn person and I love to fight back when anyone tries to make me do anything. He left me super annoyed with his coldness and abrasive attitude. But I still ended up really loving this book and the way Aurora always fought back with him even though sometimes she still felt intimidated.

I would highly recommend reading any of Rina Kents books if you haven't already. Her stories suck you into a world you never want to leave.

Okay, real talk Rina Kent’s Legacy of Gods series has me hooked! These morally grey men are total chaos and definitely not your 10/10 kinda guys, but somehow I can’t look away. The drama, spice, and craving for me? Yes, please! United States Don’t judge me. 😉🚩 #legacyofgodsseries #books #dark
