From the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Rina Kent comes a scorching standalone professor/student dark MM romance set in the Legacy of Gods' world.

My darkness meets a darker soul.

I’m a golden boy.

A genius law student, the heir to the Carson empire, and the dutiful son.

Or, at least, that's what it looks like from the outside.

Deep inside, I have the urge to set the world on fire.

I keep these impulses in check, rarely indulging in mayhem.

Until one night of debauchery backfires, and I'm caught by a villain.

I bury the entire ordeal with the rest of my skeletons.

That is, until that night walks into my classroom in the form of my new professor.

Kayden Lockwood.

A criminal who’s teaching criminal law.

I can't expose what he's done without unmasking my secret life.

What I can do, however, is force him to taste the poison he gave me.

In the clash of titans, Kayden and I break and crumble.

And I'm starting to realize this dangerous game may have no winners.

This is a dark romance with themes that may not be for everyone. Please visit the author's website for content warnings before listening.

OMG, this audiobook is everything! This is my first Rina Kent book and it’s exactly the push I needed to dive into the Rinaverse. I know I’m late to the party, but reading 30+ books to get to the Legacy of the Gods series felt daunting so I kept putting it off. Now I’m eager to go back and read about all the characters in this book.

Kayden and Gareth were a perfect match. As messy as they were together, they balanced each other out and matched each other’s energy.

The narration of this was phenomenal. Chef’s kiss, no notes. Stephen Dexter and Grayson Owens were perfectly cast as Kayden and Gareth. Stephen captured Kayden’s controlled menace expertly, while Grayson struck the perfect balance of unhinged and vulnerable as Gareth. That first scene with Gareth’s internal monologue, revealing his deviousness, was deliciously chilling. I also loved Stephen’s portrayal of the older Carson men, which made me even more eager to read Gareth’s dad’s books. This has to be my favourite performance by both narrators. The addition of Corvin King, Samantha Brentmoor, Shane East, Teddy Hamilton, and Viviene Larue as side characters added even more depth to the performance. Plus, Shane and Teddy’s reprisal of their roles as Bran and Nico made me even more excited to listen to God of Fury.

While I enjoyed this book, my one gripe was with the pacing. It wasn’t until about 60 or 70% that we really got into the underlying plot behind the romance. Some of Gareth’s internal monologue and his conversations with Kayden felt repetitive, making the story drag a little. Luckily, the narration more than made up for that to keep me engaged.

Amazing narration, captivating story
