Is Sunset Worth Reading? Review

“I fled my engagement party and found him on a basketball court at midnight.” I had three months of freedom before I was married off in a business arrangement like it was nothing more than a possession. My escape was Crescent Bay University, a last ditch effort at taking control of my life before it got snatched from me. I wasn’t prepared for a 6’4, amber eyed basketball captain, who was known to be closed off. But if it’s true that he doesn’t do relationships and he has no interes in women, why can’t he take his eyes off me? When his eyes met mine, something electric sparked between us. Something dangerous. Something neither of us could walk away from. Then his eyes flashed gold, and I realized my temporary escape had led me somewhere far more dangerous than I’d ever imagined. He has secrets that could destroy me. I have power I never knew existed. And the men hunting us will burn the world down before they let us be together. Some bonds can’t be broken. Some loves are worth dying—or killing—for

She was raised on stories of fated mates and everlasting love. So when she discovers her mate during the annual Moon Gathering, she believes the moon goddess has finally smiled on her. That is, until she learns who he is. Alpha North of Night Sword Pack is the most feared alpha throughout the South for his ruthless leadership and brutal traditions. His pack respects only strength, and the weak are shown no mercy. To Alpha North, mates are a distraction. To his pack, Tamara is an outsider. And to the women competing for the title of Luna, she is an obstacle that needs to be removed. Determined to prove herself, Tamara enters the deadly Luna Trials, where only one woman can claim the title. Surrounded by enemies, challenged at every turn, and haunted by a mate who wants her in his bed but refuses to claim her, she quickly realizes that surviving Night Sword pack may cost her everything. But while Tamara fights for her place, a far more dangerous threat is growing within the pack. Someone else wants to become Alpha. So when blood is spilled and loyalties are tested, Tamara will have to decide how much she is willing to sacrifice for a pack that never wanted her. Because in Night Sword, strength is everything. And becoming Luna is not given. It is earned.

My father is the High God of the Sun, and my mother is the Empress of the Moon. Ever since I was born, they’ve had two suitors lined up for me. First, there’s Sol, the God of Dawn. He rules the Temple of Light and controls everything warm and bright in this world. Then there’s Karnos, the Shadow Sovereign. He rules the Dark Realm with a power so absolute it makes the other gods tremble. On the day of my Millennium Awakening, whichever man I choose as my husband will become the Supreme Ruler of the entire Divine Realm. Without a second thought, I chose Karnos. The crowd went dead silent. Everyone was losing their minds because I’d been head-over-heels for Sol since we were kids. I’d even sworn an oath that I’d never marry anyone but him. But what they don't know is that in my past life, I did marry Sol. And on our very first night as husband and wife, he crawled into bed with my maid, Lilith. When the news broke, Lilith was banished to the mortal world. Sol never forgave me for that. He blamed me for her exile. After I got pregnant, he started bringing a different goddess home every single night, forcing me to watch while they were intimate right in front of me. It got worse. On the day I went into labor, he intentionally sent away every single healing deity. He ignored my screams and pleas for help, leaving me and my unborn child to die in absolute agony. So, now that I’ve been reborn, I’ve decided to let him have his "true love." I’m walking away and choosing Karnos instead. But there’s one thing I didn’t count on... Sol remembered everything, too.
