She was reborn a Goddess—but stripped of everything she once was.
Corla no longer exists. In her place stands Leyenda, the newly forged Goddess of War, her mortal lives erased from memory, her past reduced to an ache she cannot name. Worshipped, feared, and bound by divine fate, Leyenda is days away from ascending as the bride of Lycaster, the God of Breath—and ruler of the Gods themselves.
But Lycaster is not her savior.
He is her captor.
Across lifetimes she cannot remember, he has hunted her, claimed her, obsessed over her. Now, with her power awakened and her will constrained by divine law, he believes he has finally won. Yet Leyenda feels the truth clawing its way through the cracks of her fractured mind: she is missing something. Someone. And the golden cage surrounding her is far more dangerous than the wars she was born to wage.
As whispers of her former selves stir and the Fates tighten their threads, Leyenda must decide whether she will submit to the destiny chosen for her—or become the vengeance the Gods never saw coming.
Because war remembers what the mind forgets. And Gods bleed just the same.
Dark, seductive, and unflinchingly fierce, Your Path is Vengeance is a New Adult dark fantasy romance about stolen identities, divine obsession, and the brutal cost of reclaiming your power.
Parker A. Garner is an author based in Tennessee, where she lives with her husband and their many beloved pets. A lifelong lover of storytelling, she has been writing for as long as she can remember and eventually followed her passion into publishing. When she's not crafting new stories, Parker enjoys traveling and immersing herself in different cultures, always seeking inspiration in the people and places she encounters.
“You were not made for this simple life, my dearest. You were made to shatter the world.”
Parker does it once again. This book ties so much of the story together in this series. The breadcrumbs OMG, to read all these books together back to back is going to be a must for me one day. It’s very hard to write this review without spoiling anything. However, our dear Corla Leads an interesting life, and Ramsi is the best book boyfriend hands down. Old characters betrayals are revealed, lesser known characters come to light and take a main role. Don’t worry you will cry, is it even a Parker garner book if you don’t?
THE END, oof what an ending.
Anyway, thank you Parker for trusting me to be a part of your ARC crew since book one, these are my honest opinions.
Book 3 of this epic adventure and as always I only have glowing things to say.
Parker writes such a captivating story and the way the different lives of the characters follows each story and changes is incredible. From the very first line of each of her books you will be sucked in. The past lives had me confused for a bit, but I was in it when I remembered where I left off.
Oh Parker... okay, so at the end of book one I RAN to book two. I read one chapter and ran back to book one, started it over, highlighting, like an idiot, all the things I thought I would need throughout this series. Then I started book two and it didn't even start at the finish. Okay, you got me, Parker, you got me. I'm reading and reading and starting to put some pieces together and really getting in my groove and then I am quickly reminded exactly why Parker effing Garner is an absolute out of this world, brilliant and beautiful writer who I love and equally want to throw things at. Her ability to suck you into a story and then leave you thinking you know... but you don't know... then drops you at a cliffhanger only to turn around like, "Oh you thought it would be that easy?"
Did I continue highlighting throughout book two? Yes. Because surely it will come in handy for book three? It doesn't. Again, we are thrown into an entirely different life. Not really, though because at this point you've lived two and now you're just along for the ride of the third. If you really stop and think about this world and how it was methodically put together by one mind, it's quite baffling. Before starting Your Path Is Sorrow I had finished The Plated Prisoner series, Shield of Sparrows/Rites of the Starling, and The Shepherd King duology, some pretty epic Romantasy. I wanted to jump back into my indies and knew the reviews on this series were excellent. I just had no idea what had been sitting on my shelves this entire time.
Corla, our FMC is never who you think. She's written so wonderfully relatable in some ways and more strong than you think she can be. It doesn't matter when or where, Corla can be so different yet Parker keeps the heart of her present in each version we get.
Ramsi, our MMC number one. Chapter one of book one is my favorite Ramsi. Then you get to see his taunting a little more for a few chapters until we learn a lot more about him and how he's not what we expected. What I really enjoy about his character is he doesn't soften up like some MMC where they start out as this tough shadow daddy then turn into this puddle at the woman's feet. I really dislike when that happens. I mean, do some people like a string man who turns into a puppy? I guess but I'm not one of them. Ramsi is Ramsi throughout. He is broody, quick to anger, a tad bit scary at all times but also funny and caring but not in a sissy sort of way. He is the true shadow daddy.
Di*kaster... I mean, do I need words? Yes and actually I think I need a lot of them. We all hate this dude. We all agree Parker needs to give us a slow, painful, completely aware the entire time cessation of this man's life. It cannot be a quick, clean ending for Liecaster. The point is we all agree. The amount of ick this character gives us is up there. He gives me the same ick Homelander from The Boys gives me. It gets under your skin and makes you fear someone in a way that is truly uncomfortable. With that being said, can we take a moment of silence to appreciate the writing behind this character development. He's not just a name on a page. He isn't just actions that trigger. He has been created and built through various timelines throughout three books, so far. Each book growing his potential until the reader reaches a point where they are throwing the book, or kindle, or at least strongly wanting to. I commend Parker on her writing ability with this character. I love them all for different reasons but it's this effing dude here that puts Parker up there with the most elite in writers. You think Corla and Ramsi are the main characters but it's Douchecaster who is the star of the show because when he slithers onto the page, you know darn well you're bracing for impact.
Zurick. Ugh. Again, Parker's ability to write a creepy character excels again with Zurick. The thing is, his psycho is vastly different than Lycaster. Zurick isn't as empty and disturbing as Lycaster but his disgust-o-meter is off the charts. He reminds me of Alastair from Supernatural. As I was reading Zurick I did it with Alastair's S sounds and the creepy cadence with which he talks. He's gross and crazy in all the ways that make you want to leave a room when someone makes you uncomfortable but you can't cause it's a book that you need to keep reading, lol.
Laurel, sweet Laurel. I just did not see it coming. I have so many questions and so many theories and I know it's all futile because Parker is going to just throw it all out the window in book four.
The ending of this book... the only thing I can say is exactly what I said when I finished it and that is, "What? Wait... what?! What? What?!?!!??!"
I've never been three books in and left with more questions than answers and I just knew it would end that way after book two. I cannot wait for book four and I cannot wait for this series to blow up on Booktok and Bookstagram. If it were up to me everyone would be talking about it, and I am trying to push it to everyone out there, so until then I will continue talking about it, sharing it, and obsessing over it!
Your Path is Sacrifice is where Corla becomes your everything.
I am struggling to write this review. Not for any reason other than anything I type might spoil it but I want to write a review that draws everyone in, not one that hides because hiding, not saying what needs to be said, and swallowing the truth are what lead to so much of the pain and sorrow in these books.
Still drying my eyes and soothing my soul from Sacrafice, I dived into Vengeance, partly because I could not leave the story there but also because I wanted to make sure to finish the ARC before it was released. I knew I wanted to be ready to shout out to the world as soon as possible about the 3rd installment to The Fates Entwined series.
I almost didn't make it; there were parts I had to reread because my mind wandered off imagining ways to torture and destroy Lycaster and Ezra to make them pay. So good was Parker's writing. Throughout this series I have cried, raged, and giggled out loud.
Now that we know Corla and Corla, we find ourselves back with Leyenda, and for the 3rd time we have the displeasure of living through her torture. This time, more psychological, more icky, more enraging. You want nothing more than to cut out Lycaster's (eye) balls and at the same time shake Leyenda vigorously, getting her to snap out of the gaslit cage he has trapped her in.
There were moments when my smartwatch started a "run" program because my heart rate shot up and I had to do breathing exercises after forcing myself to put the book down at night, just so I could sleep. When I tell you that I connected with this book, I do not mean this superficially.
Even the moments of calm were quickly shattered. Parker really captured the effects on the psyche of living in an abusive relationship, even after you have escaped. As Leyenda becomes Corla once more, having to now weave the parts that are Leyenda in because her abuser gives her no choice, you can't help but want to wrap her up and hold her forever. But she has a job to do, and I can't believe I have to wait for book 4 to see her do it, but I am also so scared of what may come before she does...
THIS WILL NOT BREAK ME is not only a quote but a mantra within this book for our FMC Corla.
Well, Your Path is Vengeance by @parkeragarnerauthor most definitely broke me but it also taught me so much more 🖤
Words may not correctly pull together all of my feelings for this book and the series it lies within but here's y best shot 😭😭😭
Parker, Parker, Parker, you have done it once again with creating a story I just did not want to put down!! The Fates Entwined Series by Parker A.Garner has been one of my favorites and after each new book that has come out I'm just more invested and obsessed than the last.
Do you love emotional reads that are easy to supply you with emotional damage, plots twists and a storyline that is so unique? Like not just with all the tears (there are definitely those moments) but reads that also make you want to rage for the MCs or have your heart truely aching as they go through the trials of their story and then by the end somehow it leaves you both emotionally drained and also so full at the same time. Then do yourself a favor and pick up this series!
Your Path is Vengeance is so well crafted that I felt every little detail had a specific part in leading us along the breadcrumb trail to piece the puzzle together to get to the end page that left us tettering on the edge of the biggest cliffhanger. Just as I thought I was peiceing all the things together and was getting somewhere with my theories, Parker did it yet again and threw the biggest twist at us to keep my theory board out.
On top of an amazing plot and twisty storyline The Rite of Vengeance is filled with some of my FAVORITE charcaters (talking about you Corla, Ramsi, and Heron) and my MOST HATED villains (IYKYK). Parker creates characters that bring all of the emotions to surface and they don't hold back.
The love story entwined into this series is so heartbreakingly beautiful and transcends across lifetimes, lost memories, and stolen identities.
Am I ready and will be continuing on with the next Book in The Fates Entwined Series? Absolutely! But my emotions may be thankful they have some time to recover as this is an ongoing series 🖤
It’s probably no surprise—I absolutely adore Parker and this series—but I devoured this book.
Every installment has been an immediate five-star read for me, and this one is no different. Corla has already been through so much, and Vengeance pushes her even further. With her mortal life erased from her memory, she’s forced to navigate her role as the Goddess of War while sensing that something isn’t right. Glimpses of a forgotten past and a person she can’t quite remember keep breaking through, and watching her fight to uncover the truth is incredibly compelling.
Lycaster is somehow even worse here. In my review of book two, I said that if you hated him in book one, to be prepared to hate him more—and that absolutely still holds. His control over Corla—renaming her, forcing her into marriage, manipulating her power and even her mind—cements him as one of the most hateable characters in the series. I’m very ready to see how his story ends, and I hope it’s brutal.
Corla’s journey remains one of self-discovery, and this installment really leans into that. Her struggle to remember, reclaim herself, and break free drives the story in a powerful way, and once things start to click into place, everything shifts.
Ramsi is back and better than ever—but I’ll leave it at that, because spoilers.
The character development for both Corla and Laurel was especially well done, and I’m excited to see what’s next for them. If you love stories fueled by feminine rage, this one absolutely delivers.
And that twist/reveal at the end?? I need the next book immediately!
Parker’s writing is immersive, from the world-building to the characters, and she does a fantastic job weaving the books together into an incredible story that spans lives and worlds. I love how she drops little breadcrumbs throughout the series that you'll only pick up on if you’re paying attention. I highly recommend this series!
Parker A. Garner threw us for a loop by taking us 400 years into the past for Sacrifice, so really I’ve been dying for this book ever since I finished Sorrow! 😅 I’m not complaining, though, because the background Sacrifice gave us really set the stage for Vengeance.
Corla’s mortal life is no more, and her memories are erased with it. As she becomes the Goddess of War, Corla has to fight with forgotten memories breaking free of their cage. As she tries to put the pieces of her past lives together, she also has to suffer through more of Lysander’s manipulations and torture.
Speaking of Lysander, I didn’t think it was possible to hate him more than I did after Book 2. I was wrong… 😅🤬 Here’s to hoping he eventually has a very brutal end.
My heart broke for Laurel in this book, and I was jumping up and down for her in Chapter 31. Iykyk 👀 the new development for her character has me so intrigued and excited to see what’s next for her in Book 4.
Ramsi is better than ever in this one, but I don’t want to say too much more than that to avoid spoilers. The reunion between him and Corla was chef’s kiss, and it was everything I was hoping for! 🌶️
I loved the part Heron played in this one, and I cannot wait to see where his storyline goes from here. I’m really excited for and hoping it goes in the direction I’m anticipating, especially since I enjoyed his dynamic with both Corla and Ramsi. 👀
I 100% did not see the twist coming at the end, and that definitely adds new layers of intrigue and complexity to the overall story. This coupled with us moving into Book 4 with the Goddess of War, a new Goddess of Wrath, and the previously unknown God of Tides plus with this world on the brink of war has me almost speechless with my anticipation of what’s to come.
Parker is a brilliant writer and a complete mastermind with the way she has woven the current and past lives of these characters together. If you’re looking for a new immersive fantasy world with epic world building, definitely add The Fates Entwined series to your TBR!
Thank you so much to Parker A. Garner for the gifted ARC! 💙✨ • • • Also, Corla’s mantra throughout this book became, “This will not break me.”, and I think I highlighted it in my kindle every single time she thought/said it. That just might have to be tattooed on my body sometime in the near future. 🫶🏼✨
"Prepare yourself, Goddess of War and Queen of Shadows. The storm is coming to claim you."
An absolute banger once again by Parker! I love when the plot really starts unfolding - I was hooked from start to finish!
My hate for Lycaster probably tripled this book - but I love a good villain I can hate. I love all the flashback and moments of Leyenda/Corla slowly piecing together her past and these feelings she knows but doesn't quite understand, especially when trusting Lycaster and his group of followers.
Heronnnnnn okay baby I see you!!! The slow build, the tension, the warm fuzzy feelings we haven't quite figured out.... yeahhh I love that. I am obsessed with his steady presence and won't back down to protect her energy. Very golden retriever - a perfect addition to the black cat energy of Ramsi! I'm really looking forward to seeing what develops.
Corla & Ramsi - obviously ship forever I love that we finally got our reunion and it was everything and more! *okay but also honorable mention of the spicy scene of the queen and rhea *smirky face
Laural is a badass and I am proud of her strength this book! Honestly both of the FMC's really coming into their power and strength after being beaten down and caged was a high point for me. I love nothing more than some feminine rage and I'm excited to see them get their vengeance with a war on the precipice. I mean two friends? Goddess of War and Wrath? LET'S GO!
This is such a top tier fantasy series, I really want to go back and do an immediate reread of book one after this. I think Parkers writing is really brilliant! I love when all the books have such hidden pieces you could read and reread a million times and see more breadcrumbs and tidbits and enjoyment again and again.
This. Will. Not. Break. Me <--- tattoo worthy line
ARC
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
I got a hold of this beauty early from Parker herself, when I applied to be a part of her arc team.
Ok I was so scared reading this because well the last two books of this series have had me shooketh and needing the next book. But also I wasn't sure where we would be starting.
Corla is perfection. I love that she refuses to be broken when she's had every reason throughout this series. Ramsi is still the best and I love his love for her. I was a bit surprised about a few other characters. If you are still reading this even after I've marked it as a spoiler you deserve this spoiler 😂😂
Ok Heron, I see you. I'm curious about how this is all going to pan out and what kind of book this series is turning into 👀
Laurel made some decisions that were no worse than the other gods that betrayed Corla and Ramsi but I think she went through enough and I'm excited to see where her story will go.
Rhea just strolling around dropping some one liners and bouncing has me so intrigued. I need to know what ole girl has planned as well.
I will forever hate Lysander. He's literally the worst and if he doesn't have a horrible and drawn out ending in the future books I'll rage. This goes for the Queen as well.
The big reveal I thought was going somewhere else but I am pretty happy about how it wrapped up in this one.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
I didn’t have the time to finish this book as quickly as I wanted to…however, Parker has done it again, and you’d think she’s the Taylor Swift of dark romantasy the way she’s been dropping Easter eggs and plot twists. I’ve been sitting here for almost a whole day, trying to figure out how I even write this review without giving away spoilers!
Corla has gone through multiple lifetimes full of sacrifice and sorrow, and so it’s no surprise that she’s finally hit her vengeance era. Your Path is Vengeance weaves pieces of Corla’s past and present suffering that would break just about anyone, into a captivating story full of incredible character development and growth in divine femininity. In this lifetime, Corla returns as a Goddess named Leyenda, The Goddess of War, created by Lycaster as his “perfect mate.” The first half of the book had me sooooo angry. I hate Lycaster’s guts even more than I did before, and I didn’t even think that was possible. Parker expertly captured the physical abuse and emotional manipulation of an abusive partner, and I can only hope for a satisfying ending for Lycaster. That being said, the ending of this book had me sitting on the edge of my seat, wishing there were more pages to read!
Ps: If you’re wondering about Ramsi- he’s still just as wonderful, and the chemistry between him and Corla is still just as 🌶️🌶️🌶️ but I can’t keep writing this review without spoiling anything for you so I’m going to leave it at this 😉
And as the title promises… vengeance is the name of the game for Corla.
Lost across lifetimes, torn away from Ramsi, and held against her will—this goddess has reached her breaking point. And now? She’s done waiting. It’s time to take back her power and set the world to rights.
But before she can claim what’s hers, Corla has to rediscover who she truly is…Fates willing (if you know - you know!) and just how far she’s willing to go for revenge, love, and destiny. This story is packed with raw emotion, divine power, and a heroine who refuses to stay broken. Watching Corla rise, piece by piece, is equal parts heartbreaking and empowering—and her connection to Ramsi adds that extra layer of intensity that keeps you hooked.
I am beyond ecstatic to dive back into the world Parker has created—this universe just keeps expanding in the best way.
And can we take a moment to hail the Goddess of Wrath? Because I am READY. I cannot wait to see what she brings to the table… and who she destroys along the way.
This is shaping up to be an epic tale of female power—of rage, resilience, and women who refuse to be silenced or controlled.
4.75⭐️ Thank you to Parker A. Garner and MTMC Tours for an ARC of this book. The emotional roller coaster this book took me on!! Vengeance picks up pretty much right where Sorrow left off, but now with a greater understanding due to Sacrifice. I pretty much spent the first half of the book yelling in my head 😆 I had to keep repeating Corla’s “This will not break me”, because man does Lycaster suck… I’m seriously obsessed with books that take me for a ride and truly make me work to keep up with the twists and details and this absolutely delivered! It is heart wrenching, but empowering. A story of fighting for truth, love, and for what is right. It’s a twisting of fates and a lesson in not letting life’s struggles dictate who you choose to be. I had many questions answered, but have many more new ones. I cannot wait to see where the next book takes us, ESPECIALLY with that relationship twist near the end! Well done!
CORLA IS BACK!!!! Yes, this is the third book in the series and after consuming the first two books, I was ready for this one.
Your Path is Sorrow and Your Path is Sacrifice were so good and this one falls right in line. The Fates Entwined series has had me in a choke hold since book one. One thing's for certain, if I don't get physical copies of these books on my bookshelf, I wont not be complete.
Characters like Corla, Laurel, Ezra and Lycaster were so well written. My heart broke often for Laurel and all that she endured. I feel like I learned so much about Corla with every book. Her journey and growth were amazing to read. It really pulled me in, because I wanted to continue to learn more and more about her.
You know a book is very well written when you literally despise a character (Lycaster). This was 100% a five star read for me, and I recommend everybody read this entire series.
Hello, people! Today I come with a series that will amaze its readers. It is the series The Fates Entwined. In the third book in the series, Your Path is Vengeance, the author manages to captivate and enchant her readers even more. I feel that her pen is magical and captivating. While reading, I felt like I was there, next to Corla, and I often asked for revenge for the characters who only knew how to do well was attack and try to harm Corla and more. At the same time, I saw myself crying and laughing. I know, contradictory feelings, but the syng is very good and strong at this. Her writing is fantastic, dark, powerful, torrential, fast-paced, stormy, emotional, shocking and terrifyingly wonderful. Read the series and I can't wait to see the sequel!
Many thanks to the author and MTMC Book Tours for the eARC!
First of all, thank you Parker for trusting me with an eARC of this story. This review is given freely and is my own opinion.
Should I have re-read books 1&2 before picking this up? Yes. Did I still enjoy it? Also yes.
This book weaves together details and little bread crumbs from the first two books and ties everything together so magically at the end all you can say is “wow.”
While, I was confused for the first half (MY OWN FAULT), I was eventually sucked right back into this world and reminded of why I fell in love with this series in the first place.
I will now be re-reading all three books before the next one comes out, because this series deserves it.
I’m so proud of Parker and how much of her heart she puts into all of her work, but especially this series. She is creating something truly special. ❤️
The third installment of “The Fates Entwined” deepens the emotional stakes of the series, weaving together past and present lives with haunting intensity. The journey across lifetimes in search of her soulmate as memories surface in fragments that reshape everything that Corla thought she knew about love and fate. The darker elements—captivity, control, and the lingering trauma of being caged by someone obsessed with possession—add a raw, unsettling edge that raises the stakes significantly. This is a story about reclaiming power, redefining love, and choosing one’s path despite the weight of eternity. Parker A. Garner has written a hauntingly beautiful love story that I cannot get enough of. I am anxious to continue Corla and Ramsi’s love story.
You thought the twists were over? Think again! Parker A. Garner has stumped me once again. I am still reeling from this book. Especially the ending! I fear I will have a whole series reread in my future with this information in mind.
Corla has once again proven her ability to triumph over impossible odds. That’s one thing no one can ever take from her! Looking at you Lycaster…I like how emphasized it was that Corla had the power to save herself. There was no knight in shining armor to swoop in and I loved that. (Not that Ramsi wouldn’t swoop in if he could have)
The lore is deep. The plot keeps twisting. I have no idea what comes next and I can’t wait to find out! I highly recommend this series!
I'm going to need a lot more Laurel in book 4, please and thank you.
This one started out slow; there was a lot of build up to get the characters settled into the time and story lines. The multiple points of view really paid off though. Since all of the characters are established, it wasn't disorienting jumping from one story to another.
This book did feel like groundwork for a crazy ride in sequels. Not a lot of action, more background introduced, a whole lot of character development. Definitely the calm before the storm.
I'm very much looking forward to what Parker puts out next, I've yet to be disappointed.
Favorite Quote: “They tried to burn me to ashes, and I rose from them not as a pile of charred bones, but as an entity of flame and shadows.”
Review: The way I devoured this book should honestly be illegal. Watching Corla step into her redemption arc was everything and after everything she’s endured, seeing her rise on the other side as the absolute bada** she is felt gratifying.
And Laurel? Hands down one of the most fiercely loyal heroines ever written. I’m already rooting for her to get the revenge she deserves in the next book.
Overall, this story delivers epic adventure, powerful growth, and a deeply satisfying sense of hope and redemption.
From the moment I finished this book, I was at a loss for words. How do I describe how amazing this book is?? I truly felt like I was on this self-discovery journey with Corla. Parker’s writing allows you to be immersed in these realms and you truly care for these characters. While also despising and hating one character (yup, looking at you Lycaster) I liked Your Path to Sorrow and Your Path to Sacrifice but I loved Your Path of Vengeance! Now I need the next book, ASAP!
Thank you Parker for allowing me to read and review your book. I received this book as an ARC for an honest review.
I was so confused with the events of "Your Path is Sacrifice" (book 2), so I was wary of "Vengeance" going in. It was okay. Things still bounced around too much for me, and it's kind of unclear what the actual point of the story is. I'm not sure where it's going or what the central conflict truly is. Corla was compelling and definitely went through some self discovery. The twist at the end was interesting.
**Thank you to the Author & MTMC Tours for the ARC; all opinions are my own.**
4 ⭐️ 2.5 🌶
Your Path is Vengeance is the 3rd installment in this series (for some reason I thought it was the last book, so my feelings are a bit skewed 🥲). Like the first two books, this one is heavy and dark, but it also has glimmers of hope peaking through. I had some of my questions answered, and many more asked. Corla continues to be a badass, and I am happy she is finally "home".
Cut my life into pieces. PARKER! This series might actually make my heart stop because WHAT?! Its not even fair to have to continue to wait for this story to continue. I don't want to spoil anything but Corla is a top tier FMC. Ramsi... dear lort..and Heron..sir I see you. Warning you might cry, you might rage, you might just LOVE this book. No notes Parker..no notes.
This series is one that never fails to make me really think, in the best way.
It took me longer to get through this book than the first two purely because I was trying to figure out how the FMC’s all connected, if they even did at all. Theories were constantly running through my head, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with a story that really makes you think. The first two were so different from each other that it was easier to get through them as different stories, but this one had me rattling my brain with what if’s constantly. If I had to give a visual for what was going on inside my mind while I was reading, it’s very much Charlie Day with his red string cork-board. How does everything connect and where and why?! It got to a point I even reached out to Parker asking if questions would be answered or if there were going to be more books because I was driving myself crazy ha! Corla wakes up and is told that she is Leyenda, and is set to marry Lycaster – and do not even get me started on him. Some how he gets worse and worse with every book, and Parker does it so well! The red herrings in this story really had me questioning things, but a few of those were mostly sorted out. Once Corla started figuring things out, and remembering what a bad ass she is, ugh! I adore bad ass Corla! She’s my favorite. Her time with Lycaster was easily not my favorite, but was also absolutely necessary for her story. So it’s one of those things that if we didn’t have it, it would be greatly missed. What Parker has done with this series is unreal, and absolutely phenomenal. I’m always on the edge of my seat, and I can’t wait to see where she takes it from here.
Have you ever found an author whose work grabs hold of your heart and refuses to let go? Whose words burrow under your skin? Who writes about characters who have survived trauma and who will keep surviving, even when doing so feels impossible?
I didn't expect to see myself in Corla, but I did. An I am infinitely grateful for Parker's books. For Corla. For her tenacity and her strength and her will to live. Each book in the Fates Entwined series takes us further into Corla's world--a world of fated mates, gods and goddesses, politics, revenge, sorrow, and triumph. By the end of YOUR PATH IS VENGEANCE, I was just praying it wasn't the last book and thankful it isn't.
This series is so well-written and filled with such depth of characters, of the world-building, of the lore. And the romance! Oh my god, can we talk about the swooniness of Ramsi and his bond with Corla? You'll laugh and swoon and rage and cry and come back for more.
