Midnight Mayhem has returned ...
In Fury Lies Mischief is the second book in Amo’s standalone series Midnight Mayhem. And where In Peace Lies Havoc brought you your first taste of this decadent traveling stunt show. In Fury Lies Mischief brings you the illusions and sins.Let's go to the review
❖
She was everything that I wanted.
He was everything that I despised.
Until she wasn’t.
Until he wasn’t.
Killian Cornellii was a walking calamity. He reached inside of me and touched every single inch of my ruined soul, but he didn’t just touch it. He caressed, petted, and captivated it. He tailored me to fit into the palm of his hands. The same hands that possess so much cruelty, were the very same that comforted me.
I thought I knew him.
He thought he knew me.
This isn’t a fairy tale or some achingly beautiful story about two soul mates who instantly fall irrevocably in love with each other.
This is a story about a love so painful, so rich, that it destroys everything and everyone around it.
Including ourselves.
Midnight Mayhem is the platform to which Killian performs his tricks on, but the greatest trick wouldn’t come from him.
It would come from me.
Tricksters don’t have hearts.
They just pretend that they do.
Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.
❖
"Do villains have hearts, baby?"
The beauty of Saskia was placed on this earth specifically from God to taunt me for all my wrongdoings. Only Saskia isn't from heaven. No, Saskia isn't sent from God. That kind of beauty is crafted from evil.No one writes strong, resilient heroines quite like Amo Jones does. Despite the real vulnerabilities and flaws her heroines share that make them human just like the rest of us, she also shows just how strong one can be. That despite living through difficult times in one's life, one can always find strength and resiliency in themselves and those around them that support them. Sass is the epitome of strength and resiliency. I was utter awe of her. And damn is she doesn’t give Killian a run for his money! Saskia turned out to be the biggest mystery and I loved to peel off all of her layers. She’s a mix of vulnerability and power. She’s both delicate and tough, innocent and deadly. She keeps her walls up and her heart guarded but also cares deeply for the ones close to her.
"When I was ten years old, I told the world to go fuck themselves."I mean what better way to introduce Killian than with this line. It's literally the first line of his chapter and I couldn't help but laugh when I read it. Kill is literally the definition of hot and cold. One day he's sweet and wants to be with Sass but than the next moment he wants enough distance between them and would spit out cruel words just for her to keep away from him. Killian is a guy who instantly makes you obsessed with him. Like some kind of drug, he lures you with his undeniable charm, flirting and promise of a good time just to switch his personality to an intense, dangerous and cruel bastard. But he’s so addictive that you’ll let him fool you every time. You’ll allow him to caress and daze you just so he can bite you and steal a part of your soul.
Rating: ★★★ ★ ☆“What, so the two villains in each other’s story won’t get a happily ever after?” I joke, winking down at her.
She smiles softly. “I guess the story is still being written.”
Overall, this story was hands-down magnificent. The sexy and fiery banter, the passion, the deep love and loyalty within the brothers and sisters of Kiznitch, the fantastic playlist I read along with, the sensual and mystical vibe of Midnight Mayhem itself and the dark and hidden secrets of this world we are only just learning about took my breath away. This book ticked so many boxes, from the enemies to lovers, to the nail-biting stunts, to the hot filthy sex, the twists and turns, the dark and grit went hand in hand, these two were perfect for each other. Unique, Unputdownable, Utterly addictive!! Amo Jones set up the stage perfectly
