Torn ( Selfish Myths book 2)
By Natalia Jaster
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Breaking her heart is the key to my power—or my downfall.
For centuries, I've reigned as the God of Anger. Now I’m an exiled rebel. Banished from my immortal world and jilted by the love I can't forget, I prowl the human realm with a shattered soul.
That’s when I meet her.
For the life of me, I can't understand why I’m so drawn to this starry-eyed misfit called Merry. She's an outcast like me, but she’s different from anyone I’ve ever known.
And she's hiding just as many forbidden secrets as I am.
As a revolution simmers between celestial renegades and ancient rulers, I discover that Merry’s the key to my retribution. According to a dangerous legend, she alone can help me resurrect my power, reclaim my place among the magical elite—and mend my broken heart.
The price: I have to break hers in return.
This is such a unique series. I don’t think ive read anything like it before. This is following Angers story after Love becomes mortal and it’s just written in a way that’s magical reading it. I really love how these myths/gods/goddesses we know as emotions love a life of their own. The only thing that stopped it being 5 stars was in places it was possibly a bit long winded ( but only a bit).

Some of my favorite things are fairy tales and cop shows and Grimm finds such a perfect balance between the two that I stood no chance at all but to fall instantly in love.
And the fact that they take not only from fairy tales but from myths from all over the world just help to set the show apart.

If you love the Greek myths then you will not be able to forget this book! Not really suitable for younger readers but it isn't as graphic or sexual as other books I read when I was younger.
