My rating: 💋💋💋💋

My name is Rex Cain…but you can call me god.

I am the ruler of the Cain empire—a legacy built from the blood and bone of others. Here in my kingdom, only the strongest survive, and only the wicked can thrive.

That’s why I took my father’s life before he had a chance to take mine. But my life doesn’t flow through my veins. It flows through hers, the girl he tried to take from me. The woman I’ve stained my hands in blood for.

My most prized possession.
My weakness.
My butterfly.

She thinks I’m her savior, and I’ll burn kingdoms to the ground to keep it that way.

While she waits for me on her knees, I’m a king who reigns without mercy. While she obeys my every command, I’m a dictator who starts wars. And while she breathes, I’m a man with something to lose.

My name is Rex Cain, and she is my Hope.

❉ Authors Note: Cruel God is a dark romance not intended for sensitive readers. If you’re looking for a romance with a hero who has redeemable qualities and a strong heroine who rises from the ashes, then this book is not for you. Cruel God is a standalone romance with a happily-ever-after ending for flawed and broken characters. But if you expect a HEA with declarations of love topped with unicorns and rainbows, then again…this book is not for you.

Review :

Rex Cain is here! Damn, I have been waiting for this man for a very very long time. The book was as crazy as I expected it to be. There were so many freaking triggers and lots of wtf moments but the book definitely kept me hooked till the very end.

Rex is what you would call the master of games. There is nothing the man does not know or cannot interpret. Crossing him would be a crime worse than death and there is only person who sees him for more than the monster he is. But his past makes him more twisted than anyone and now his little butterfly is stuck with him. She won't be going anywhere until he is done with her and there is no way he will let anyone take her from him. He will kill that person. Even if that person was her own brother.

Okkkk. So this book was a huge dose of crazy for me. I am warning you guys, if you like a strong heroine who fights back and a hero who eventually realises the error of his ways, DO NOT READ THIS BOOK. The hero in this book was crazy but that didn't surprise me as much as the craziness the heroine of this book had!! It was just… I have no words lol. They both are and perfect for each other and I pity anyone who comes in their way.

Definitely recommending this book to all the dark romance loving people out there. This one has a lot of triggers like Kidnapping, S and M, crazy hero and so much more!
