.... The Blurb ....
The Devil comes with baggage, and not the kind you can lose. I was two years old when he saved me. I didn’t understand much at that age, but I remember the pale boy with hair as dark as ink, saving me from two evils. He said he would protect me; I just didn’t know he meant from himself. I was raised in the arms of evil, tailored for the Devil like a custom Armani suit, and every day he wore it like a weapon. Brantley thought by keeping me locked in his manor that it would protect me, and it did.
Until it didn’t.
As I slowly adapt to The Elite Kings Club and the dark, sinister world that exists around the outlaws in suits, I come to learn that the monster everyone fears is the very same one I crave.
Like a prized trophy, I sit on his throne…
Something quite pretty, an object he owns…
She’s a porcelain doll, so shiny, so clean…
Something I want to polish, but to never be seen…
The time has come, I am in his world…
Now his Dea, can be admired by all…
The thing with porcelain is it’s fragile and delicate…
It would only take a second for me to eradicate it…
.... My Thoughts ...
In Short
- Amo Jones blows my mind again
I still couldn't get enough of Brantley
- The ending ....
In Long
If you are reading SANCTE DIABOLI then by now you know fully what to expect from this series and you are probably going to feel exactly the same as me when I first started to read it and be fully expecting to finish it feeling an array of emotions. I knew this would be the case, so how did Amo still manage to blow my mind?
I have always wanted more from Brantley, I never felt I saw enough from him in the other books and whatever he showed up previously I never got my 'fix' of him. The excitement when I found out about this book was massive and the expectations came with that. With expectations often comes some nerves for me, nervous that it won't live up to my expectations.
Oh my god, it did. It went beyond.
Brantley is a rollercoaster ride, one with huge slopes and many blind turns that you just can't see. I felt this book offered what I really hoped it would, an inside in to his life and mind while also keeping his mysterious ways which makes him so addictive.
Saint is just perfect for the story, she fits in so unbelievably well and I loved her caring nature. She may not have had much of a life but it's very realistic about how she knows what she does and I felt that was an important touch. She is also far from stupid and knows her own mind which I liked.
The story line is .. it's ... It's Amo Jones as we know her. It's addictive, explosive and just damn perfect.
I am always left craving more with Amo and this is no different, I spent days after thinking over this book, what did I miss. I very rarely re read books but I have already re read this story once and I most definitely will again. There is so much to the story, so many different branches and all as damn right thrilling.
I don't want to give too much away but I think this one is up there with my favourite... . They are all my favourite.
Final Thoughts
Lived up to every expectation, every single page. Amo Jones, you are a genius and I need more, asap please!
