About this listen
From a number one New York Times best-selling author comes a sizzling, sweepingly romantic story filled with dangerous secrets, evil twins, and powerful magic.
One sister.
Two sinful princes.
Infinite deception with a side of revenge.... Welcome to Hell.
After selling her soul to become queen of the Wicked, Emilia travels to the Seven Circles with the enigmatic prince of Wrath, where she's introduced to a seductive world of vice.
She vows to do whatever it takes to avenge her beloved sister, Vittoria...even if that means accepting the hand of the prince of Pride, the king of demons.
The first rule in the court of the Wicked? Trust no one. With back-stabbing princes, luxurious palaces, mysterious party invitations, and conflicting clues about who really killed her twin, Emilia finds herself more alone than ever before. Can she even trust Wrath, her onetime ally in the mortal world...or is he keeping dangerous secrets about his true nature?
Emilia will be tested in every way as she seeks a series of magical objects that will unlock the clues of her past and the answers she craves....

In exchange for his help, he asks for three kisses, to be given at the time and place of his choosing.

Just hours after humans are born, the gods take what little power we have. In return, they protect our borders from the vicious, merciless fae. The humans who manage to keep their power are known as the corrupt. And they are burned. When my forbidden power is discovered, I’m forced to flee my tiny village and the life I adore. To survive, I make a desperate bargain with the mercenary who abandoned me at my weakest moment. Our deal is simple: I’ll help him and his mysterious friends sneak into the city, and he’ll help me learn to wield the strange, dark power I’ve always kept hidden.

My whole world changed when I stepped inside the academy. Nothing is right about this place or the other students in it. Here I am, a mere mortal among gods...or monsters. I still can't decide which of these warring factions I belong to, if I belong at all. I only know the one thing that unites them is their hatred of me. Then there's Jaxon Vega. A vampire with deadly secrets who hasn't felt anything for a hundred years. But there's something about him that calls to me, something broken in him that somehow fits with what's broken in me. Which could spell death for us all.

In exchange for his help, he asks for three kisses, to be given at the time and place of his choosing.

Fantastic !!!!

In this book, you get more of a look in to the 7 circles and how things in the underworld work. I enjoyed the world building and well thoughout descriptions of the places Emilia and Wrath visited. While the people on the surface talk about it with negativity, Kerri made it sound like a brutal but beautiful place.
I loved seeing Wrath and Emilia get closer. Things definitely heated up between them but their banter is something I live for. While Wrath is still closed off due to things he can’t say he tries to help Emilia in any way he can. It’s not always obvious but when she realizes what he’s done for her it’s a beautiful realization.
We get a bunch of answers to questions we were left with from book one, only to have the rug ripped out from under us. Leaving us with even more questions and the need to know how it ends. Kerri is an amazing story tell her and I can’t wait to see how Wrath and Emilia’s story wraps up in the last book.

I love the way at the end she comes to accept Wrath. And that she didn't panic at the end when Wrath didn't immediately answer. And then she went on to state all of her feelings clearly and in full.
I can't wait for the next part.
Loved it!
