Broken Phoenix (Wicked Island)

Wow, I enjoy dark books and boy does this tick the boxes. If you read TW as a list of things you want to see in a book then this is for you.Our FMC Nyx, has had some real bad luck in life but has a core of steel and is streetwise. She’s surrounded in mystery, no clue as why she’s on the island as yet, hoping we find out more in the next book.The guard Jayce is another mystery, why is he on the island and what is he really there for? I have so many unanswered questions after reading this dark but brilliant story.The birds are all psychos, even Falcon who is my favourite. The stuff she has to endure being in their team is both physical and psychological torment.That cliffhanger tho, it’s left me desperately wanting the next book, what will happen to Nyx.

This book really did pull me in and kept me interested. So many questions need answering. I need the next book. I love the concept and dynamic.

This book is a lot darker than the usual "dark" romances. There is a lot of degradation, violence, unaliving and t0rtur#, as well as a number of triggers.Having said all that, if you are someone who thrives in the shadows and likes their books the darkest shade of black then this absolute cracker is for you! I loved it. Loved it. I love Nyx, I am gutted for her and her past. And I have not been so angry and upset with a potential harem since pack Darling - in fact they are worse than the wyverns. There is a huge cliffy, but it's worth every second of it and every penny!!!Enjoy x

The is a story of violence, degradation and greed. Nyx is a jewel thief and a very good one at that. But that is until she is betrayed by her Long -term friend. She is jailed for her crimes but soon finds herself gassed and tied up in an aeroplane. A back pack is attached to her body and she finds herself falling from the plane and landing on an island. She soon learns that this is a prison island with many groups who either want to keep you or kill you. She has to suffer degradation in order to survive but she will become stronger and then get her revenge. Hot read.

Glad to have found this. Very dark story. Complex, great characters. Storyline uses the 'prison' Island angle - where extremely bad people (psychopaths, serial murderers, crazies, etc) are dumped. Similarities with Lord of the Flies. We have a sassy woman who is trying to survive. Lots of manipulation on different levels. The inmates want to survive, find any slice of entertainment. The strongest survive. Cannot wait for the next book.

well, I certainly didn’t expect this story. its very well written. the plot is so far fetched but movie worthy, and the characters, are insane lol now skipping off dor book two ciao

Nicollet/Nyx but I think we should just call her Nicollet... There is nothing bad*** about this heroine.I'm not a fan of prison stories anyway but this one is on steroids. Read the trigger warnings but essentially if you are into degradation this one is for you.I kept reading thinking we were getting to the meaty plot but the MMCs behaviour nipped that in the bud for me. The men are all meant to be Alphas, a few screws loose but still able to hold their own, yet they just watch all sorts happen to Nicollet. Raven is running the show here, the others are just props. Come to think of it, it's all a set up for smut scenes.I just didn't care enough to keep reading. The untreated injuries were just a joke, a bed of nails and he just pulls them out and gets on with his day?? Nope.

I couldn't get through this book fast enough, wanting to know what happens next and then... That ending *face palm*. Pleas say the next one is out soon!
