Publisher's summary

When vengeance strikes....

You don’t know me, but I know you.

I’m the shadow that creeps behind you without notice.

The moment you see me, you’re dead.

An assassin. A killer. A nobody.

Until I became somebody.

I’ll make everyone who reduced me to a shadow pay.

To do that, I’m willing to risk everything. 

Everything except for my reluctant wife.

Rai Sokolov can show me her worst, but this will only end when death does us part.

The road to the throne is paved with loss, betrayal, and blood baths.

To win, we go all in.

Our lives included.

Throne of Vengeance is the conclusion of the Throne Duet and cannot be listened to on its own.

SPECTACULAR STORYTELLING.. & 5 STAR NARRATION ❤️

I was so looking forward to this second book in the Throne duet.. especially after the cliffhanger ending that ended the first one, and wow Kyle and Rai’s mental, physical, emotional and political games spectacularly continues here. Anger boils, blood will flow, betrayal will happen, enemies will surface and a tragic backstory will be revealed.. and through it all their trust in one another, their loyalty to each other and their love for the other will be tested. There’s an insane amount of combustible sizzles between them.. but there’s a war of revenge and survival.. so there will be tears, torture, traitors, temptations and truths too. It’s fantastic, it’s action-packed, it’s hot, it’s suspenseful and the drama between them deliciously ebbs and flows perfectly. Bravo Ms Kent.. and bravo to Shane and Vanessa too because their spectacular dual POV narration brought the cast of characters to life, they were impressively on-point with the various accents and genders and their tempo and nuances made this friction-filled Mafia love story shine. WORTH A CREDIT? Oh boy, absolutely 100% yes.

On the edge

I really enjoyed this book. The sex was a little rough to get through but plot was interesting. I was not bored.

3.5 stars

I feel like I was expecting more, but I can't exactly say why. I absolutely loved the narration on the audio books for this duet, and am very interested in reading the books for the side characters throughout this series

Another mafia romance narrated beautifully by Shane and Vanessa

I love this pair of hero/heroine - Kyle and Rai - both born into the world of mafia and assassins….it was narrated excellently by Shane and Vanessa who made this book so hot and erotically charged. The plot was complex and the intimacy between both Kyle and Rai was explosively hot. I think I am addicted now to Rina Kent’s work as she weaves other main character’s such as Jonathan and Aiden King into this storyline.

Wonderful as always

I enjoyed this duet as I do all Rina Kent book. While I loved Kyle, Ry annoyed me a bit to often. Glad she finally came around. I have so many unanswered questions though. Maybe they will come out in future books. 🤔 Enjoyed it regardless. Shane and Vanessa did a fantastic job with narration!

Kyle's Vengeance

This book was great! At times, I did not find Rai very likeable but she got better. She was a very strong-willed woman who did everything, no matter what, to protect the Brotherhood. She was even willing to give up and even kill Kyle. She drugs Kyle to subdue him. Vlad beats Kyle so bad when Rai informed him of Kyle's real plans for the Russians that she overheard. Of course, Kyle had his own agenda and we find out more about him and why he is the way he is in this book. Kyle is like a dog with a bone on his mission. There is an interesting part of the story when, during an attack, the Albanians kidnap Rai and one of the guards, Alexander, who looks very feminine. They usually only kidnap women for their men to use and to break. What a surprise when Rai learns about Alexander's secret. This book put us through a lot to get to the HEA and ends with two great epilogues. Shane East and Vanessa Edwin did an awesome job with the narration.

Would have been 5 stars BUT

I'm undecided. I don't know... the pill swap and Kyles idiotic behavior drove me nuts. The the domestic bliss ending was just silly along with all the unanswered questions that were piled on at the end (why?).

Another star performance

The cliffhanger from book one set the shocking initial storyline of this part two. Rai is in control! Also, in this part more of Kyle’s history is explained, his childhood beginnings, while I found Rai more cunning. The story was delivered at a deliberate pace. The chemistry between the characters is strong and tangible, even if unwanted by Rai at time. I found the steam mildly brewing, not as hot at the expense of backstory and inner monologue. Kyle, however, is the strong alpha I enjoy, his infatuation with Rai becoming increasingly dominating. And the story unfolds.

Without words to describe the performance. The voice actors delivered a visual picture with their narration — accents, intonation, emotion. Shane East’s voice — the velvety way it sounds, simply commanding, and his range is flawless. Vanessa Edwin recited a star performance with her skills with accents and intonations. Despite not being duet narration, they definitely brought the story to life, I think better than I had read the book. Overall, great delivery on this arranged marriage, mafia story.

It was fine 🤷‍♀️

I expected to LOVE this. That's not what happened. I was quickly annoyed and then LIVID and I stayed livid. Glad she can forgive Kyle, but could never be me. Unalived immediately! They got a happy ending. Great 😐 I hate Kyle. Literally don't care what happens to him after that BS. This was a book. I read it. It's over now

One of the Best

Love this, the narration was really good- better than most! Story was good and steamy scenes were nice and steamy!!!

Great ending to the story

Great follow up full of twist and turns with a sweet and interesting ending loved it

well worth the credit

thought the narrators did a great job, really brought the story to life. its part of a duet so make sure to get both books

4.25 Stars

What an explosive end to this Throne duet. This picks up right where Throne Of Power leaves off. As such there's not a whole lot I can say except to advise that you buckle up because the twists will keep you guessing and the turns will give you whiplash. Kyle and Rai are far from out of the woods and I was more than pleased with this ending. I cannot wait to see what this author brings next because if history teaches me anything, it's that I love what she brings to the table. This very much included. The narration was A1 and Shane East is always welcome in my ears.
