Gild by Raven KennedyMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I thoroughly enjoyed the first book in this series; I was constantly on edge wondering what would happen next. My heart ached for Auren, as she was kept alone and didn’t get to interact with anyone. She was a trophy, not able to roam free. She appreciated the small things, like fresh air and she was also kind. I liked that she made some friendships, but it wasn’t going to be easy.
I really did not like King Midas, he was cold and cunning and was using Auren for his own purpose. He was possessive of her and didn't allow her any freedoms.
There were plenty of twists and turns and each one kept me hooked. I devoured this read and jumped into the second book immediately!

Series: The Plated Prisoner #1
Genre: Fantasy Romance
Published: October 16, 2020
The fae abandoned this world to us. And the ones with power rule.
Gold.
Gold floors, gold walls, gold furniture, gold clothes. In Highbell, in the castle built into the frozen mountains, everything is made of gold.
Even me.
King Midas rescued me. Dug me out of the slums and placed me on a pedestal. I’m called his precious. His favored. I’m the woman he Gold-Touched to show everyone that I belong to him. To show how powerful he is. He gave me protection, and I gave him my heart. And even though I don’t leave the confines of the palace, I’m safe.
Until war comes to the kingdom and a deal is struck.
Suddenly, my trust is broken. My love is challenged. And I realize that everything I thought I knew about Midas might be wrong.
Because these bars I’m kept in, no matter how gilded, are still just a cage. But the monsters on the other side might make me wish I’d never left.
The myth of King Midas reimagined. This compelling adult fantasy series is as addictive as it is unexpected. With romance, intrigue, and danger, the gilded world of Orea will grip you from the very first page.
