5.0 out of 5 stars Some of the BEST banter!!!
The media could not be loaded. Reckless by Lauren RobertsMy Book Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Spoiler Free Review: This is some of the best banter I’ve found in the romantasy genre! If you were a fan of Powerless, you’ll likely love this second book. I felt the world building and storyline were a bit lacking in this one. Some aspects became repetitive, like with characters escaping, being captured, escaping, captured... But honestly, I didn’t come here for an SJM Throne of Glass, seven book epic. The details and world building never felt lacking, they just aren’t the main plot focus. The pacing kept things moving along nicely. Lauren sucked me in with Powerless with the banter and slow burn between our two main characters. I was looking for more, and boy did she deliver.I’ve seen this book suggested alongside a lot of other books with spice. I believe Lauren has stated that she will be keeping this trilogy YA. But seriously don’t let that stop you. This was such a fun, light read!Cover/Jacket - I’m a big stickler for keeping design elements consistent over the length of a series. This hardcover jacket is beautiful and matches the design of Powerless well. Under the jacket, I actually LOVE the simplistic designs on the front hardcovers. The sword and arrow compliment each other nicely. The continuity shifts a bit on the hardcover spines. The Powerless text is noticeably larger than Reckless…ugh. Why must publishers do this to us!! Not too much of a dealbreaker as I’ll be displaying these with the jackets on. I won’t comment on the size difference with Powerful… 😅Product/Shipping: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Arrived on time in great condition.
4.0 out of 5 stars A worthy sequel
This book was nearly as powerful and intense as the first book. All of your favorite characters grappling with everything that happened in the previous book. It felt like the first book in many ways while still being its own story and moving the story of Payden, Kai and Kitt forward. Great ending reveal. It was intriguing to try and figure out how we’d get to a third book with these great characters, and I think the author does a great job of ending it in a way that’s surprising, interesting and making you want to continue to read this story.
5.0 out of 5 stars Love!
I love this entire series! Such a great book!!
5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Young Adult Romantic Fantasy
I could not be more impressed with the writing of Lauren Roberts. The imagery, the pacing, the plot, the resolution, everything about her books in the Powerless series blows me away. And she's so young! The depth of her characters and their stories and the insights into life are beautiful.Reckless is the second book in the Powerless series and it brought tears to my eyes a few times. Paedyn, our FMC, is a fugitive following the events at the end of Powerless. Now she is on the run, trying to evade the enemy she fell for during the Purging trials. This is an enemies to lovers to enemies to lovers again story. You'll have whiplash in the BEST way.Side note: regarding the romance, the Powerless Trilogy is definitely young adult with only 1 chili pepper for the first two books. Mostly slow burn with endearing and sweet intimacy that builds through forced proximity and companionship versus a physically s3xual relationship on the page. I personally LOVE some spice in my books, so the fact that I DEVOURED these and could not put them down WITHOUT there being open page spice speaks volumes to the beauty of her writing. I'm not a writer myself, obviously, so I am struggling to express the quality of Lauren Roberts writing. But the story is just beautiful.Anyways, back to the plot. Lots of action and suspense throughout the book with Paedyn nearly dying MANY times. Kai... even though he's enemy number 1 in this book, I still LOVE him. I just want to give him all the hugs for the turmoil he has experienced in his life.Tropes: Enemies-to-lovers, forced proximity, dual POVNow to the good stuff, my favorite quotes (these will be better reading than my writing above, lol):What is she without her fire fueling her? A shell of the Silver Savior she once was? The ghost of a girl I was willing to ruin myself for? If she fights for nothing she lives for death. But if she burns for something, she lives for hope.I want her to fight me.I want her to burn for me, even if it means with hatred.Funniest Forced Proximity, one-bed scene I've read. So the scene picks up after Paedyn has Kai turn around and not look while she changes."Can I turn around now?" I ask with a sigh when the bed creaks behind me."Shh, I'm trying to sleep."I spin to see her sprawled ato the quilt, the stolen gray shirt swallowing her whole. With arms and legs stretched wide, she attempts to take up as much of the bed as possible. The sight is so unexpected that I nearly choke on a laugh. "What is --""Sorry," she says, her eyes closed and lips crooked. "There's no more room on the bed.""I can see that, " I respond dryly.Home.The word stings my eyes, burns in my throat, just as the smoke had when I escaped the fiery fragments of my childhood. Each one of my homes is gone - my father, my Adena, my house on the corner of Merchant and Elm.She looks at me, shocked. And then she smiles, bright and big like the night sky hanging above us.I fear she could rival the stars.Lenny shakes his head. "You are a little cockroach, you know that?""Plagues," I snort. "You really know what a girl wants to hear, don't you?""No, I mean, I'm convinced you can survive anything.""Yeah, well, I'm convinced that becoming a curse," I say quietly."UGH. ALL of page 189.But here's a little..."I don't regret it." His words are a rush, a confession he's clung to. "I don't regret you, or what was between us. And I don't regret kissing you on that roof. But I know I'll regret what I have to do to you for the rest of my life."... "Do you regret it?" he asks, voice urgent...."I..." My hands find his arms, cupping his wrists. "I regret not doing it right. And I regret not being what I'm supposed to be.".... several sentences laterDeath emboldens. The end initiates...."Pretend," I whisper against his lips.I am recklessness incarnet. Until the very end.His next words mirror the ones whispered after placing me atop his feet to dance beside the firelight. "Let me swim for the both of us." -#swoonOut here I am Kai and nothing more." His throat bobs. "Out here I am powerless. A monster without an ability to hide behind. An Enforcer free from his masks.

LOVE this book!😩
This book 😭 I loved every single part of it. The feelings I went through while reading it can’t even be described.I gave this book 5/5⭐️ when it deserves so much more. It needs its own scale. No, there’s not even a scale big enough to fit this book.Reckless starts off where Powerless ended and has a cliffhanger ending, you get to follow Kai and Paedyn as she has to face being on the run from the man she now is supposed to hate and Kai in search of the woman who killed his father forcing his brother to now take the throne. But it’s never that easy is it? B cause Paedyn isn’t about to come back willingly knowing her life is at stake and all she sees is Adenas death.The way it ended was exactly how I predicted it when I read the book but it didn’t make it any less good, no it made it even better cause I got that “HAH! I was right!” Feeling. This book had my heart growing two sizes and clenching with sorrow. It’s a masterpiece that should forever be remembered for the art it is. Thank you Lauren for this amazing book.Though it didn’t make me cry like the last book it still holds many memories and Pae and Kai will keep standing as one of my favorite couples. I need to know how this goes cause poor Kai needs his happy ending! I much this book sadly doesn’t, thought you’d finally get the HEA? Sorry to disappoint and say you won’t. But their story is beautiful and if you loved powerless and powerful you’ll absolutely love this book too.Again, thank you Lauren. You’re amazing.
I LOVE IT!
