My Renegade: MM Dark Romance (Runaways Book 2)

"He was blindfolded, yet he could see me. Clearer than anyone else. How? When I'd worked so hard to shield myself from everyone, how could he still get through? Why did I want him to?" "He was beautiful. More so than I ever could have anticipated. He was flawless. Elegant. Regal. A prince." "His arms felt so safe, like something I'd never experienced before but had always been missing. He felt like home. It was easier to breathe when he held me. His presence was my ventilator." "These are the only tears you should shed. Tears of pleasure." "No one's gonna hurt you ever again. I'll worship you more than a priest to his god. You're my prince. I'll be your knight when you need protection, your soilder when you need to fight, your clown when you need to laugh, your chef when you need to eat, your dog, your submissive, your willing slave. I'll be everythin' you need me to be." "He was a vision. A perfect angel. A prince. A god. I was in awe of him. How did I ever get this lucky." "Benny was light. He was color. He was music. He was good." "He deserved to be loved in the sun, with someone as bright and warm as him. I loved him. I loved him more than I'd ever loved anyone. It was too big a feeling for a creature like me." OMG, this was such a phenomenal and amazing follow-up to My Revenant! I have been waiting for this to come out, and boy was the wait worth it! I really love the writing style and flow from this author. This author really knows how to get your emotions…

I've been very excited to read this book ever since the first book in this series was released! I highly recommend reading that one before reading this one, trust me, you'll love both books! I'll be honest, it took me a bit to get into this story but I think that was because I couldn't connect with Harper's character at first. In the beginning he came off as aloof, gruff, and quite cold towards Benny. As the story went on though I was able to learn more about him and got to see a different side of him as he opened up more and more to Benny. So, once that happened and once I got to see his character grow some, I ended up enjoying the story more. I also really liked being able to get a different perspective of the Runaways, or the 'Strays', I thought it was cool seeing how that came to be from the snake prince's perspective. I will say that I wasn't a huge fan of how spice heavy this book was, there was a LOT of spicy scenes throughout the story and I just didn't think all of them needed to be included for the story to still be great. But!! That is just my opinion, and even though I don't love steam heavy books, I still very much enjoyed reading about these characters finding love and connection outside of their playroom. Overall, a good book, and I'm very curious about the other Strays, I cannot wait for their books!!

I loved My Revenant! But My Renegade surpassed that. Everything about this book was so freaking good! Can read Ronan Marlow’s books over and over and never get bored.
