The Revenant Series (Books 1 & 2) by Brittany Tucker

First Line:

Cam had done many things and worn many names, but never had he thought he'd become an old man's bloody paper pusher.

Summary:

Camden is looking for revenge, and when death spits him out, he takes it as a sign.

Annie is desperate to get away from her abusive father and the stench of death.

The two of them form an unlikely alliance to chase their freedom, and along the way, they grow closer to each other.

My Review: NO SPOILERS

Adventurous, tense, and dark

What a unique plot storyline! I thought the concept of Revenants and the way the Rot was handled in this book was so cool! I really enjoyed the concept and the way the story progressed.

Cam and Annie’s dynamic was unexpected, but also really enjoyable! They made a good team, both being an inside man and woman duo. I also loved their backgrounds!

The story was slow to start for me, and kind of dragged through the last 20%, but overall I really enjoyed reading this book! Great work, and I can’t wait to read the sequel!

First Line:

Annie's stomach rolled with The Elaina.

Summary:

Camden is done running, and Annie will follow him into the depths.

Camden is ready to face the father and the home he left a long time ago. With Annie's freedom secured and their strange bond growing, they face Enoch's intense political figures together.

Unless the Order makes them their next targets.

My Review: NO SPOILERS

An entertaining, emotional, and rewarding read

Cam and Annie are such a powerful duo, and amazing individual characters! Was there a lot of back and forth between them? Absolutely, but sticking it out is worth it.

I enjoyed the plot of this book for about 30%, and then I lost interest. To be perfectly honest, I stuck it out for Cam and Annie, and I enjoyed where their story left. Their support of each other and their push and pull relationship made sense with both of their histories.

Overall, an enjoyable read!

Thank you so much for choosing me as an ARC reader!

It had been a long day, but Annie was sleeping only a few feet away, and the sounds of her soft breathing were the most beautiful he'd ever heard.
