About this ebook

Avenged is the conclusion to the Vanished duology, an absorbing, psychological suspense story about friendship, deception, jealousy, and love, perfect for fans of the Pretty Little Liars series and We Were Liars.

Everyone believes Beth’s death was an accident, except for Kalah. The girl she loved was stolen from her, and now Kalah’s broken heart wants revenge. In order to crack Brit’s perfect alibi, Kalah pretends to be Brit’s best friend—with the sole mission to destroy her.

Kalah knows that playing Brit’s game is deadly. One wrong move could cost someone her life, including her own…but the more lies Kalah tells, the closer she is to the twisted truth.

    This was an interesting book. I don't even know how to explain my feelings. There was a lot of frustration, disbelief, and utter lack of understanding of some of the characters behaviour and complete lack of reasoning. Mainly Olivia, she was a psychopath. Seriously, I get she had some trauma, but not enough to be so fucking insane. The plot was very fast paced, the writing was easy to follow, but I felt like something was lacking. The characters just didn't seem to have much depth, and I wasn't as into Cas and Em as I was in the last book. Overall, it was fun and basically entertaining, but also just a little too much for me.

    This is book two; Ruined was book one. This novel is to be released April 12, 2017.I absolutely loved Ruined and nominated it for the Lone Star 2017 list. Several people found it too violent to make the list--which is a valid reason. The novel begins with a fairly graphic murder scene. I thought it was great--she kills the princess, takes her place, and proceeds to the palace to marry/kill the prince in order to get revenge on the country who killed her family, the leaders of the Ruina. The end of Ruined had a great battle scene (once again, some might say a wee bit violent) where Em rescues her sister who immediately kills their enemies, the parents of the boy whom Em now loves. This novel begins with Olivia and Em together with the other Ruina and Aren. They are headed home; they want to reclaim their lands, rebuild their home, and fend off any more invaders. Of course, other countries are afraid of them because of their powers, so they desire to use or conquer them. Em claims that Cas will leave Ruina alone; Olivia has doubts. As far as she is concerned, Olivia would like to kill everyone and take whatever she wants as vengeance. Olivia is a little on the crazy side, but Em believes she can control her, as Olivia has decided they will rule the Ruina together as co-queens. Aren could be as powerful as Olivia, so she works with him to show him how to not be exhausted from using his powers. Aren likes the powers but worries about Olivia’s lack of humanity; ultimately, his loyalty lies with Em. Their alliances with other realms are precarious. Olivia doesn’t trust anyone, but Em believes diplomacy is a better path than violence. Cas has his own problems. His cousin Jovita thinks Cas’s promise to leave the Ruina alone was stupid. She wants to go to war and crush them. Because he mourns his family, Cas doesn’t see what Jovita is doing: she’s quietly turning everyone to her so that she will be in charge instead of Cas. Cas wants peace; Jovita wants war. It’s a battle that Jovita wins when she locks Cas in his room. With his guard’s help, Cas barely escapes with his life. Cas and Em are destined to be together, which is proven every time one of them has a problem. They always magically find each other, as if fate has decided they must. When Cas and Em are reunited, they must trust each other to deal with Olivia and Jovita and hope that, in the end, their battles will result in peace.It doesn’t seem that Avenged is as long as Ruined. There’s less intrigue, but I see that it’s setting up for more to happen in book three. I’m unsure if this is a trilogy or a series. I enjoyed living in Em’s world again. I like the characters, the suspense, the slight romance, and the writing style. I highly recommend both books.

    If you liked RUINED, AVENGED will leave you feeling just as excited!Picking up where book one left off, AVENGED continues the Ruined series with action, deception, politics, love and turns that will leave you wondering why you didn't see that coming. The characters continue to grow together and as individuals and the storyline is smooth and easy to fall into. Cas and Em still have me loving them as a couple—not that they are always a couple. They are torn apart by their warring sides, but fate still finds ways to push them together. They don't have much romance time, but I still enjoyed their interactions and I could feel the connection between them, even when they weren't allowed to show it.I enjoyed the addition of Aren's POV. It is easy to like him and root for him in everything he does. Olivia is beyond crazy and it shows in every decision she makes. People see it, but I don't think they fully understood how much crazy was there until the end when it was too late. There are a few other secondary characters—especially Iria and Violet—that I enjoyed getting to know more about as well.I'm dying to know what will happen next and I really want Em to get her happily ever after at the end of it. She has sacrificed so much—and for people that don't fully appreciate it—that she deserves some good to come of everything that's happened. Book three doesn't have a name yet, but it's already on my wishlist.* This book was provided free of charge from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

    Very good sequel! The events that happened in this book were amazing and emotional! I really like Amy Tintera's writing style and I'm excited to see what the Flores sisters have in store in the next Ruined installment!
