Flock is Live!
My Review:
Flock (Book One in Ravenhood Duet) by Kate Stewart
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
“I grew up believing that real love stories include a martyr or demand great sacrifice to be worthy.“
Flock is an incredibly sensual, tension-filled, atmospheric and complex ride. Get ready. You donโt want to miss it.
In this first person-narrated book by Kate Stewart, Cecelia is a woman plagued by the past. She is remembering the year she turned nineteen, when she was forced to go and work and live with her estranged father, Roman Horner. At the end of the year, sheโll be rewarded. Flock is incredibly atmospheric. You can almost hear the wind blowing through the trees and feel the emotions draping around your shoulders like a heavy woolen cloak. At the beginning of the book the emotions of Cecelia and the emptiness of the home she is forced to live in are clearly and chillingly echoed back at the reader through Kate Stewartโs excellent prose. The tension is almost unsettling.
Then, after an orientation session at her new job at the plant Cecelia meets Sean, who invites her to a party. Cecelia who is an introvert and โgood girlโ decides to be a โyes girlโ for the next year. At the party Cecelia is introduced to Seanโs brotherhood. And thatโs really all I can tell you.
The plot of the book is a highly guarded secret. Iโm glad the duet is being released so closely together. Get ready people.

๐๐๐ง ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐ค๐๐๐ฉ ๐ ๐ฌ๐๐๐ซ๐๐ญ?
I grew up sick.
Let me clarify.
I grew up believing that real love stories include a martyr or demand great sacrifice to be worthy.
Because of that, I believed it, because I made myself believe it, and I bred the most masochistic of romantic hearts, which resulted in my illness.
When I lived this story, my own twisted fairy tale, it was unbeknownst to me at the time because I was young and naรฏve. I gave into temptation and fed the beating beast, which grew thirstier with every slash, every strike, every blow.
Triple Falls wasnโt at all what it seemed, nor were the men that swept me under their wing. But in order to keep them, I had to be in on their secrets.
Secrets that cost us everything to keep.
Thatโs the novelty of fiction versus reality. You canโt re-live your own love story, because by the time youโve realized youโre living it, itโs over. At least that was the case for me and the men I trusted my foolish heart to.
Looking back, Iโm convinced I willed my story into existence due to my illness.
