I went into this book with an open mind as its not my usual genre HOWEVER I am so glad I picked up this books!
A.C. Kramer might be my new author to watch because as much as I loved this book I think I need to read everything I can by this author.

This book was written so well and had such a hook that the reader was brought in and couldn’t leave! The characters are wonderful, the story is well written and the author was able to bring the readers in so that we lived the book with the characters!

What a fitting title! I was intrigued by the title and the description. I figured it would be dark, and it was, but I loved it. I finished it in just a couple hours. I loved not only Sydney’s character, but Kage’s as well. The author did a great job of world building, as I felt like I was there. It is definitely a page turner with plenty of twists! It will keep you guessing. If you like dark and twisted stories, this is a great choice.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Sydney is invited to go to The Lodge with some classmates for Spring Break. What she thinks is going to be a vacation spent with hoity-toity privileged rich kids….but it turns out to be anything but that! She finds herself as a pawn in a game of Truth or Kill. Being that she doesn’t have the secrets, or want to know their secrets, she needs to find out how to survive when she is expendable to all the other players. She does find herself drawn to Kage…but he seems to have his own agenda.
Kage is a dark, yet somehow also intriguing, character. He trusts no one, despite wanting to have Sydney for himself. She must prove herself…which turns out to be difficult to read at times. Understanding why things have to happen and reading them actually happening is tormenting. However, the sheer ruthlessness and depravity of the game was captivating.
I found myself pulled into this story and couldn’t step away from it…even though it felt like I needed to at times. It is captivating. Sydney and Kage are both strong characters. Sydney is not afraid to stand up for herself or take people’s crap…but she also knows when to follow someone else’s lead and align herself with people for a common goal. Overall, an entertaining story that I enjoyed reading!

I have a new favorite Genre. Author. Both! I finished this novel yesterday and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it. The way that the author wrote the story, integrating the characters and the emotions and the points of view throughout, as well as establishing the scene and allowing for the reader to be completely immersed in the Lodge and the Game.

J, K, and L’s backstory is immaculately woven and explains why they live the way they live, and what their endgame is. I will most certainly be reading more by this author and have sent a link to this lovely literary adventure to a few folks already. Was there a Game? I guess you will have to read this thriller and find out! Amazing, just didn’t want it to end!

I really enjoyed this story. I loved the twist and turns. The plot of the story was unique and gripping. I couldn’t stop reading until I got to the end. The author does an amazing job with the characters. I love how strong and determined Sydney’s character is. I also love how dark Kage is. His struggle to do what he needs to so or protect the woman he has fallen for is interesting to read, you can feel his struggle. This is a very dark romance, with twists and turns. I loved the idea of a game being played and making a decision between being truthful or losing their life.

Sydney was invited to join her friends on a retreat however this is no normal retreat. There is a sinister plot at hand which will see some of the people on the retreat end up dead. But the reason for this will be a shock to everyone involved.

Sydney needs to find out the reason she was brought here and find a way to survive and escape with her life.

Kage is a worker at the retreat or so everyone thinks. However he has a secret. Kage is a killer and also one of the 3 masterminds behind the game of Truth or kill. His plan is to stick to the plan and make sure the people on the retreat get what they deserve. However Sydney wasn’t part of that plan and her appearance has changed things. As his feelings for her grow he doesn’t want her to be another murder victim he wants her for himself but will she be able to deal with everything he has done or will she know to much and reject him which means she will have to die.

OMG!!!! I honestly loved this book so much, from the mysteriousness of “The Lodge” to the “staff”I am so glad that I chose it. Sydney and Kage remind me of Christian Grey and Anastasia with their physical descriptions of the romance between them. I can’t wait to see what happens in book 2, with Sydney, Kage, L, and J. I am hoping that the other two find love as well. I seriously am fascinated with the outcome of this story. I feel like the endgame didn’t really happen that there is more to it.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I must offer a trigger warning with this book for dark content as the author does the same. If you are tender-hearted or soft-natured, this book may not be for you. This novel is a thriller. This action pack, page-turning, the romance-filled heart-stopping book will have you catching your breath. Sydney thought he was in for a relaxing time at the cabin, however she finds herself playing a sick and twisted game of Truth or Dare….Truth or Kill… Kage didn’t expect to find the white innocence that is Sydney and he is drawn to her, but she isn’t what he expects. This book isn’t what you expect. Lovers of thrillers, romance, action and dark content will love this book.

This book had everything I would love from a dark and seductive romance. I could not put this one down. Every word I was hanging onto, and wondering where actions would lead to the next one. I was entranced and held put. I felt as if I would turn away, I would miss something rather captivating!

First off, loved the writing. The author knew very well how to keep the reader enticed and interested as they wrote the story. I was hooked, that is needless to say. The book was very twisted at times, and had its own sense of dark aurora. It made me love this book even more! Sydney was great by the way. She had the most amazing character growth I would say! What she started as , and what she became. There was many things to unravel in this book, and all of it was a pure joy. I loved this book with every beat of my heart!

Loved this book so much! So very much perfectly written. I could not let it go, and will be thinking of it for says most likely! Highly recommend this must read book! Seriously, do not pass it up what so ever!

Have you seen this cover !?!? Oh my goodness I can just get lost in it 🥰🔥

Sydney is a bit of an outsider to start off with she’s your average girl who’s bright and earned herself a scholarship while the others are from affluent families and have all the bells and whistles that gone with that life style but I must say I feel her when she says escapes reality between the trees and wilderness ❣️ she really is a nice girl and I think it’s not always easy being around her pampered crowd …..especially when they head out to “ The Lodge “ for spring break ….

Kage , you both frighten me and make me want to be a cougar , I know I’m twisted but hello so you !!!!

Truth or dare has nothing on Truth or Kill what an epically twisted read it was !!! Kage and Sydney are the perfect match like Beauty and the Beast but with no library 😉😜

Twisted perfection !

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

“Dark Romance” is right! This book was twisted and alluring, so much so that I read it all in a few hours. I couldn’t risk putting it down and not getting the answers to the endgame. As the story unravels, I never quite knew what to expect! Little hints were sprinkled into the story, but I could never fully anticipate what was to come.

This story follows Sydney as she is thrown in with the wolves – almost literally. She was invited at the last minute to attend a retreat with 13 heirs to a large corporation. Even though she is the odd one out, she ends up getting clued into some of the mysterious inner workings of a game they are all playing. Watching Sydney evolve throughout the story – especially at the hands of Kage – was intense. Lots of steamy and suspenseful scenes to keep me hooked!

Beware there are triggers!

“Welcome to the darkness, my little black rose. Blood is your new currency. And it’s time to pay the price.”

Truth or Kill is a thrilling new adult story and the first book in this series. I enjoyed the unique plot which is a dark, with a little humour and twisted bloody game. I have read a lot of this authors books that are paranormal, magic books that I loved but love her dark and twisted tale is even better. The story is cleverly woven with intrigue and suspense.

There’s plenty of passion, secrets, vengeance, thrills, deranged games, drama, dangerous agendas, murder, mystery and so much more. This is a short read with lots of twist and turns.

Truth or Kill (Twisted Legends Collection, #2)Truth or Kill by A.C. Kramer
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Truth or Kill is a dark romance about a girl named Sydney who finds herself, during spring break, at a retreat with one of her teammates. However, she is confused about why she was asked to come, they were not really friends and her teammate and the people she associates with are heirs to a tech company. She comes to find out that every heir or heiress to the company is here for a “team building” seminar. During the seminar they are introduced to a game called “Truth or Kill”. Sidney doesn’t understand why she needs to be a part of it, but it forced to play this game. During all of this she meets a manager of the resort, Kage. She sees him as similar to her, but senses he is different too. She finds a little bit of solace in him as the game is started and many of the participants’ truths are surfacing, which are not very becoming. Sydney finds herself in many unpredictable scenes with either Kage or the heirs/heiresses during the stay. She quickly starts to put the pieces together about what could possibly be going on and she comes to realize she has to play or she will not make it to the end. She is smart and witty and with the “help” of Kage finds a way to fight. Throughout the “game” she starts to have feelings for this dark and dangerous man, Kage. Will he keep her, help her, or possibly kill her? Will she save herself?
I really enjoyed this dark romance. I felt that as I read I was solving a puzzle, which is one of my favorite things to do. As for the characters, Sydney was amazing as a leading woman. She was vulnerable, but mostly brutally honest and strong minded. As someone who can get into the dark romances and bullying scenarios, I really loved Kage. I think what was refreshing about him is the honesty factor his character brought. He was brutal, dangerous, smart, cunning, but also never hid those things from Sydney. She knew what she was getting herself into, for the most part when it came to Kage, and still chose to trust him. I also love how you saw his development, he never became less dark, but he did allow some light in. There were some trigger warnings: knife play, choking, and guns.

You’re cordially invited to attend this year’s spring break retreat at The Lodge.

It’s a highly exclusive experience guaranteed to redefine your future.

Assuming you survive.

Sydney

I thought it was a joke.

Some pompous high-society game meant to play with the children of the elite.

But then people started dying.

Including the one who invited me to attend.

Now I’m the one they all suspect.

Because I have blood on my hands.

Their blood.

Kage

The pretty little pawn isn’t supposed to be here.

She’s unique. Not one of them. A potential prize I may take for myself.

But only if she learns how to properly play this game.

The terms are simple: truth or kill?

Mmm, I hope she picks kill.

Because she’ll look stunning in red.

Welcome to the darkness, my little black rose.

Blood is your new currency.

And it’s time to pay the price.

Author’s Note: Truth or Kill is a standalone novel. Please review the warning inside for dark content that may be triggering to readers.
