Thank you Netgally for the free eARC!

Shivalri is still stuck in the Under World, kidnapped by Pyre, saved (?) by the God of Nightmares. As she tries to escape the Under World, she's betrayed again and rescued by Pyre. Her family on earth is fighting for her rescue and get involved in a rebellion.

Pyre has such a great way with words - I really loved his story. The love story between Pyre and Shivalri was entertaining but it didn't feel as natural, because they didn't openly communicate until like 60% of the book. Despite this I really liked Shivalris character development.

This should be a New Adult Fantasy Novel but I still got YA Vibes, especially Satyras Chapters. They felt like another book to me. The witch plot felt unnecessary to me. I feel like I could've skipped through it and still understand the plot. The introduction of all the new characters seemed important but unfortunately I couldn't care less about them.

2.5/5 Stars

Not very often the sequel is better than the first! There were some grammatical errors that made the reading a little more difficult that I would have liked it to be, but overall, I enjoyed this one.

Unfortunately this is not for me.
There is entirely too much useless chatter that is easy to skip and still follow the story.
I think the premise is interesting but the characters irked me. The teens in the book occasionally speak like they're from the regency era which completely took me out of the story.
I just felt like this could have been a novella.

Thank you NetGalley and author Shania Scichilone for the copy in exchange for an honest review.

"Awakening in a daze with the inscrutable God of Nightmares standing above her, Shivalri demands to know what happened after her monstrous fall. Ombrose relinquishes naught, and the goddess is left to question as they travel through the Forest of Lost Souls.

After Ombrose discloses his capture of Shivalri to his godly line, the Orsimm family grows weary. No one defies the ruler of the Under Realm-except perhaps Shivalri herself. When Pyre Malum ventures to retrieve her, the pair will uncover how significantly she becomes his only exception. Truth, lies, and magic line their path to discovering their ties.

SATYRA KNOWS THE PROPHECY Shivalri must repair the veil and keep the physical Gates from opening and unleashing pandemonium unto Earth. But how could she when she is missing?

Through a see-walk, Satyra witnesses Shivalri slumped over and blood-soaked, surrounded by the High Council and a diabolic creature. In this dream state, Satyra can do nothing to stop the winged fiend from taking Shivalri through a flaming portal. A portal to where? Hell? When she relays this vision to her grandmother and cousin Raidan, they hatch a plan to save Shivalri-with an unforeseen rebel at their side.

In a twist of fate, enemies become allies, family fights for freedom, and the new Triple Goddess embarks on a journey to repair the veil between realms."

I love reading this book. Multiple POVs and easy to follow plots.

This book was a interesting surprise. The various POV made the book was more easy to read, the whole sense of Magic and world building was interesting and the relationship of character (Enemies To Lovers) was interesting to. Is a solid fantasy book that I would recomend to read if you want to start reading fantasy.

“A Fate of Gods and Fire” by Shania Scichilone

Shivalri thought she fell but awakes finding out she was saved by the God of Nightmares. He wanted to save her from Pyre. Shivalri’s feeling for Pyre is conflicted and she decides to go with God of Nightmares to his home in her need to run from Pyre. But does she really want to flee from him? Meanwhile her family is trying to get her back to the human realm and fight the ones who gave Shivalri to Pyre in the first place. Danger lurks in both realms.

I loved this book so much. It was even better than the first Fates Divine book. Finally, Shivalri and Pyre face their feelings towards each other. The second book delves deeper into the world building, and I loved every second of it. I cannot wait to read the next book OMG. I gave it a 5 out of 5. And finally, I find out why the first book cover looks like it does which made me so confused during the first book.

-Multi POV
-Magic
-Gods/ Goddesses
-Enemies To Lovers

Wow, I tried to get through this and probably would have given it a better rating than the first if it were not for the massive grammar errors, and strands of words stuck together. I will try to revisit this later when it's been updated.

Thank you to NetGalley and publishers for allowing me access to the E-arc.

4.75*

Omg! The second book is just as good as the first! Shania Scichilone is one of my new favorite authors. I love the fact that these series deals with grief, strength and chronic illness.

I highly recommend!!

This was a great read. I was totally engrossed in the story and wanted more when it ended. Can’t wait to see what is next.

Entertaining and suspenseful read with unexpected twists. Good dialogue and situations to keep you turning to the next page. Great characters and story that keeps you hooked until the last page! Wonderful book. Good read.
