Riven Knight - Devney Perry




Genevieve Daylee didn’t expect to be standing in front of a judge on her twenty-seventh birthday. But ever since her life became entangled with a former motorcycle gang, she’s learned not to expect anything but trouble.

Her mother, a woman she once admired and adored, is gone, leaving behind a trail of secrets and lies. She’s living in a tiny apartment above a garage owned by her brother, a man who loathes her very existence. And the father she met beside her mother’s grave is as much of a stranger as Isaiah Reynolds, the broken man with soulless eyes standing beside her in front of the judge.

Isaiah is her protector from the murderer at large in Clifton Forge. Though he’s more like a riven knight in dented armor than a prince on a white stallion. She knows next to nothing about him, other than he works as a mechanic. As of tonight, he’ll be sharing her bathroom.

And, according to the judge, Isaiah is now her husband.












I absolutely loved Gypsy King, and having read Tragic, I was aware of some of Isaiah’s back story and I couldn’t wait to read Riven Knight, the second title in the Tin Gypsy series and it didn’t disappoint. 

Honestly marriage of convenience stories are not one of my go to tropes, but Genevieve and Isaiah’s story is so much more.  Riven Knight is an emotional, gritty, slow burn romance, bull of intrigue, suspense, pain, heartbreak and suffering. 

Genevieve Daly is a fighter, her life is in a shambles, she’s been thrust into a marriage of convenience and everything she thought she knew about her mother’s life is now shrouded in mystery and deceit, and is determined to find answers.  Genevieve is everything I look for in a heroine, she’s strong, capable, intelligent, brave and driven. 

Isaiah Reynolds is a enigmatic, tortured soul.  He is a gruff, brooding hero with a complicated past that haunts him, but it’s his protective, caring and fierce nature that makes him all the more appealing and sexy, not to mention the tattoos. 

Once again I was completely captivated and cannot wait to see more of the Tin Gypsy’s in Stone Princess.
