À propos de cette écoute
We're tempted to play games, thinking they will give us more power–but that only works if we win.
After spending the holidays with my guardian's family, it seems that everyone in the temple has the wrong idea. The Baron isn't my patron. He's not even a friend. In truth, I hate the man.
But the rumor mill is strong, and jealousy is running rampant.
This is all just one more excuse for my instructors to hold me back, lower my grades, and try to force me to choose one path. I can't! My god needs me to save him, and the Path of Temptation gives me the power to do that.
Except that I'm drowning in the pressure, feeling like I'm failing my god. I need to make people believe in him, but how can I do that when I can't believe in myself? All these mind games are starting to pile up, and it's tearing me apart.
But Zeal is getting stronger.
That's enough to keep me going. No matter how hard they try to push me down, I'll just keep fighting back, learning to play this game better each time. I will not become the victim here, because I'm not doing this alone. My lovers will always stand with me.
But this is not a game. If we fail, we'll lose everything...including each other.
The Path of Temptation series features a strong woman and the men who love her. It includes graphic language, adult situations, and potentially triggering violence and discussions of rape and assault. It is intended for a mature audience.

Still engrossing, but
The characters are growing and it's nice. The story 8s moving forward, albeit -very- slowly. However, 4 things stood out negatively to me:
1. I get the benevolent god, but, really? He is portrayed like just any guy, in way too familiar interactions with main or lesser characters.
2. The female character is young but the reader often puts too much perkiness in the tone and I have to rush and turn the volume down, wondering why she's yelling. Especially after a chapter from one of the male pov. Arghh!
3. One of the things that hooked me in book 1 was the lack of unnecessary self doubt and going round and round. Here, it's sadly very heavy. "I'm bad, no one can love me"-after 3 similar conversations, we get it!- , "The system is broken; I have to do something" -yeah, we know, do it already- and on and on. Could have been shorter by several chapters.
4. I regret that, to the exception of one excursion, we don't see anything other than the temple. And even that is not described fully, to make it come alive and immerse us in the surroundings as a major part of the story.
I hope most if these aspects will mature in the next books, as I still enjoy the story, despite its weaknesses and some stalling, just for the sake of pushing a series. Looking forward to book 4.
