'I
don't choose him. Not anymore. I'm choosing me.'

I was told that being confined was to keep the bad out . . . Until I realized it was about keeping me in.

Midas made me forbidden and weak. Little did he know that I would find my wings and voice - which sings now.

After living amongst the terrifying army of Fourth Kingdom, I find myself, once again, in strange lands and a kingdom surrounded by liars.

But something has ignited within me. Something dark. Something angry.

Then comes King Ravinger.

And the last thing I wanted was my heart to be torn.

Can I really fall in love when the cities around me threaten to crumble and my fate hangs in the balance?

One thing is for sure, I won't be caught in a cage again.

No, this time, it'll be me setting the trap.

Tropes/themes:

1. Dark and angsty
2. Plot and politics
3. Romance and smut
4. Multiple POVs
5. World-building

Praise for The Plated Prisoner Series * : *
This series has stolen my heart, my breath, my regard for anything else. I've never been so immersed in a story before-never read characters that have felt so real. I've cried, laughed, screamed, thrown my kindle across the room, picked it up again, swooned . . . These characters, this WORLD . . . it's everything. Raven has written a story for the ages, destined to go down as one of the epics * Sarah A Parker, author of To Bleed a Crystal Bloom *
Raven writes with a magic that comes to life on the page. Every single word gleams like gold * Beck Michaels, author of Divine Blood *
This is one of those series that started off phenomenal, and only gets better with every subsequent book. * Laura Thalassa, author of The Bargainer Series *
Get ready to be enthralled from the first word, and begging for more by the last. Raven Kennedy crafts an astonishing world that's filled with captivating characters and a story you won't be able to put down * Ivy Asher, bestselling author of The Osseous Chronicles and The Lost Sentinel Series *
This series is amazing and I can't recommend it enough. It is one of the best New Adult Fantasy books out there. * Kay Thatcher, author of Prince of Blades *
TEN GILDED STARS! Remarkably original . . .and the prose, people . . . gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous * Olivia Wildenstein, USA Today Bestselling Author *
An emotional rollercoaster * Elizabeth Brown, author of Blood Crown *
What I've enjoyed so far about this series is how it's a metaphor about real, emotional issues * Day Leitao, author of Kingdom of Curses and Shadows Series *
I devoured [the] first book and it ended on such a nice cliff-hanger that I am thirsting for the next one * Emmie Hamilton, author of Chosen to Fall *
