Tobias Kaya doesn't care about The Savior. He doesn't care that She's the ruler of the realm or that She purified the land, and he certainly doesn't care that She's of age to be married. But when competing for Her hand proves to be his last chance to save his family, he's forced to make The Savior his priority.
Now Tobias is thrown into the Sovereign's Tournament with nineteen other men, and each of them is fighting - and killing - for the chance to rule at The Savior's side. Instantly, his world is plagued with violence, treachery, and manipulation, revealing the hidden ugliness of his proud realm. And when his circumstances seem especially dire, he stumbles into an unexpected romance, one that opens him up to unimaginable dangers and darkness.
Trigger warnings: this book contains graphic violence, foul language, and sexual situations.

This was a great story. It’s not typically the type of book I would buy… although I might have to reconsider. I’ll definitely be purchasing the saviours sister.
Author review:
While I personally have a different writing style that leans towards larger novellas, I think Jenna did a fantastic job with 2 things in particular that kept me going.
1) character development. There were two characters that I absolutely hated and Tobias grew on me.
2) given that romance is something I normally cringe at, it wasn’t ridiculous and the romance felt real without being dragged on for the sake of extending a scene.
Thanks Jenna!

First fantasy book that I was able to listen to on audiobook, previous narrators weren't able to keep my attention for more than a half hour.

I found Tobias to be very annoying. Ok, I get that he doesn’t want to be with Cassima, but he keeps repeating that over and over around a billion times, seeming to forget that by winning he also gets to live, which is kinda essential if he wants to be with this other girl. His strategy seems to be to do the bare minimum required to stay alive, which makes the whole tournament seem like a joke.
Tobias never used his brain to think about the future, about ways to win or what he could do if he was the sovereign, about the other men and the possible ways they’d kill him or he would kill them. His thoughts were all about his girl, and that soon became endlessly frustrating.
Why has nobody killed him yet? Why didn’t he even try to befriend the savior? Why didn’t the powerful men just massacre everybody from the start? I have no idea. Why didn’t Tobias want to win so that he could survive and later look for ways to cheat the system/ set himself free or reform the country. He swore over and over to protect his gf, yet when a competitor found out about their secret, he let the guy go after making threats to torture him if he talked... seriously? Tobias could be killed on the spot for far less reasons and his girlfriend too. He puts himself and her in danger for the sake of...? His humanity? Putting his girlfriend in danger to give this other guy a fair chance to kill him is his idea of humanity?
Now, about the girl... she has qualities, alright, but she never peaked my curiosity. Whenever Tobias picked her over the savior I rolled my eyes... at least the savior is someone we don’t know, at least there’s something about her to discover. The author saying how amazing he feels around his gf does nothing for me. I won’t feel amazing reading about her until she’s actually doing stuff, not just kissing and moaning and telling him about the challenges.
Speaking of, I’m beyond sick of the kissing scenes... When you see people kiss, do you politely ignore them or do you prefer to stare into their mouths? I feel like this book forced me to do the latter, no story-driving elements involved.
Was expecting more.
