Review | Fable of Happiness by Pepper Winters
Title: Fable of Happiness
Author: Pepper Winters
Publication Date: June 4, 2021
Rating: ★★★★.5
It’s the start of something huge.
From New York Times Bestseller, Pepper Winters, comes a new Dark Romance full of decadent angst, monstrous heroes, and pages chock-full of lust.
A house hidden in the middle of nowhere.
A man who’s lived alone for a decade.
A woman who trespasses on his solitude.
A love full of hate as well as hunger.
The thing about my life is...I was never in control of it.
I just I thought I was.
I thought I had everything figured out—a good career, fun hobbies, a bright future, but everything changed when I found an ivy-cloaked house, tucked in a forgotten valley, hiding a man who corrupted my world forever.
I thought I was successful, until he showed me fortune and happiness could be snatched away in an instant.
I believed I was blessed, but really, I was cursed.
Cursed to become a plaything for a monster.
Cursed to become a prisoner just because I trespassed.
Now, I know nothing.
I am nothing.
I’m just his.

Pepper Winters really knows how to write a dark and heartbreaking story!
This book introduces us to Kassen - our anti-hero - and Gemma - our heroine - both characters that are flawed, hurt and broken in different ways.
Kassen is such a complex character who has gone through so much hurt and pain in his life and when he meets Gemma, he mistreats her. His reasonings are very much justified in my eyes. His feelings and emotions were so raw, especially the flashbacks he experienced. This man is traumatised and broken but there is humanity and compassion found in him.
Gemma is broken and lonely, feeling adrift with her personal life. She has a career in climbing, showing her adventures on social media. She is a thrill seeker always on the lookout for her next big adventure. Gemma is a strong heroine, yet vulnerable at the same time. This is something I love about Pepper Winters writing, her heroines are strong, bold and vulnerable. Always the perfect balance for their man.
Kassen and Gemma are intense together, their story is so amazing and so worth the read because this book will blow your mind and break you at the same time.
Also, this book ends in a huge cliffhanger and I am seriously dying until the release of book 2!
