Feyness - A Dark Romance (The Red Order Book 1) Kindle Edition

*Dive into the first book in the bestselling dark romance series, The Red Order*

I don't see dead people.
I see you.
I see every incarnation of you.
I see the history of your soul.
I can see your aura soaked in the blood of your previous lives.
Most people are inherently good or evil.
Some flit between darkness and light.
Few can change the fabric of their essence; it's a fight that most are too weak to win.
He was once darkness.
An evil so pure that his very soul is black and yet I am drawn to him like a moth to a flame.
Some days, I feel like I am drowning, the waves of my feelings stealing the very air from my lungs.
Other days, I feel nothing at all.
I'm unsure which is worse; gasping for air or dying from this thirst.
Can you learn to breathe underwater when you find someone worth drowning for?

Feyness is a dark standalone.
Readers of a sensitive disposition may want to step away from the book.
Step away, nothing to see here.
Readers who like to dance on the dark side, come on in and enjoy the ride.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

USA Today Bestselling Author, ES Carter, lives in Cardiff, South Wales—the home of castles, dragons, and folklore.

Her family joke that she was born with a book in her hand, and the urge to write stories soon followed.

At eleven, she won her school's literary prize. At ages fourteen to sixteen - her poetry phase after falling in love with Dylan Thomas and e.e. cummings - she had a few poems published, but life, love, and family overtook her dreams, and she was in her thirties when she began the scary journey of self-publishing.

Her debut and internationally best-selling series, 'Love by Numbers', are a set of interconnected stand-alone romances, all with varying themes of love. From second-chance to romantic comedy and M/M romance. These stories do not need to be read in order (apart from the opening duet Nineteen/Twenty One), in fact, she is often guilty of advising readers to start at the last book and work their way back through.

Contemporary romance is not the only genre she writes, her second series, 'The Red Order', is as dark and twisted as you can get, but there is beauty there too if you can open your eyes and look.

With many more stories bursting to be set free, she hopes you stay along for the ride.

She loves to connect with readers, so please feel free to friend/follow her on Facebook, IG, and Twitter or join her reader's group, E's Elite <3

I found myself getting angry but begging for more
I’ve had this one on my TBR for what seems like forever, but for one reason or another I hadn’t sat down to start reading it.Big, big mistake!I literally just finished this book and sat there with my Kindle trying to figure out what in the hell I just read. So many thoughts are swirling around in my head. E.S. Carter brought me into a story that was soooo dark and taboo, yet I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough to read where she was taking me next. I particularly loved the twist on Faye’s character. She brings a completely different perspective of what darkness looks like through the colors surrounding her.“Readers who like to dance on the dark side, come on in and enjoy the ride.”This about sums it up. From the beginning E.S. Carter welcomes you to the dark side, where you will be taken deep into the trenches of a love to hate adventure between two families that shows the seedier side of revenge.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic!

I LOVE dark romance. And when I see an author venturing into that genre, I get really freaking excited. But I also get nervous. I have high standards for what constitutes a great dark romance.

This met every one.

The writing was on point and deliciously detailed. Carter's descriptions and dialogue were so perfect that I just couldn't put this book down! Cole and Faye were dark, decadent, and sultry in the most perfect way.

I will say that this is definitely a dark romance, not dark erotica. Although there are plenty of steamy AWESOME scenes, Feyness is, without a doubt, plot and character driven. Her writing reminds me of Pepper Winters at her finest, bringing together carnage and forbidden desires perfectly. Definitely one I need to own in paperback.

4.0 out of 5 stars Deliciously Dark and Twisted
Reviewed in the United States on August 18, 2017

This book was a deliciously dark and twisted read. It was the first I've ever read by this author. I read it in a day. I just couldn't put it down. There are some incredibly horrible atrocities committed in this story to children and adults so if you are a delicate flower do not read it. The author warns you so I had better not read any 1 star reviews because of it.
The title comes from the fact that the heroine has the ability to see auras and her name is Faye as well. I know a couple of people who have this ability but I don't think that they see auras like this woman does. Our anti hero's name is Cole. Faye and Cole were both raised by evil men and their mothers were long dead. Faye was given to Cole by her father as a gift for Cole's dedication to The Red Order. The Red Order is an underground organization committing all kinds of illegal acts throughout Europe and the western world. Their subversive acts direct the outcomes of economies and wars of nations. Their women are treated like chattel. The organization has been ruled by Cole Hunter's and Faye Craven's families who have a history going back generations. The story takes place in and around London.
This is an indie book and and the author is English. You won't find typos or grammar mistakes in this book which for me is refreshing when so many indie books read like English is the author's second language. At first I was thinking that this book was like Pepper Winter's Indebted series but this book is what that series should have been.
The POV alternates between Faye and Cole with each chapter.
I didn't care for the ending treatment. There were two parts to the epilogue. I would have liked the first part before the last chapter but the author chose to extend the suspense by not telling us of a certain outcome.
I wish that the story would have been longer taking the time to slowly develop Faye and Cole's relationship. In three days they were in love. The amount of real BDSM in this story takes place near the very end.
There is room for at least two or three more books in this series, two of them based on Cole's brother Luke and their brother by another mother, Grim. The second book will be coming out sometime this year. I hate catching a series on the opening end. I like to binge read a series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dark artistry at its best!!!

"Love kills. It's not hearts and flowers. It's death and blood."

This quote right here sums up what you'll get from Feyness. If you're looking for a fluffy and sweet love, than this isn't the story for you. But, if you're trying to find one that focuses on the brutality of love, then go right ahead. Pick it up. I dare you. :)

As a lover of dark romance, I was very skeptical at first, wondering if ES Carter will be able to do the genre justice or not. Well she did it justice, but man oh man, she surpassed all of my expectations!!!

Feyness was . . . INCREDIBLE

Told in dual POV, Feyness gives us the story of Faye and Cole, a couple of 'star-crossed lovers' *yes, I said that*, who have to battle against not only their beliefs but also the people around them to get their 'relationship' to the point of no return and even then, nothing is for certain. I won't say much about the plot as I want that to be a surprise. But I'll say this. What I loved most about this story were the 2 leads. 

Faye is the epitome of a survivalist. All her life all she did was survive, and just when she thought this is how is going to end, in came Cole, the tormented monster our mothers' warned us about, and swept her off her feet. 

This story is brutal, it's not for the faint of heart. All throughout the book we have gruesome and bloody scenes that will either make you dry-heave or praise the author's ability to imagine such atrocities. I'm used to a lot of twisted scenes in my dark books, but these were of the charts crazy, and *don't tell anyone* I couldn't get enough; I was internally pleading to get more, more blood, more gore, more darkness. The thing is, they worked amazingly for this book. The world in which Faye lives isn't a 'light' one, and the author explored all the debauchery of the human nature, but in such a way that it was believable. Nothing she described was for shock value, every single thing had a role to play in the uncovering of the plot. 
 
And now onto the good part - the writing - I'll call it wordy, but I wouldn't have it any other way. To put it simply, it is spectacular. The way ES Carter uses these words to create beautiful and mesmerizing scenes is magical; all her descriptions are so rich in details, that it gives you the feeling that you are right there in the midst of all the action. And this is the reason why, more times than I anticipated, I was forced to put the book down, take a breather and then go back in, secretly praying for more. 

All in all, if you like dark books with all the fixings, please, I beg you, give Feyness a try, it won't disappoint you. 
 
P.S.The two secondary characters will rock your socks!!! Luke and Grim, the classy assassin vs the backwoods killer - you know what I'll say next . . .they NEED books!!!

I won't rate the book less than a 3, because it was well written. It definitely had a level of intensity... But the subject matter just wasn't for me, but I can't see rating it a 1 star just because I don't agree with the subject.
So, while well written and suspenseful, be warned it contains graphic violence, including rape and torture of adults and children. Not something I enjoy reading...

It was listed in bookbub as dark romance & erotica. It's neither romance nor erotica. It's only dark. The description of torture and atrocities was to much for me. So why 2 stars? Because it's well written and dramatic

This was not only the first book I've ever read from this Author, but also the first dark romance I've read in a long time, and I'm now kicking myself for not doing both sooner!

Right from page one, you are swept into the most twisted world imaginable. Typically I'm a little weak when it comes to the harsh and dark in stories, but the way the Author wrote Feyness, you could literally do nothing but sit with your jaw hanging open in awe. The grit and gore in this story was molded into this amazing, depth filled plot line that leaves you utterly speechless. For that and that alone I applaud the Author. It's one thing to shock people, but it's a complete different thing to shock them and leave them thinking at the same time, and ES did this was a grace unlike any I've ever witnessed.

I wanted to hate Cole, I really did. However the flashes and glimpses you're given of his different sides, leaves you desperately hoping that hill will redeem himself. That hope gives you no choice but to fall head over heals in lust with this overbearing alpha. That lust consumes you until your swept off your feet with love for him as he begins to show little sparks of light.

I also loved the almost paranormal element that the Author put in with Faye's gifts. Without giving anything away, I will just say that it was a completely unique twist to the story that left me looking at people in my own life and wondering what color I would see floating around them.

I can't wait to dive into more from this Author. One of my top reads of 2016 by far!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Dark Novel!!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 6, 2016

I want to start by saying that I loved this book, and I want to add why. It's not because I'm a big fan of E.S. Carter's Love By Numbers series because this story is polls apart from those. It's a new road for this author, and I have to say, I think she smashed it!

It is very dark. The main subject matter is upsetting, and I admit that at times I thought I would feel uncomfortable because I didn't know how far she would go. I didn't need to worry. It was handled brilliantly and at no point did I feel so uncomfortable that I couldn't read on. It was descriptive, yet not explixit. She added just the right amount of information so that you got the point without dry heaving!

I found Faye almost ghost-like in her appearance, but I thought that made her all the more beautiful. The aura's she experiences adding to this ghost and serene quality. She is a victim, and her unlikely savior is Cole Hunter. In the most part, he is a bad boy of the worst kind, but he finds his calm with Faye.

The story is backed up with equally intriguing characters, namely Luke (Cole's brother) and Grim. I think they have more to share with us - I live in hope!

One last thing, the writing is absolutely out of this world. I can only describe it as poetic. This is why I love E.S. Carter. I haven't found anyone else to match her effortless flow of incredibly beautiful words.
