Invictus Kindle Edition

by Yolanda Olson (Author), Michelle Pace (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.2 out of 5 stars 74 ratings
I don't like the shadows or the darkness that they hide though it's all I've ever known. Fear resides there—lurking and consuming what little is left of me.

I’m intimate with my demons. I know their game, but I cannot master it. I've been running for a long time but there's only so far to go before they catch me and force me into a devious dance so dark that there’ll be no turning back.

And that's why I need him.

That’s why I came home.

My brother’s my salvation from this malevolence. He's taken inventory of my skeletons and knows how to calm the rage when it washes over me like a typhoon, drowning me in pain and regret. But August doesn't know the monster that I've become. I’m afraid of what he’ll do if he finds out.

He's my salvation and I refuse to lose him.

Not because I got carried away.

And certainly not to her.

Because my older brother has plenty of demons too.

And one of them is sleeping in his bed.

Wowzers! I went into this book thinking it was going to be something different than what it was and I was surprised in the best possible way. I loved that I could never guess the direction it was going to go, leaving me turning the pages as fast as I could. I also adore stories that make me love and root for the villain. Although in this case it was villains and there wasn’t actually a “good guy”. Robbie was my favorite character. He was all sorts of whackadoo while simultaneously being freaking adorable. He had this little kid likeness to him that was charming, yet he’ll slit your throat for blinking at him the wrong way. August was soooo freaking sexy and I loved the calm and almost gentle nature to him that complimented Robbie’s insanity. He kind of made me want someone to stalk me like that LOL. Atasha (love her name) was a nice medium between the two. There were times that I could relate to her and others where I didn’t get her at all, but the whole time I enjoyed her perspective. Omg and there was this boat scene…. I really wish that would have been longer. SO HOT. The book is fast paced and the titles were clever and one in particular had me laughing because it was so Robbie: The Wh*re Behind Door #1 Lol. I am familiar with the amazing books Yolanda Olson writes, but this is my first Michelle Pace book and certainly not my last. I love the slight grimy feeling that horror gives me and this was no exception. This was as dark as Atasha’s nail polish. It was depraved, twisted, demented and I adored every page.

    Another thrilling, crazy roller coaster twisted freaking ride from Yolanda Olson, who I have read many times before, but this time we get two amazing authors so added crazy in the form of Michelle Pace, who is a new author to me but from the way this book flowed and gripped me I will be checking her own books out shortly for sure.

    Invictus - A great storyline, brilliant characters August, Atasha, and Robbie each I loved for the same and also very different reasons, not forgetting Magda who was in the wrong place at the right time.

    Lovers of a gruesome, crazy mind-twisted tale this is a one click must!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Dark and Delicious
    Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2018

    When I one-clicked this book, I had no clue what it was about. All I knew is that it looked dark and delicious. I knew I needed to read it. Boy was I right about the dark and deliciousness!

    I need to warn you, if you have a weak stomach, you probably shouldn't read this book. If you like sweet and sappy, you definitely should not read this. If you are looking for unicorns and a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, do NOT read this. This book is none of the above. It is dark. It is gruesome. It is the exact opposite of everything that is good in this world. 

    Let me tell you, my stomach did a few nauseated flips by the end of chapter two. This book definitely jumped right into the nitty gritty from the get go. I knew that I was in for a dark ride, and I couldn't wait.

    The plot of this book is unique and delivered from four different point of views. If you are not a fan of that, have no fear. Each of them are vitally important and easy to follow. Each of them has their own part in the story to tell.

    The characters in this book are demented in a way I hadn't imagined. Out of the four, I am still unsure of the reasoning behind one of them. The authors set it up that she was an essential part of something big, but that something big didn't come. That was the only real disappointment for me. 

    Overall, I devoured this book. I was determined to read it in as little time as possible so I could get to the end. My only wish is that it had been longer. I needed more experiments resulting in that animalistic connection with August and Atasha. Just a little more. I needed to feel that bond that these characters shared just a little bit more.

    So this book is about 2 brothers and a girl. Robbie and Auggie are a bit strange. Tasha also has her issues. Auggie sees something in Tasha and wants to help her be her true self. Robbie just wants to watch the world burn! He wants things his way or no way. The only person who can calm him is his brother. So many twists and turns in this story. This one will definitely make you reread what you just read. No spoilers so I won’t go into any details but these two authors definitely clicked together when writing this. I really want to see more of this story.

    I'm a HUGE fan of Michelle Pace's writing so purchasing Invictus was a no-brainer. I really enjoyed this ROYALLY messed up book. It's crazy to think that this could actually be going on. My only complaint about the book is that I wish there were more. I did feel like the ending was rushed. The resolution feels rushed and that all the loose ends aren't tied up. If I could change anything, that would be it!

    4.0 out of 5 stars A rollercoaster ride of crazy

    A crazy rollercoaster ride that will leave you wanting more. That's how I would describe this book; just when you get use to the direction you're headed you get dropped off a blind cliff and before you know it it's over. I must admit that the relationship between the two brothers is one that I really did love, and admire. I don't want to give anything away but OMG those brothers.....🔥🔥 

    I've read books by Yolanda Olson before but this is my first introduction to Michelle Pace's writing, but I will surely be looking into reading other books by her as well. These two writers together make a formidable duo. The only thing that I didn't like was the ending, and I'll just leave it at that. Stil I loved the main characters, the story line, and I am officially claiming Robbie and August as mine. #DibsOnTheGrantBros

    This story is good. I thought the ending was going to be different, but it's still good. The characters, storyline all fit together and It's a page turner.

    Invictus, is about three individuals who likes the demented side of things. They get into and do some strange, things that are creepy. While they are living the life of craziness, one of the has a secret that will put a new light on things.

    Yolanda is the queen of all things horror and this is the first time I'm reading words by Michelle,but with these two together, it's a dynamite punch.

    4.5/5

    I don't remember reading the blurb. I just remembering one clicking and diving in. Throughout the day, I was reading Invictus and wondering when crap was going to hit the fan. The characters were utterly crazy. I mean their crazy had no limit. It was absolutely infinite. There were two characters that I loved throughout the story. It didn't matter the change in their mood or the situations they were thrown in... I still loved August and Atasha. They weren't a couple. They were partners which made it even better. Tash was a strong willed. She didn't allow people to boss her around. The only person she was followed was August.

    August had a purpose. There was a method to his madness. And trust me, the man had some madness. The character I loved the least was Robbie. My god... I felt Tash's pain. I wanted to strangle him and thrown in the nearest river. August didn't seem to have a life. His brother was his life. The ending... I loved it but it left me with questions. I wanted more of Tash. I wanted to know what happened to the bleeping Scarecrow.

    Really enjoyed this book. It has the type of characters in it that are like your favourite soap opera characters, you cannot help but be invested in them and love them one minute, hate them the next, where one minute you are rooting for one person and then you gasp out loud at something they did and say "OH HELL NO" and start rooting for someone else instead! Nothing is as what it seems. I went in thinking the book was going to be one way and it turned into something else entirely, i love when a book does that to me. It will definitely keep you turning the pages but who will you root for?
