Every story has a beginning.
This is theirs.

Evie 
You should always be prepared for things to get worse.
That's what he'd told me.
I didn't listen.
I should have known how things were going to turn out.
From the first moment I looked into Lucas King's 
angry baby blues, filled with torment and vengeance,
and aimed straight for me.

Lucas  
Her first mistake was she was at the wrong place at the wrong time.
Her second mistake was she didn't listen.
I'd warned her.  I'd told her I was going to take everything from her.
I did.  Things she could only give once.
All of it was mine.
She belonged to me the instant I saw her.
She was a good girl.
Too bad I was going to ruin her.

This isn't a fairy tale.  It's a story about a boy who made himself king, and his obsession.

OUR THOUGHTS
Gripping - Emotional - Raw

Lucas is that anti-hero. 
The one we absolutely despise. 
The one who's darkness calls to us.
The one we believe we can save.

Forged by the immorality of humanity - 
Angry at a world that plays favorites -
Betrayed by the petty and greedy -
He takes all that hate and rage and bottles it. 
Uses it to fuel his retribution. 
He has a plan. It is perfect. 
Until Evelyn. 
Until the day a Storm tears apart his very foundation.

Evelyn
The perfect sister. 
The perfect caretaker. 
The perfect daughter. 
Despite all the tragedy that had befallen her world she still radiates a kindness, an innocence that seems to encompass those around her. 
And her laughter -
She was the perfect Storm ~ and she needed to be quelled. 

I loved and loathed Lucas all at the same time.
He was so angry at the world. I understood his pain a bit more as the story progressed and the layers that were Lucas were peeled away. It by no means justified the cruelty and debasement that he dealt out like candy, but it did give motive.
Evelyn, my heart truly broke for her. She was trying so hard to be so many things. At first for me, she came across as a bit naive but I was wrong. So wrong. She is the Storm that Lucas touts her to be. 

Catalano sets the foundation with The Making of a King. 
Lucas' need to destroy the light that is Evelyn.
The acts of jealousy that would fuel the betrayals (this is a tissue moment!)
The one decision that would rip apart their world birthing the monster that Lucas would become. 
We get to meet the key players. Some on a very personal level, others we only get glimpses of, not enough to know if they are part of the problem or part of the solution. 

As I have come to expect from Catalano's writing we are left dangling on a precipice of needing more. 
One taste just wasn't enough.
This is a wine (I required Vodka, just saying) and tissue read.
It takes the reader beyond the darkness.
I have so many questions

Need book two now!
