Memorable human dramas on film are quite rare with me, as such selective a viewer that I am. Mayhap it's my seeking escapism in the art I consume, or the fact my life experience have left me a little 'bored' with the small, trivial and daily dramas we're all surrounded by.

I rarely find an 'action-free' or non-Sci-Fi, non epic-narrative drama which truly pulls me into its narrative. The narrators did a great job of bringing out the personalities of the characters as well as the suspense and romance of the storyline.As a rule, 'small'-'human' dramas are not my first choice as a genre, not in books, not in theaters, not on TV, nor on the big screen. I enjoyed the evolution of both these characters as Ren shows how strong and resilient she truly is while Quinton has gone from being her biggest enemy to a man who will do anything to keep her safe. Ren and Quinton take us on dark and suspenseful journey filled with secrets, surprises and a love most unlikely.

He is methodical and unwavering as he believes that it is the only way that Ren will truly be able to heal. Quinton is a man on a mission who is determined to exact vengeance from every person who has hurt the woman he loved. She is trying to pick up the pieces and reclaim the person she used to be however she has a very small support system as Quinton can’t always be there for her when she needs him the most. Ren is devastated after having to experience a traumatic event that will forever change who she is. Broken Kingdom is a gripping romance and a terrific addition to the series, one I'll wholeheartedly recommend. They honed in and captured the nuances and intricacy of personalities and emotions, bringing the story and the characters to life. Phenomenal performances by Zara Eden and Connor Brown. Note that there are some triggering scenes, and not faint of heart. Broken Kingdom is so worth the listen, and I advise you to read/listen to the series in order. As for his motives, they are as complex as he is. Quinton leaves his mark, scarring her with the hurt he induces. She stands resilient and grows stronger with every unforeseen hit. Aspen is once again tested she is confronted with heartbreak and one obstacle after another. The story is compelling and wrapped in intrigue, drama, suspense, heat, and passion, cloaked in darkness. My emotions surged while listing to events unfold. The story picks up right where Drop Dead Queen left off. Broken Kingdom, the third instalment of the Corium University, is a brilliantly written and captivating new adult bully/mafia romance.
