Tarnished Cages (Sequel to Gilded Cages)

Gilded Cages Series, Book 2

By: R. Phoenix

Narrated by: Zachary Zaba

“He could have everything here, and the price is so small. Why would he want to go back out into that cold, unforgiving world?”

It’s simple, really. Zay has a roof over his head, food in his stomach, no bills or jobs to worry about, and he gets to lie around all day. It should be the perfect life for him, and it would be...if it wasn’t for the fact that he has to play the role of a two-legged “puppy” for his captor and his captor’s little. Zay’s unwillingness to accept his new life breeds doubt and discontent in Cammy, who’s longed for an end to his loneliness. Even though they should be bonding, the distance between them seems larger than ever. Cammy wants Zay to see how fortunate he is, but will it be Cammy who has his own revelations instead?

1 I hate to love

The author has a profound understanding of sex traffickers and the mind games played to keep the victims subdued.

Like many true victims of abductions, the Stockholm syndrome the two "boys" go through is so disturbing yet I couldn't help feeling for them due to the helpless they felt under the hand of their "Master".

I found myself hoping that Ray would get his vengeance on his "Master", but like so many victims, the shame of what he has went through and the threats keeps him in check. The "Masters" warped view of saving Ray is so disturbing and infuriating since if their were no buyers of people there would be no traffickers.

This story is very well written and the narrator is superb, but read at your own risk.

book 2 - this didn't disappoint

Book 2 was fantastic. Zachary is really an amazing narrator. I loved how the dynamic changed between the 3 characters. There is no way you can be disappointed with this sequal.

Loved it

I need to know more I love the darkness and the care great balance and I just want more of the couples tell me what happened To master and if zay will stay

EExquisitely painful

There is something horrifically beautiful about this series. I hope there is a third entry soon.

DNA changed

I just don't know what I can say about this duet. It was heartbreaking and erotic and happy ish. R Phoenix is amazing with the way this book was written. The narrator did an amazing job at doing three characters. Just wow and amazing lover every bit
