God of Pain by Rina Kent is a dark, gut-wrenching romance that’ll tear you apart and leave you begging for more. Annika Volkov, the bubbly, ballet-loving princess of the Russian Bratva, has spent her life sheltered by her overprotective brother Jeremy (God of Wrath). When she enrolls at King’s U, she’s drawn to Creighton King, a brooding, tattooed fighter from the rival Elites with a tragic past that’s left him emotionally scarred and craving pain—both giving and receiving. Their forbidden romance starts with Annika’s relentless pursuit of Creigh’s icy heart, but his sadistic streak and her family’s mafia ties turn their love into a dangerous game. Think intense, kinky spice (that whipping scene!), raw vulnerability, and a betrayal that hits like a sledgehammer. The 450-page standalone weaves Creighton’s trauma with Annika’s fight for freedom, tying to God of Malice with cameos from Killian and Glyndon, though some fans say the pacing’s uneven or Creigh’s coldness feels too extreme, while others praise Annika’s sunshine energy and the epic grovel. TikTok’s wild for this “sadist meets ray of light” vibe, and the Brighton Island setting adds gritty flair.

Who Should Read It? This is for dark romance fans who love forbidden, sadist-meets-sunshine tropes, readers craving mafia drama with heavy emotional stakes, or anyone hooked on Rina Kent’s Legacy of Gods or Royal Elite world. If you vibed with God of Malice or Haunting Adeline and can handle triggers like BDSM, violence, trauma, and dub-con (check Kent’s trigger warnings!), this standalone’s a must—though God of Malice context helps. If you dislike intense kink or cold heroes, skip it—it’s dark and unapologetic.
