I kinda enjoyed this trilogy. Roberts is really good at writing characters with chemistry and fun sexy times. My only complaint is that the story seems to drag on a bit. When I realized that this was a trilogy of books bound into one it makes a bit more sense but I wish it was edited to not tell me what I read 4 pages ago when reading parts 2 and 3.  The book should say it is an omnibus. But it was otherwise a good read. There is more spice than plot and everyone has a fun time in this why choose series.  Roberts always does a great job with steamy fun times and this is no exception. Come for the vampires, stay for the....plot ;)

I didn't hate it, didn't absolutely love it, but it was semi likeable, there were good moments and kinda boring and repetitive moments too.

It was a really great book. There was an error that I picked up on earlier on that made following the rest of the chapter a little meh but overall couldn’t put it down

Horrible book. No story, only sex. The main character has no self worth and honestly, I found it tiring to hear her telling herself that she didn’t amout to nothing. I just wanted a girlboss that conquered her men by being powerful and charming and cunning. But she was none of them and she just met them because of Malachi and formed a bond with her seraph powers. So basically she was annoying and didn’t do anything.

Not a five star read because it didn't feel like it. Bu waw... Katee Robert you are my goddess >< SMUT NON STOP!!! I swear, every freaking chapter, only in the end did it calm down but waw! So... if you want a book with more plot and less sex, this isn't for you. But if you want non stop smut scenes and reverse harem then I totally recommend!
