This book is horribly written. Gross. Poorly constructed, bad character development, even the spicy scenes were just yuck. Just terrible. I can't believe this is popular.

Rating: 4.5 This was a very captivating read. I picked it up on a whim to get out of my book slump and let me tell you...it sure did the trick. First things first, the main character. She is an absolute badass. Doesn't hold back her thoughts. She is the first to jump in and save the day. She is exactly the heroine I've been dreaming of for a book.
I could go into a whole tangent about Nyfain and his glorious body, but I'll leave that for another day. However; I do want to mention that I completely love their dynamic. I believe they thrive off each other's energy and I'm all here for it.
The world in this book is amazing and something I can't wait to learn more about. Shifters are something I haven't seen a lot in the books I read and it is absolutely fascinating to me. I'm ready to dive deeper into this series!

It was just not my type of book. It was honestly just a bit ridiculous and the sex scenes were so strange. It may be someone elses cup of tea.

Bizarre situation with the demons.
Clever retelling, I liked the change up with shifters and magic.

I’m actually surprised to say, I want to continue this series and see what happens.

I enjoyed Finley’s POV, she had some funny lines for sure. Her “animal” was also a likable aspect to her character.

Nyfain is a complex guy. I’m here for the moody and broody alpha.

Other than that, the book was so-so. I think the last 25% was the best.

I read this on Kindle Unlimited. There were a couple things about the writing I wasn’t a fan of, like the weird internal monologuing Finley did in her mind described in the beginning. Also, I know it’s fantasy but what time period does this take place, it feels so mixed, there’s very basic old sounding cloth clothes but then there’s also jeans? With belt loops? And modern day sayings and phrases. It kind of took you out of the story immersion.
