Damn...that was a good read. Major Beauty and the Beast vibes...which I LOVE. The characters were fun, especially the secondary characters, we get action, romance, a mystery...and so much more. I'll definitely be jumping right into book two 🤭

2.5

I'm very confused on where this is going. 

Recap

Rose is human, has a shitty life, mom left when young, dad went crazy thinking she was taken by fae, her high school bf Lucas was abusive. She lands in the fae realm falls for the princes who have been cursed. Kel forces her back to human world. Sounds like Kel wont admit the mating bond cuz if he does she'll be given to the prince of thorns (evil). But hes also her mate but only he knows it.
