Oh wow, what a nice surprise this book was! 

After seeing so much about it online, I got curious and decided to get my hands on it to give it a try: and I was right to do so! 

It did not take me too long to get pulled deep into the story and to get intrigued by the plot. I really like seeing how Jak and Marius got to interact with each other and learn more about their stories.

It was an interesting twist on the Beauty and the Beast tale: the magic aspect of it kept me intrigued as to how it would all turn out. But what I liked most was to learn more about Marius, even if I am still left wishing we got more depth on his past.

In short, this was a nice read that I finished in a couple of hours and would gladly pick up again to read again! Easy to understand and to get into!

For Jak’s whole life his has been trained to kill the beast that has consumed all of his coven’s power except his. Now it is time to meet the vampire Marius, except his story becomes much different than the one Jack was told. 

MLM romance, Blood Kink, 2 1/2 🔥

I can’t say this was a good book. The plot was painfully predictable and if you asked me to define Jack’s personality to you, I wouldn’t know how because it felt so inconsistent. 
However, this book cared about the chemistry between Marius and Jack. And boy, chemistry they had. Pretty much right from the beginning I knew they had the fire for an amazing enemies-to-lovers relationship. 
I enjoyed myself thoroughly reading this and exploring the possibilities of a gay beauty and the beast.
