Sexy, gory, and exciting, this book had me hooked from beginning to almost the end. I started getting fed up with the LI and that will probably keep me from reading the sequels. But I flew through this one despite the length! Maybe after a brief cool down period I'll be inspired to pick the next one up.

Not usually a fantasy typa b but I picked this book up because who doesn't love a good body guard trope<3??? This book deals with a lot of important and serious topics but overall ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS BOOK.  I downed this book so fast and dove right into the second one and cannot wait for the third and fourth. A really long book, but totally recommend if a 600+ page book is fine for you!!!

I actually enjoyed this book so much. There were many things that I saw coming but one I didnt and that was the end. 
It's been a day since I finished reading it and I haven't stopped thinking about it so, had to get the others. I don't know what to say without spoiling so...
I gave it a 4.5 rating but it might change.

If you plan on reading this, you should definitely look for a list of Trigger Warnings. It's really important.

This book is so amazing and if i could give more than 5 stars I would. The actual plot is pretty slow and there’s a lot of build up to the conflict but I think I it was necessary to address the characters, their trauma, and flaws before moving on to the action problems they have to deal with. My favorite this is how real and relatable the characters are and their emotions. No one is perfect and they don’t claim to be. They admit to their flaws and don’t move past major things as if they hadn’t happened.

the banter between poppy and Hawke was EVERYTHING!! loved that!!
I had a feeling something was up with hawke from pretty early on so the twist wasnt that shocking to me but it was still fine. the whole vampire werewolf thing is not really for me but it was fine. think im gonna read the others as well
