I loved this book! It was a little hard to follow in the beginning - trying to figure out who was talking/thinking; there is a weird use of pronouns (1st versus 3rd person) throughout the book. The story line was fun, a bit of a mystery, and a it had a good ending. Very spicy - written well. Kind of like a very grown up Twilight, except just vampires and werewolves (almost no humans). The romance part of the story builds and is primary to all the subplots. The characters have good arcs. Overall, a fun, spicy, paranormal romance.

This is a fantasy romance between a werewolf and a vampire, who are wed in order to create a peaceful alliance between traditional enemies. There is also a mystery regarding the main character’s best friend who is missing without a trace. There is very graphic sex, including mild kink. There were several joking references to suicide and self harm.

Moderate: Ableism, Self harm, Suicidal thoughts

The author used several words that are stigmatizing from a mental health perspective, such as bonkers, unhinged, and losing one’s mind. There were also several jokes about taking one’s life, and some references to self harm.
