Just please keep Vane safe because I adore the Dark One. This second installment made me far more attached to Vane, Peter, and Winnie. The twins aren’t by cup of tea, but I’m excited to see what happens next!

This one was definitely more plot heavy but for some reason just didn’t like as much. Plus why are these books so short…?

Again, without the spice it wouldn’t be worth reading. Although the plot idea is cool and much more developed than in the first book, it really is just erotica with a sprinkle of fantasy.
