THIS BOOK. WOW. i am so upset that it took me this long to start this series bc i already know i'm going to become extremely obsessed with it. it's amazing. it was dark, mysterious and everything i needed in a dark romance book. michael and rika were both amazing. i also loved the other horseman, well, besides one.. i was not a fan of damon but i'm told he redeems himself so i look forward to seeing how. but KAI? oh i love kai. i wanted to cry for kai. 

the little twists were insane and i really didn't see them coming to the point where my jaw literally dropped! i loved every second of this book and had so much fun! 

i can't wait to continue this series really soon!

Toxic relationship, SA triggers, assault. He burns down her literal house and she is just so fine about that. It's gotta be a "No" from me dawg, sorry.

quick read and kept me hooked. only liked Alex and Kai towards the end. Damon can go to hell idc. didn't appreciate the sexism and sexual assault at all. if the men in this book were a little less fucked up it would be perfect.

Le personnage féminin est intéressant, fort, mais l’amour entre Rika et Crist paraît assez peu crédible sur la fin du roman… Le personnage de Damon semble presque excusé à la fin, ce qui est dérangeant
Mais le suspense est très bien maintenu, on a envie d’aller au bout du roman.
