This was yet another great launching point for a wonderful new Jennifer Armentrout series. Great suspense and tension and just an overall good style of writing. It follows a similar blueprint to her other series, but I literally do not care because it's just such a unique and interesting take on all the typical fantasy tropes.

This is just a disappointing book tbh. If you are here for smut sure its fine, but if you are here for plot or character development look somehere else. Could not tell you a single thing about the MMC other than he had magic aphrodesiac sperm  that undermines the frequent conversations about consent.

I couldn’t put this story down, but I also couldn’t quite give it 4 stars. I wish the plot had fleshed itself out a little more, and I also wish our FMC had more insight and wasn’t so oblivious. Felt like the ending was rushed, and though I appreciate a good cliffhanger, our questions were left with only half answers. I do love the way JLA writes romance and spice! It was *hot* and I appreciated the dynamic between the FMC and the side characters.

4.5

I reallllllly liked this book. It kept my attention the whole time. I would be working and thinking of this book, would wake up in the morning excited to find time to read this book. I can’t tell you what exactly it is about it that I love so much. This book has me in a trance and I NEED more NOW! When is the second book being released?!?!?!?!? HELP ME I NEED IT
