Porn without plot.
Every plot point was quite predictable & this also early on.
Finished this in the hope to get one or more glimpses on my favourite characters but only got sex.
Two stars because there have been two characters I had been interested in.

Der Schreibstil ist sehr angenehm und das Buch liest sich wie von selbst. Die Story ist ebenfalls sehr interessant und man ist gespannt wie es weitergeht, der große Plottwist mit Isolde wirkte etwas gehetzt und dadurch irgendwie komisch.

frog_appreciator's review against another edition

3.5

I was expecting purely smut so was pleasantly surprised there was a plot as well. However the worldbuilding and execution was thin.The sex was hot and I appreciate how important consent was.

I do wish they didn’t fuck or “make love” when he finally drank her blood and all her memories came back. I think the moment would have been more intimate and special without sex.

Also the jealousy thing was a bit overdone and what was the need for his constant erection lmao. Another big thing was Isolde seemed to be meant to be a diverse character in the sense we were told she was but then she wasn’t written as such. It was mentioned once she was midsize(?)and then dropped, and she was only referenced as mixed race when talking about how people look at her funny.

Also struck me as icky that this nation of Black or Brown ppls only function in the narrative was to be enslaved, as something to be a big reveal to fuck with the MCs relationships? Like ooh they didn’t tell her that her ppl are enslaved like huh gross

Overall though I did enjoy reading it, despite being predictable, it was fun.
