There’s better M/M romance and there’s better smut out there. Mostly a snooze fest.

Loved the Character growth and development. The plot is carefully plotted in such a way to force Damian and even Laurent to make decisions they wouldn't normally make. Character driven with lots of romance suspense building in a surprising way. I look forward to reading the next installment and seeing how the Author continues to push and pull the characters into one another.

3/3,5⭐
J'ai lu ça en début d'année, j'ai oublié de le mettre dans mes livres lus...
Et en vrai, c'est pas mauvais ! Mais c'est horrible. L'univers est affreux.

*slams fist on table* WHEN WILL LAMEN BE CANON
Ok tbh I have mixed feelings about this I’m not sure if I liked the book as much as I liked Damen and Laurent but most of the time this is what happens when I start a trilogy
This happened with TFC as well, I wasn’t sure if I LOOOVED it and I was IN LOVE with it when I was done with the second book so yeah I feel like this was just a warm up and I'm pretty sure I will love the other books better. I have high expectations for Kings Rising.
I will probably write a long review after I'm done with the series.
I also read between the lines, my heart is aching for Laurent (can i call you bby? no? okay.). The part where Damen saw Laurent while he was reading just HIT me, it was so beautiful but no I have to stay strong - what is to come will hurt me more I know.
ALSO I’m really happy I didn’t read this in 2012 it would be a torture to wait lol

this is the lowest i’ve ever rated a book and i think it’s deserved at how much times i had to sigh and take a quick walk around my house
