I mean Siren b2b Dark Powerful King b2b Wings b2b Magically Binding Bargains????? Come on the concept was speaking to my soul from the get go.
The dual time perspective in each chapter gave me insight, similarly to how a prequel would?? so I could see right when certain moments affected Callie then vs. in the present. I was 50/50 on how I felt about that. It felt like miscommunication, but upon completion I had better perspective & understanding.
Does the dialogue get a little gushy and corny at parts? Yes!! But if liking that’s a crime, cuff me because I ate it up.
I also have an aversion to a blonde MMC- not my type - but Desmond Flynn, there’s a first for everything.

Jesus what a good book. It makes me want to recommend it to anyone who enjoyed ACOTAR. It has supernaturals, a couple of courts, bad boys, wings, a bit of spice.. ugh
Sure, the characters are problematic but did that stop me? ofc not, i really ate this up
As the first book in a trilogy I feel like It sets up the next book really well while still having a plot to enjoy.
I wish we could've had a bit more worlbuilding on Desmonds side of the world, but I also guess we'll get it in the second book..?
Over-all I really enjoyed it so so much. Will be reading the next one ASAP
