3,75/5
J’ai lu ce tome 2 jours après avoir fini le tome 1 étant donné la fin de ce dernier qui m’a tellement intrigué je voulais savoir la suite.
Cependant, j’ai trouvé le début un peu lent et je n’étais pas à fond dans l’histoire. On a pas mal de mystères et de secret entre les différents personnages et du coup on a un manque de communication de leur part qui peut être un peu énervant parfois.
Le triangle amoureux est ici très présent et du coup on a pas mal de moment entre Zayne/Layla ou alors Roth/Layla. Zayne dans ce tome 2 est trop protecteur et trop autoritaire, dès qu’un danger apparaît il veut l’écarter sans qu’elle discute et il veut qu’elle obéisse, ce côté de Zayne m’a un peu soulé.
Alors que Roth la prévient des différents dangers mais la prend pas pour une chose fragile qui ne sait rien faire et lui laisse prendre ses propres décisions.
Abbot, le chef du clan des gardiens qui a recueilli Layla enfant est insupportable, il accuse Layla de tout ce qu’il se passe sans chercher à la comprendre et la diabolise au possible.
L’intrigue quant à elle nous laisse dans le doute jusqu’à la fin du tome, ce que j’ai beaucoup aimé parce que je n’ai pas deviné les retournements de situations ou les révélations à l’avance.
La fin annonce un troisième tome qui se promet d’être rempli d’action et de révélations en tout genre.

I don't think I've ever been so completely torn over a pair of guys in my entire life. I really wanted her with Roth. Like so bad that I tried to hate Zayne. But I couldn't. So I was just was messed up as Layla in a way. This book! OMG. The feels. My heart literally flitted around in my chest so much I was afraid I'd have a permanent arrhythmia (erratic heartbeat).

Favorite characters: Roth, of course, and Bambi, the demon familiar who is a moving, slithering, snuggling tattoo while on the body and a man-sized, man-eating python while off the body. Because who doesn't need one? :-) Looking forward to the final in the trilogy.

*NO MAJOR PLOT SPOILERS WERE HARMED IN THE MAKING OF THISREVIEW*
“Love is a strange creature one thinks one has a grasp on and understanding of, only to discover later that it was only the barest taste of the real thing."
Danggg that cliffhanger, I feel sorry for the people who had to read that and not have the next book immediately ready to start. This book was pretty good for the most part. It picked up where the first left off, and it has the same writing flow and undertones. I was a bit pissed at a certain character but just like layla, i was confused about my feelings for them. To be honest, it felt like I was in a twilight fanfic where bella is stuck between jacob and edward, and trying to figure out who she wanted, etc, and how each guy shows her how it would be with them and yada yada. I am definitely on a certain team, but idk, the guy I usually picks doesnt get the girl :/...
Layla is just trying to figure out how to deal with everything and now there are more issues and goodness just give the girl a break...But I admire her resilence and strength and just desire to be a person, without all the crap around her head and all the pressure. She just wants to be able to freely kiss a guy my god.
Zayne...I feel like his feelings are wishy wash. i think...he does care, but, idk, I definitely think he would be the type to coddle and hide his woman, instead of letting her be a badass when desired. He is a protector, and there is nothing wrong with that. But...layla doesnt need protecting. She needs a warrior to stand beside her, not shield her. I think Zayne definitely cares, but...at what cost?
Roth, my man. I have a few bones to pick with you. I had a feeling you were complex, and since I have read JLA, i knew something was off. You are intriguing and goodness me I do like them bad bois. And you are literally....yeah. Aha, butI swear the heartache, my man...just own up to some free will for once, eh?
Alright, this is all my ramblings, if you want your own, read the book.

Even more twisty and dark than the first. The further you go in the more and more you fall in love with the universe and characters so real it’s hard to believe it’s a story. Chefs kiss.
