Synopsis:
Jak has been raised with one mission: to kill the creature and restore magic to his coven. But when he’s finally meets the creature, his mission becomes less clear. His heart gets involved. Will he be able to kill the being he’s falling for? Or will he suffer the same fate as every claim before him?

Review:
This was a wild ride. The more I learned about the creature aka Marius, the more I wanted to dive deeper into this world. Both Jak and Marius are complex characters and enjoyed getting into their relationship more. Through the library scenes, I wanted to learn more about past claims and their stories. The story picked up tremendously at the climax and end. It kept me so engaged. The twist at the end. Not to spoil anything, but I love the “you done f*cked up and now you bout to get it” ending. My one critique is that I thought this would be way more smutty that it is, but still a solid recommend!

I liked everything about this Book. Except for the last one and a half chapters.
In the second to last chapter, I had a „really? This is how it ends? I didn’t expect that and I love that!“ moment. Then it goes on to turn around and make me go „oh yeah here it is, this is what I figured would happen“. Which dampened the amount of joy I had while reading. Additionally: The way the characters acted in the last chapter felt very out of place to me.

But honestly? I’m kind of whining about my own high standards and things that I would’ve preferred a little different Plot-wise. Someone else will surely love this ending  just the way it is.
