This was a strange tale of grooming, with a selfish and relatively weak FMC. The plot was interesting enough, I literally just couldn’t get past the grooming.

This dark romance, fantasy really does have a great premise of mystery to it. I think the world building of the Otherworld has moments of needing clarity, but I found it to be  most enchanting at the same time. The characters flash back sequences allow for much better relationship building, and allows for an easier read. It truly does give second change romance, however the reasoning for the second chance did fall flat.

I loved this book! I fell in love with the characters and couldn't put it down! The world was rich in character, and the plot was well balanced between internal and external conflicts for the characters.
