This series is mind blowing, and even more mind blowing on a second read. Melissa has a way of dropping hints, foreshadowing and easter eggs that you find will baffle you on a reread. I don’t understand how her mind works, but it’s clear in this book just how amazing it is.
She binds everything together seamlessly, and if you’ve read her other series Lady of Darkness before this one, the interconnections are just so beautifully written. This is a series you can theorise and look for clues in until you crumble, and I truly love it.
The characters have depth and grow and no one is perfect. There’s so much to unpack, and the mental health and trauma rep is exceptional.
I highly recommend this series to everyone!

Do I recommend this book: 👍
Will I read the next book in the series: 🤷♀️
Theon was back at it, acting like he ruled the world and making me want to throw my book across the room. His mood swings and the way he treated Tessa were downright infuriating.
I get it, Theon’s need for control comes from his twisted idea that control equals safety, and safety equals love. But seriously, his jerk behavior was just too much at times.
I did enjoy the side characters, and the story itself had potential. But the plot moved at a snail’s pace, and the ending left me feeling unsatisfied. Honestly, I’m on the fence about picking up the next book in the series.

I would highly recommend reading this book, and all of this author's work, if you like this genre. Melissa does a fabulous job of creating characters that are relatable and unique, living in layered, complex worlds.
This book was such an emotional rollercoaster! You will laugh and cry, love and hate, you will experience the full range of emotions reading this book. The characters in the book experience very REAL emotions, making them incredibly relatable. I love an author who can create complex main characters, characters who are not good or bad, but trying to make it through difficult situations. They don't always make the right choices, they will infuriate you, and you will love them (and the author) for it. You will not regret picking this one up!
Be sure to read the trigger warnings as there are some heavy topics in the book.
Lastly.... #teamLuka
