Think Venom but add some spice and tension into the mix! I loved this book so much and I am on the edge of my seat waiting (as patiently as possible) for book 3 to come out. This is a series that just keeps getting better!
I loved the urban fantasy setting that Debbie created, the characters were all fantastic, and the underlining plot kept me engaged in the mystery and action that was unfolding. I ordered the second book when I was just a few chapters in because I could already tell this book checked all the boxes for me.

♡No Spoilers♡
I had seen a Tik tok about this book being like a Venom vibe but make it romance. This book did not disappoint. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed the world and characters.
Synopsis: August is a rift walker, who is carrying an psychotic aberration inside of her. During the day Telarion resides inside of hers. But when the sun sets and the darkness consumes the sky. Telarion materializes outside of August’s body. August is desperate to rid herself of this monster who also craves freedom. Things become complicated when August learns the truth about her mothers past, and about the supernatural agency that wants to use August’s abilities to walk into the monster realm and provide them with information. In exchange they will help separate Telarion. Before August becomes a monster herself.
♡Overall:The chemistry and banter between Telarion and August was chefs kiss. The attraction and yearning is there, but August is fighting it with her entire being. It’s a slow burn and I just know that it’s going to pay off! The world is filled with magic and all kinds of beings; vampires, gargoyles, ghosts, etc. I really adored her inner circle which included her Uncle, her best friend and Archer who all work together to debunk or confirm hauntings and various other jobs. It gave me Scooby Doo vibes which I loved, and I am absolutely going to continue with this series. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants to jump into a unique world of magic and monsters.

Very interesting and different book! I really enjoyed the way this story goes.
FMC is a host to a monster, they start to have feelings for one another bc the monster is always there to help her in need.
The order is going to screw her over (not surprised) but I’m very interested to see what’s going on with Quinten as well.
Excited for the next book.

Another wonderful world...Again, Debbie Cassidy has created a world that I love to be engrossed in while reading. Her characters are so likable, relatable and the book just pulls you in!
