I LOVED THIS BOOK!!! This book immediately had me interested when it was sold as witches in hiding making deals with one of the princes of hell to find her sister's murderer. I should have known after reading any of Maniscalco's books that this was going to be fantastic. The world building her was really interesting and I am looking forward to seeing how the story progresses with the fallout of book one's ending.
Maniscalco has both an amazing writing style and personality. I got to meet her for a book signing a couple years ago and she was the sweetest person! She is an instant buy author and that's not likely to change any time soon.

Pretty good, but I couldn’t get into it until 100 pages in. Wasn’t sure if I was going to read the sequel but was convinced by the time I finished to buy the next one.

I’m sorry but I thought this book was boring. I kept waiting for something to happen or for it to get better. The ending was so confusing as well. I wanted to like this book too

To be honest, it was a bit slow for my taste, which meant the end felt rushed. BUT! I feel better knowing there's a sequel coming out (which I've already gone and pre-ordered haha) I'm hoping that the sequel will round out the whole mystery because we are OBVIOUSLY still missing something.
I really liked Wraths character and would like to see more of him in the next book, although I'm excited to explore Pride as well. Emilia is turning out to be a firecracker of a character and it'll be interesting to see how she grows.

Such a fantastic start to a series. I didn’t expect this to be so dark and tense, but it really added to the book. The characters are flawed and the chemistry between Emilia and Wrath was so good.
