Now about the book. Holy **** (fill with what you will). I could not put this book down. I devoured it in a day. I fell in love with the banter between the two main characters. Adeline is sassy and has a mouth that would make a sailor roll over in their grave. Z is mysterious and dark. Even though he may do some bad things, the good he does outshines that and makes me love him even more. While the romance and smut too about 1/6 of the book (not that I'm complaining), the plot was used to enhance the story and kept me entranced.
I felt like a little kid again reading this book into the night when I should've been asleep. I already ordered the second book of the duet and will devour it just as fast as the first. H.D. Carlton, you have my heart, and I plan to read everything I can that you have written.

Please, for the love of Zade (haha), check the trigger warnings.
Now for boring book review stuff: I will say that the characterization of our two main characters was pretty flat and one note, I'm hoping the next book will give us some more of their personalities outside of just their sex lives.
