Don't bother reading this. Apart from finding several typos, this book was also not well written. The characters were contradicting themselves at each turn. There was barely any plot and no development of actually personalities. The treatment of the main character is literally just abusive and there are no redeeming qualities to her either.

Short and quick read to get you out of a reading slump. I like the idea of the book and thought it had great potential I would have liked to see more plot development instead of just the same thing over and again.
I loved Evren at the beginning right up until he just stood there and watched Gavril feed from her and did nothing to stop him. And all the lies and secrets I get he’s just met Adara and doesn’t owe her anything but she feels like she can trust him and he just blatantly broke her trust. And then again when they were attacked by the blood court. He could have just told her I understand why he didn’t. I really hope he redeems himself in the next book he has so much potential for the morally grey bad boy we all love
