DID NOT FINISH: 78%

Read the first book and said “yes I’ll finish the series” but nope I’m done!! 
Tessa and Theon and now Luka were killing me slowly! Tessa was the worst fmc in all the series I’ve ever read! Don’t get me started on Theon (major eye roll, not the shadow daddy I thought it was going to be) they bicker and fight all the time (not the fun kind) super stubborn characters that made the same mistakes over and over and over! Never got anywhere! 
The only reason I read it so far was because of Axel and Kat. I had to dnf this series couldn’t take it anymore! This is a either you absolutely LOVE it or HATE it!

★★★★☆ (4/5)

Wow, Storm of Secrets and Sorrow was a ride. This sequel dives even deeper into the chaos, and I couldn’t put it down. Tessalyn’s journey is intense—she’s constantly torn between survival, power, and the people trying to control her. The morally gray characters, especially Theon and Axel, kept me guessing the whole time.

The world-building? Stunning. Devram feels so real, full of magic, politics, and danger. The tension is insane—betrayal, secrets, and choices that could break everything. Some parts dragged a little, but honestly, the drama and high stakes made up for it. If you love dark fantasy with messy characters and even messier emotions, this one’s for you! Can’t wait to dive into the next book.

I hate this series and I can't stop reading it. Please make this stop. 

Story is unique I'll give it that. Both main characters suck major a**. However, like a bad penny it keeps ending up in my Kindle library. Will I read the third one. Yes. Will I be happy while I'm reading it. No. Enjoy!

Not continuing the series
