The sex is great, but takes a while to get there.
The twists!
Most importantly, the love is so, so beautifully written. Honestly, all the emotions are beautifully written.

Emily McIntire strikes again! Forbidden love, strong FMC, and “I’ll burn the world for you” vibes really made this one for me. I enjoyed "Hooked" when I read it last year, but I think I ended up liking this one more! I will say, I think I need to start reading the physical books. Personally, I'm not a huge fan of this as an audiobook. I listened up to about 30% as the audiobook but wasn't getting into the storyline as much. Nothing against the VAs, I just sometimes don't connect the voices well to the characters and it kept taking me out of the story. But when I switched over to my physical copy, I enjoyed it way more!

Also, side note: Emily is such a nice human! I actually recently picked up my copy of "Scarred" because she lives close to me and did a little signed art card drop at a local Target and I was able to snag one! The art that she had done of Scar & Sara B. by the fountain is ✨stunning✨ and I loved having that visual while reading!

 After I read Hooked, I didn’t have high expectations for the ending. But boy was I wrong. Just like in Hooked I was invested from the get-go but not only did Scarred have a badass fmc but Tristan was so hot. James felt more edgy, and Tristan felt more realistic like a morally gray man and good lord did I fell in love with him. And yes, after Micheal died, Tristan did rule Gloria Terra, but he did something that I didn’t expect which was giving Simon the crown which just made me tear up. God, I loved this book so much. The ending didn’t feel rushed in actuality it felt perfect however I did feel as if Michael’s death just happened almost like the author wanted to get rid of him. I had hoped that Michael and Tristan would have a talk before he died but that didn’t happen. If it did, I would’ve given this book a 5 star. I also hated reading “milking” during the sex scenes but that’s just a peeve of mine. Other than that, I loved this book.

i adore slow burn enemies to lovers, but the old timey language and ideals bothered me (even though they were part of the time period). i’ll definitely be reading the other books in the series!

This book was significantly better than Hooked. The storyline, the characters, the audio narrators, the spice, everything improved. I really enjoyed Sara B's sassy attitude and her feministic personality despite it being the early 1900s. I had a hard time seeing a connection between Sara & Tristan before the church scene & felt there should have been more there. I also loved Tristan as a character. Honestly, the two of them were made for each other.
