Great story, great characters, great family bonds, great emotions, great sex scenes and great writing.
I always LOVE to read the second book of my beloved previous couple. I've been so crazy for Cress and King since Lessons in Corruption, and again, I'm amazed by them in their second book.

Also, I found Daylight by Taylor Swift surprisingly and perfectly fit for them!
There's the lyrics of Daylight and why:

I don't wanna look at anything else now that I saw you (LITERALLY Cress and King's first sight)
I don't wanna think of anything else now that I thought of you
I've been sleeping so long in a 20-year dark night (Cress's life before meeting King)
And now I see daylight, I only see daylight (They're each other's daylight)
Maybe you ran with the wolves and refused to settle down (the Fallen MC and the threat force)
Maybe I've stormed out of every single room in this town
Threw out our cloaks and our daggers because it's morning now
It's brighter now, now

And I can still see it all (In my mind)
All of you, all of me (Intertwined)
I once believed love would be (Black and white)
But it's golden (Golden) (Just like King's gorgeous hair. OMG I'm sobbing)

I wanna be defined by the things that I love
Not the things I hate
Not the things that I'm afraid of, I'm afraid of
Not the things that haunt me in the middle of the night
I, I just think that
You are what you love (Cress and King freed and shared each other)

In a word, I fuckin' love this book. Me reading the epilogue was like: FUCK YEAH!
