worse book i’ve read in a while! the writing feel sloppy, there is more plot holes than plot and the setting is so poorly described. supposedly these things improve in the second book but i don’t know how you could finish the first one and willing choose to pick up the second or third which supposedly leave you with more questions and more plot holes.

This book hooked me from the start with its gorgeously dark, witchy atmosphere, fast-paced dialogue, and just the right touch of intrigue. The vivid descriptions of food and the warmth of Emilia’s family life—especially the scenes in their family restaurant, Sea & Vine—sparked serious cravings for Italian cuisine.
Emilia, an Italian witch raised in a loving household, is thrown into a darker world after her twin sister’s murder. While her grief and distrust toward Wrath are understandable, I often found myself frustrated by her approach to investigating the mystery. Running headfirst into danger without a plan, protection, or backup—and then being annoyed at Wrath for saving her—made it difficult to fully connect with her choices.
Still, the story’s charm and the slow-burn dynamic between Emilia and Wrath kept me intrigued. I have mixed feelings overall, but the ending left me curious enough to pick up the next book and see where the story leads.

Emilia and Vitoria are twin sisters who are witches with amulets that can never be brought together.
When Vittoria is found dead with her heart ripped out, she summons the prince of Wrath to find out what happened. (Not a spoiler as you find this out at the very beginning) Along the way she finds out all these secrets that were kept from her. A lot of secrets revealed in this and I can’t wait to see how book two goes!
