this is a guilty pleasure comfort read type of series with asshole faes.
it might not be everyone's cup of tea. but it's good in a bad way. it was in my tbr and i wondered why so i started to read them and don't regret it. they're gripping because you want to know what happens next. also the spice is good. not a lot but it's written well. the magic system is interesting and not something I've seen before.

omega's review against another edition
Found the bullying and whole “toxic situation to be dealt with” a bit too much and just tiring for being kinda exaggerated and never actually dealt with, losing any enjoyment of the characters getting over it.
And mostly got truly fed up of them calling the 4 main boys hot and pretty while they where ABSOLUTELY HORRIFIC PEOPLE that don’t deserve ANY positive attention, so I didn’t understand the need for so much unnecessary and inappropriate constant comments about how hot the pieces of shit were.

As for characters, the twins can be likeable in their own ways. Tory the rebel with a sassy attitude and fierce protection of her sister, and Darcy the sweet one that still takes no shit from anyone. I found that I expected them to spend more time trying to build on their powers since they knew so many people wanted to cause them harm, but instead they got distracted by the gorgeous assholes that were the ringleaders of their misfortunes. Sophia is just wonderful, sweet and smart and a dedicated friend, Diego is also protective and caring to the twins.
Now to the unlikeable characters. I’ll start with Orion, since it’s kind of a battle between hating him and liking him throughout the book. I think he has some redeeming qualities and keeps most of his icy cold attitude to weather the storms of the cruel fae world. As for the heirs, all of them are spoiled, self righteous, narcissistic assholes that have ZERO redeeming qualities that can save them. Their cruelty and savagery are too thick for any other qualities that could set them part from each other to show through.
I am very interested to see where the authors take the Vega twins from here, and to see what may be lying beneath (if there IS anything) the heirs and Orion.
On to Book 2!
