What Kept/Didn’t Keep Me Reading:
The retelling and sea witch’s perspective was an intriguing point of view to read through. The drama between him and the two kings helped balance out the romance thematic with Averil. Averil’s character growth as she’s exposed more to the outside world, is a twisted coming of age kind of story. Putting it all together, it’s a page turner.

I plan to continue the For the Love of the Villian series.

Content Warnings
Moderate: Sexual assault
Minor: Rape
I didn’t like it. All of the main characters were selfish and self centered. The romance was kind of a dud because when it came to vengeance or love, we know which one the sea witch chose:
“Despite my anxiety for Averil, I can’t resist this moment of delicious revenge”
“I need to go to her. But I must finish this first, then find her voice.”
“I will kill Tarion, and then I will go to her. I can see to the creation of the new government later.”
Averil feel in love way too easily when the sea witch reveal almost nothing about himself, not even his name. I didn’t like the pet names “shrimp” and “sinner”
