I’m not gonna lie. This one took a while for me to decide my feelings on it. But in the end I did really love this one! I loved the growth in the characters and at first I hated that I didn’t know anything about the Lords but by the end I actually thought it was a great choice to experience it that way! I did think there were a few too many twists but they were all fleshed out and made sense that it didn’t take away at all. Still a wonderful read and I will be continuing this series!

Realised i didn't rate this. Still will not be rating this. I personally, like some plot with my smut. Also.. i like some romance and chemistry in my dark ROMANCE. Instead all i got was the taste of cardboard.

....Ryat was kinda cute though but also go Blake *pat on the back* for putting up with him miss girl.

Okay i'm back. Maybe i'll rate it 2 stars.
