[I listened to this as an audiobook]

I really enjoyed this book. In fact, I liked it more than the first book in the series.

The dual narration was great for the MCs. While the side characters did have different tones, I felt (as with book one) that the voices weren't hugely different though. Different enough to notice, but maybe not quite enough for me to always know exactly who was talking before their name was brought up.

The secrets, betrayal, and intrigue were perfect! I did have a couple of 'told you so' moments with the FMC, but I also felt she had some great character growth towards the end, which I loved!

The ending was not what I was expecting! I didn't see it coming, but absolutely loved it.

I cannot wait to listen to book three!



💢 𝙏𝙒𝙨: Violence, mild gore, sexual scenes


☆I received an ALC of this book from the authors, Dreamscape Media, and NetGalley. All thoughts are my own honest opinions.☆

I loved the first book in the series, and this one did not disappoint! I was lucky enough to get an ARC for the audiobook. 

I liked the narrators, and since I always have audiobooks on a higher speed I appreciated that they were easy to listen to. 

The story developed at a nice pace, and I really like the writing. Will 100% continue this series.
