4.5

This book is definitely dark AND taboo. The main characters are foster siblings and not blood related  (that is a very important distinction, and if you have ANY reservations about it this is NOT the book for you). 

That said… I thought Leigh Rivers told Olivia and Malachai’s story very well and did a great job with the characters. The spice was really well written and helped to progress the characters respective development as well. I devoured book one in a day and cannot wait to see what happens in book two!
