I absolutely adored this book. It reads a bit like a noir detective novel in some ways, which is so different, and yet it just works so well for the characters. (I will preface this by saying I read the book as one whole novel, though these are actually three separate books in a series.)
Vivian is an incredibly fun main character. She’s a newly turned vampire who can’t remember her name or anything else about herself, but she doesn’t let that get her down. She’s got a fun loving, fiery spirit and she doesn’t let anyone dim her sparkle. Granted, she does go through a lot and there’s amazing character growth and trauma rep, but I loved that she wasn’t one to be kept down by other people’s expectations of her….only her own.
And Grim…OMG. Is there a more perfect shadow daddy book boyfriend? I don’t think so. He was sexy and amazing in every way. Loved the whole ‘enemies to lovers’ relationship they had at first, even if it was short lived.
I also really enjoyed the Egyptian god aspect of this. I haven’t read a ton of romance books that use them, but I actually know a bit about them (And I’ve watched too much Stargate lol) and I loved the way they were written in this.
This book has really good side characters, there’s mystery and action, great dialogue and banter and seriously steamy moments between the two main characters. This is the definitely the kind of book I’d read again.
