If Gemini has a million fans, I am one of them. If Gemini has one fan, it’s me. If Gemini has no fans, I am dead.

Naomi really smashed it out of the park with this book. I feel like it might have been written specifically for me. I’m a huge Buffy girlie and I was obviously Spike obsessed so this book spoke to me on a very primal level.

It was kinky, it was slutty, it somehow was still a slow burn, and it was of course the darkest of romance.

Gemini is the servant to the god of mischief who lets his intrusive thoughts win out on how best to wooh his new obsession.

Veil is a thief from a neighboring town who has unwillingly found herself a participant in the Feast of Fools celebrations and subsequently the subject of Gemini’s desire.

This book is book #2 in the Perverse City series and while I do think you would have a much better understanding of the world reading A Dance Macabre first, you could probably read this as a stand-alone.
