Angela has done it again. If she isn’t in your romantasy favorites I don’t know what you’re doing. 

Carolina and Lalo burned so bright and so hot and I need an extended epilogue asap. One of the best things that can come from an enemies to lovers is that once they are together they’re essences don’t change. Carolina remained as stubborn and fearless and fierce and Lalo stayed the most lovestruck, protective, and loyal partner and brother. 

I knew A Cruel Thirst would have an HEA but ooh Angela made sure we were stresssssed first. Heart in my throat for most do the book kind of stressed, couldn’t stop reading. 

Yes this was a romance but the role that family and ancestors play should not be diminished. We can carry their burdens, consciously or not, but we also must carry their love and hope for us.
