Witchy twins Emilia and Victoria who grew up living amongst humans in Sicily. Stories told by their nonna about demons, legends and spells become too real when Emilia discovers Victoria murdered. Overcome with grief Emilia need for vengeance leads her into pairing with her enemy a Prince from Hell. 
In the beginning I will admit I wasn’t too sure if I was going to finish. It started very slow for me and falling into very YA category with character/world building. Once it started to pick up speed and get more of a slow burn enemies to lovers vibe, I didn’t want to put the book down. I enjoyed the growth of Emilia and her determination even in the face of some dangerous demons. I’m intrigued to see if we dive more into Wrath backstory or even some of his POV. Looking foward to see what the series will bring.
