Atlas Black and his brothers, along with the whole serephs among us plot, gave me major Hush, Hush saga vibes - if the Hush, Hush novels had lots of spice and even more profanity. I found The Accidental Sereph to be a quick read, but Aurora managed to pack quite a bit of action into the shorter amount of pages. 


I was engaged with the plot from start to finish. Atlas and his brothers definitely held my attention throughout the story, and I'd love to see books/HEAs for each brother. I could totally get behind Ivy's story, and while she was more of less thrust into Atlas's world, it was easy to sympathize with her story and the journey she went on. 


I really liked Aurora's take on fated mates. It was a little different, but I enjoyed how it brought a whole new element to the story. It definitely made the story spicy, and I thought the story really picked up once Ivy accepted the world of serephs and demons and her place in that world. 


The Accidental Sereph was fast-paced, with great world building and the kind of insta-love you only find in a fated mates romance. I could've easily read another hundred pages of Ivy and Atlas's romance, and I can't wait to see what comes next from this family of serephs.
