5.0

The first book was about Lust and this one is about Greed and I’m trying to figure out how I love this book even more than first one. It’s one part Tomb Raider and another part The Mummy while being incredibly unique on its own.

The MMCs are an absolute delight with witty banter and sexual tension dialed to one hundred. Varya, our FMC, is a force to be reckoned with and Greed is questioning everything about who he is because as long as he has known, he could only be one thing which is greedy. Greed by the way is a redheaded himbo to the max and it makes me feral. 

While I feel these books can be read as a standalone I would highly recommend reading them in order because each book is about one of the seven deadly sins (*demons* in this case). It’s incredibly captivating, filled with adventure, steam, swoon worthy moments, and action.

You do get a glimpse at the next character which will be Gluttony and I’m so excited. He’s a soft emo boy.
