The first half of this book was sooooo good. The second half was 200 pages too long. Ughhh. 

This series was the ultimate enemies to lovers. Wow I really thought I wouldn’t love Raihn again. I thought he was beyond forgiveness. 

I’m so glad they came back to Vincent’s story and oraya realized he wasn’t the devil, just a victim of the past. That he did overcome so much. I do wish he wasn’t so villainized. He did a lot wrong, but so did Raihn. 

The first book and first half of this book felt very original, but the second half was predictable from the first book and felt unoriginal, like it was just copies of other series.
