1st POV (present) / 2 POVs / medium-length chapters / Trigger warnings (TW) below
π° hot murderous vampires, orgasmic bite
π° fake dating, insta-lust
π° old gothic castle "This is a castle that has seen some shit"
π° murder mystery
π° "my wife" dirty talk
π° characters who actually know how to communicate "I didn't want to leave without giving him a chance to explain."
β€οΈβπ©Ή mental illness healing journey (PTSD, hoarding) β HUGE part of the story
πBook club: group of girly friends (who may or may not have superpowers and are (good) amateur detectives) who are always there for you. <3 I didn't know they had their own series!!
β I loved Alaric and how absolutely clueless he is when it comes to modern technology (and his passionate hatred for it), I'm also relieved that his speech reflected that and he actually talked like someone who's a few centuries old (in a good way βΊοΈ, my boy is trying his best). Also, his character growth was fantastic!
β I was really worried that I'll hate Winnie because she was this cringy clean queen but since we actually got to see beneath that superficial image, her character had depth and was very likable.
β I think the book has a good ratio of spice and plot and the pacing was perfect. I wouldn't classify it as erotica but a romance with explicit sexual scenes.
β The text messages at the beginning of each chapter were a genius idea!
β Can we PLEASE normalize the words dick and pussy? (shaft, swollen bud, mound,... give me the ick)
