My thoughts can be summed up with: this is emotional destruction of the most delicious kind. 💔

~~

I made a note halfway through: When he's the one "who did this to her!" 🤬 My fuck this is emotional I've cried twice and I'm at 50%. I could fucking k ill Rennick. 

I think my cry count ended up being 4 - I'm not a crier. The last one was Onyx Storm (IYKYK 💛) and before that I can't remember - However I was sobbbing at points in this book. 

Idk if that's a selling feature 😂 but I devoured it. 

Kayleigh King did a fantastic job portraying the gut wrenching evisceration of a fated mate rejecting the bond. Her writing was fantastic. The angst and tension was so palpable. The wolf tendencies 😍 The pining 😭 the SWEATSHIRT 🥹 the McNamaras 🖕🏻 There is a little bit of spice (& we have a 💦👖 situation) but I know more is coming in the sequel. The cliffhanger has me ready to f*cking riot. 

TLDR; Read if you love shifter romance with
- Omegaverse
- mutual pining 
- slow burn
- element of mystery/suspense 

This was the emotional buildup and I can't wait to get some answers and a HEA in Raw. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
