5.0

This is the longest instalment of this series yet, and I went in thinking I would not care for this enemies-to-lovers novel, as vampires aren't really my thing. I realised I was in for a good time when the protagonist's violent persistence after meeting the love interest made me laugh aloud. Ultimately I enjoyed this sympathetic take on vampires and unravelling the story's mystery--although once we understood what happened, I thought to myself
of course a man made a giant mess and of course a woman has to sacrifice everything to fix it</spoiler> lol. 

It goes without saying that if blood makes you squeamish, you should give this one a skip.
