4.5 stars!

The way this book is as pure and sweet as it is despite the dark plot baffles me.

What started out as an arranged marriage between two people with rough pasts ended up as this romantic af story that makes me wish I had a Mikhail of my own. He was the textbook definition of a touch-her-and-die hero, and I shamelessly ate up every scene where he embodied that.

And Bianca? That woman pirouetted her way into my heart. I admired her strong soul and the way she loved Mikhail. She was the light to his darkness, I loved seeing that.

Overall, this series continues to impress me. I'm eager to get to Sergei's story next!
