Emilia's life has been completely changed after finding out her sister Vittoria is alive but why was she faking her death? Emilia is left to find out who she really is, who is her family, and uncover the secrets of the underworld. 

Some things the author did well: spice, it increased immensely to the point that this book should no longer be considered a young adult book. It also developed some secondary character which is probably going to receive their own books.

What I didn't like:
There were many times when things were introduced into the story, only to be quickly resolved. 
Everything felt too easy, or predictable, even in the end.
We also don't see much of Wrath, he is the reason I loved the previous books and he seems weak in this book, he's only there to sexually please the main character.
Too many plotholes...I'm just going to pretend I never read this.
