‘She wanted to know if I saw myself as the hero of my story, but I didn't. I only saw myself as the villain of hers.’

Thank you to Harper L. Woods for an ARC of this book, here is my honest review:

This was one of my most anticipated reads of 2023 and I was not let down!!

I feel like this book was more focused on the mystery of Estrella powers and the villain Mab which I actually really enjoyed. There was so much information that was given and it gave so much mysterious vibes with so many moments that just left you questioning everything. 
I also surprising love Mab, not like I love her like I want her as a friend but like love to hate her ya know? Like there is no redeeming qualities about her but she is a good villain, like I hate her…but I love that I hate her.

Also Caldrius and Estrella’s relationship in this makes my heart just melt, there’s a bit less of moments between them but when we get them they are amazing. There were spicy moments, sweet moments, a little bit of banter and I just love them both so much. 

I will say that cliffhanger hurt! Like Adelaide/Harper…are you really going to leave me on that?! I need to know more now!!

I will say that I do feel that at times I feel like the book was a bit slow and I wish things would speed up but once I got to a certain part of the book I read maybe 80% of the book in one sitting…I don’t have a problem…just an addiction.

Anyway! I highly recommend this series, I feel if you loved the SJM universe and From Blood and Ash you might enjoy this series. Please check TWs and CWs for all books as these books are on the darker side! 18+

Happy reading 🤍
