4.5

ooooooh, I really enjoyed this!! I read the second half of this book in a day. I was hooked within the first few pages and the last few chapters had me yelling at my kobo. I was berating Bettina in the annotations the entire time for fumbling the bag so bad.

I'm docking 0.5 star because some parts made me cringe a bit, especially as a jeweler and raver, myself. Also for the first couple chapters I thought Bettina and Caspion were actually brother and sister and almost DNF'd -- they in fact, are not related, much to my relief. 

Great balance between plot and smut, imo. I really enjoy the lore the Cole has built for the vampires in this world. All in all, I think this was well written and I look forward to reading more of this series.
