God help me, what is up with all these fae authors? Why do they love writing their romantic interests as raging assholes? I don't get it. Seriously, why do people, specially women, since that is the primary audience for this genre, why do they love to read about women being abused with no resolution? Because that is all this was. Abuse. Horrible abuse.
It actually had a promising start, I think I would have liked this book a lot more had it just been about her living in her cabin, being the only witch in town.
The guy was an actual monster,
he kidnapped her, molested her incessantly, killed her ex (even if he abandoned her, it's still wrong), he killed a child, he inflicted so much psychological abuse on her, and physical too, he just didin't outright hit her, he is forcing her to marry him, and he is going to slaughter humanity and most of the fae, and that is not even all of it
; in summary, trash.
I don't understand how I was supposed to like it. All in all it was hot garbage, but at least I wasn't terribly bored. A few more things. It was supposed to be spicy, but they don't even home run, actually, they don't even 3rd base. Also, she cried a lot, not enough in my opinion, honestly, but he would always be like: why are you crying?! Seriously...
Also, she was always mentioning how much taller than her he was, first she said he was two feet taller than her, then she said he was three times her size, then she said he was four times her size! Then she went back to three. I mean, consistency, also, sounds like she is a child. Ew.
