I really loved the dynamic between the two MCs. The pets really took it to the next level! There were many things I didn’t see coming, or twists I saw coming but they went further than I thought.

What a sweet and tragic story! Honestly, my only complaint is that I wanted more time with them! 🥹 Regan and all the terrible things he went through really got me. And Isaac was such a bleeding heart. Fairly short read, childhood friends to lovers, pining, and so so so much heart!

These characters are so well thought out and complex! Oli really is such a genuinely sweet person who is trying his best. Jax is looking for reasons to just keep going, despite all the unfortunate hands life has dealt him. Their meet-cute was terrifying and traumatic, but the rest of the story is just two broken people who can’t help but fall in love, maybe more than once. Honestly, such a great read.

This book was so sweet! Auro was especially sweet and kind, I adored him. Initially the building is rather slow, but at about 40% it really picks up! The twists at the end were definitely interesting, and the story kept me guessing! I am SO READY for the next book! If you like historical romance vibes, romances with demigods, a dash of royal politics, secrets and curses, then give this book a shot!

Another hit for this series! Jonah is honestly such a sweet baby Angel. He is like a puppy and I adore him so much for that. Grey is more reserved, a bit uptight, but has a heart of gold. Even though both characters are so different, they both struggle with their own self doubt in different ways, and compliment each other so well! Ugh, I just love every bit of this book so dearly 🥹
