First, I would like to think the author for providing an ARC copy of this book. 

This book was absolutely fantastic. I was vested in the characters from the beginning, and the cliffhanger at the end definitely has me wanting more.

I’m a sucker for a good vampire book, and this one does not disappoint. What starts out as an arranged forced marriage, turns into a friendship, an alliance, which, of course grows into love.

Luna and Sebastian are wonderful characters. She’s a strong, intelligent, female character. Sebastian, or bastion is the typical brooding male character who actually has a very soft, sweet side. I love the magic arc in this story, as well as the relationship that grows between Luna and Sebastian.

I can’t wait for the second book in the series. We are left on quite a cliffhanger at the end.

There are a few minor mistakes with editing, but nothing that can’t be overlooked. Mistakes are common, especially in ARC books.

Slow burn
Forced proximity 
Forced marriage 
Blood, of course, because there’s vampires 
Hostage situation 
Probably recommendation for 16 and up

First, I have to thank the author for the amazing opportunity to read this ARC! I have been geeking out about this book since I saw the cover on a Facebook group weeks before the opportunity.

This is a fantasy book written in a dungeons and dragons adventure style. There are several different fantasy characters, including but not limited to, vampires, dwarves, humanoid lizards, humanoid rats, dragons and so much more.

I have absolutely love this book from the prologue. The characters are wonderfully written and full of life in personality. My two favorite are of course Cassius and rooster. These boys have my heart already.

Not only will I probably be pre-ordering this book, I cannot wait to see where the adventure continues. This book leaves us on a cliffhanger and I am on the edge of my seat wanting to know where we go. 

(I love that the author is relating to modern times and situations with gender, there is gender fluid characters. which totally makes sense when you’re basically a lizard hahaha)

The world building is fantastic as well. I do feel that this book is probably going to be slower than the next books in the series, as the author is building this world and characters. I can’t say enough how excited I am to watch the journey of these characters unfold in the upcoming books
