I fell in love with Lock the second he was introduced. He gives off that Damon (TVD) energy that most, if not all of us, love. Morally grey, don’t fluff with his girl, sarcastic, unhinged - doesn’t have an oz of patience for anyone’s scheiße.
Lock has been stuck in a situationship with Liah for the last century. She believes they’re mates. But all he’s truly wanted is to take the city from her.
Save love for the fairytales cause you’re not getting it from Lock… or wait, not until he meets Sam.
Sam is Lock’s means to an end. She is naive, stubborn, witty, and totally unfazed by Lock… until she isn’t.
The Belladonna to his Hemlock.
Together they will run San Francisco.

“You have handed me a rose and I’m very interested to see how sharp your thorns are.”
Madilyn had me hooked from the very first sentence. The banter had me cackling throughout the entire read.
Kiera instantly became one of my favorite FMC’s. She is feisty, snarky, stubborn, and so dang strong. She knows how to push Reyn’s buttons and doesn’t hesitate to put him in his place.
Reyn is a controlling, self-absorbed, broody, also stubborn, “beast” (or fairy if you ask Kiera) on a mission, who’s completely captivated by Kiera.
Together, they will send you on a rollercoaster full of twists and turns and all of the emotions.
Entangled Realms is a modern spin on the classic tale of Beauty and the Beast filled to the brim with love, hate, angst, power and control, ALL the banter, and a Beauty who doesn’t let her thorns succumb to her Beast… even if she is his favorite rose 🥀
She is DARK 🖤
She is spicy 🥵🔥
