I feel like the worldbuilding was a little messy, and I didn’t know the difference between the vampire families until halfway through the book. The conflict between the two Nightborn clans was also confusing because we never really know what it’s about. However, the end of the book suddenly spits out a lot of worldbuilding and twists rapid fire and I had to reread some chapters to make sure I got it.
The book isn’t the most unique, but it filled the void of new adult fantasy for me. I needed a nice fantasy read to forget about the world and this provides one. This book will hook you from the first page.
Overall a good fantasy competition book. Would recommend especially if you're looking for new adult fantasy on Kindle Unlimited.
4/5
Recommend For: Romantasy lovers who like competitions and vampires.

There needed to be more world building to help us understand why the Nightborns are at war, why does this tournament exist and so many other details. The author uses world specific phrases and terms but never explains them.
The twists and turns are interesting and I like the romance. There is mystery, and since we only know as much as Oraya information is revealed in pieces keeping you engaged. Raihn is a great love interest with all the banter. (I knew who he was supposed to be so early on though.)
I will read the second book but I am hoping for more.
