One day, I'm going to carve your heart out and keep it as a souvenir. I promise.
Huh that was very, VERY weird and in the truest sense of the word. Honestly, I've never been a fan of dark romance (or even romance books), but something clicked inside me and I thought maybe I should give it another chance after last time, after Brutal Prince. Well, whether it worked out or not, I honestly don't know.
Morana was a (oddly) very lovable female protagonist, full of qualities and personality traits that earned my love. Her anger, her passion, her sudden decisions, and her mistakes made her alive in a way I rarely see in books like this. Tristan was a tougher nut to crack for me, but at the end of the day, I can't say I hate him, not like I do with many other characters of this type, he wasn't too much, he wasn't as overprotective, he wasn't an alpha male I couldn't stand, in short, even he wasn't terrible. Dante and Amara stole my heart. They are my heart.
The love thread was quite fine, it didn't feel so forced, and I even feel a bit like this relationship between them is still very open and rudimentary. Either way, they are lovable in their own way and truly deserve each other.
I basically liked the plot, it wasn't much and it wasn't incomprehensible either, in a word, it was normal. I liked that the past and the investigation were in it, albeit in a subplot. I think the pace was set up well, although at times it felt either too fast or too slow, depending on what was happening. The ending was well concluded anyway, it gave a little spark to the sequel, but honestly, not enough for me to continue right now.

There are a lot of unresolved plot points by the end. So if you want closure, be prepared to read the next in the series, The Reaper.
