Was not expecting to like this as much as I did, but it is an angsty slow burn enemies to lovers...
Dianna is a fun character with hidden depths, she is a survivor who presents herself as an irredeemable demon and isn't bothered about being 'good', whereas Liam is the most powerful being in the universe who is pretty much judge, jury and executioner. Liam self-imposed his own isolation to -'avoid destroying anthing further' when really he is a God with ptsd...and Dianna wants to rile him up.
  
The main characters do literally trauma bond but the angst is worth it, and the dialogue had my jaw on the floor at times. 

This book does include an exploitative relationship which the FMC is aware of yet stays for the safety of her sister so might be triggering for some.

I love this book and these characters so much. The communication between our main characters is so good. The banter is amazing. World building is woven in so well into the story. The ending is shocking and the story is just so great!

I love this series so much!!! This is a reread and everything came flooding back. I do think it takes a little time to get into the book because it’s urban fantasy, with modern lingo and Dianna as an FMC may put people off but I bloody love her. She’s so morally grey and villainous but deep inside, there are feelings and characteristics that add to the complexity of her character. It’s also refreshing to see new creatures. Deffo try and keep going. Love the romance and relationship so much, the slow burn is so satisfying 😭😭😭 My fav romantasy series still stands, book 2 is where it’s at tho, so I cannot wait.
