I would have rated the book five stars, but the torture and violence were a bit much for me but needed to fit the storyline. 

Danny and Wyn are an unlikely pairing, but they are made for each other. Danny is a man who didn't have anything in life and joined the military to fit in somewhere, so when the Soul Eater doesn't kill him, everything changes for him. Danny is sassy and slowly realises that he and Wyn may be attracted. 

Wyn is so sweet, if not a little intimidating and scary initially. The journey they embark on and the things they encounter bring them together. The spice is stunning and very well done, and meeting Edin was fabulous; he remembers me as a big rugby player who is a teddy bear on the inside. 

This was the first time I read Lily Mayne, and I will be reading the rest of this series and her other books.
