This F/F installment of the Wicked Villains series focuses on Aurora and Malone. Aurora has been a featured regular throughout the series but Malone has only been mentioned offhand and briefly appeared in The Sea Witch. Their relationship is different to all the others despite most of them also featuring characters needing to come to terms with their partner’s role in the hierarchy of the city.
This has the strongest plot of the series (not super challenging) and I found myself really enjoying the dynamic between the two.
Big trigger warning: the book immediately begins with Aurora taking her mother of life support

I’m reading the series out of order (I do this every time accidentally,) but this is currently my least favorite book. Love the diversity. If you prefer novels where the conflict is mainly internal, this is better for you!
