literally Leon is giving such Seth capella vibes this book. His chapters have been my favorite. I wish we got more of Elise in ZA but I get why we didn’t since this series has her backstory. I feel her mate bond with Gabriel is so weird bc I thought he couldn’t see mates????? Also they just like… fuck and then he’s mean for 2 chapters then is like oooooop nevermind I guess?? Also ryder is so insufferable I haaaaaate him

So, this is the continuation of me jumping into RB series after reading ZA book 1 to 3

I love both of the authors, but as a start for this series, i quite don't feel the way Zodiac Academy makes me feel. It starts off a bit boring for me at the beginning. Yet it still has the spicy feels here and the story kinda feels intense a bit in the middle of the book. But as a whole, i didn't get to grasp the same way as the way i grasp for zodiac academy. However,  i still want to know who's the King that Elise been searching for? Is it true that one of the king involves with her brother's murder? Who killed gareth? And who is behind the face of the King from black card cult? In conclusion,  it's kinda meh for me. 

P.S I might do some edits to my reviews later on if i'm not lazy
