I’ve heard a few things about the characters, so I was surprised that I disliked Rhys up until the last few chapters, and I greatly enjoyed Tamlin. There is a slight ‘Beauty and the Beast’ aspect, in the hidden curse, but this is so much darker and sexier than that story could ever be. Torture, death, loss, challenges, sacrifices, this book has it all.
