Holy hell!
This was so much fun!
The characters, the world building, the drama - I ate it all up.
The sexual tension was *chef's kiss*
The writing was also surprisingly good, I think I might be really into this author

Loved this book, it was a great mix of fantasy, romance, and action. I was invested throughout the entire book and loved all the characters, including supporting characters. I really liked the ending, so much happened and so much was revealed, and I can't wait to see where the sequel takes us. 

• The romance in this book was really good, it was a slow burn romance with lots of tension - Oraya and Raihn had great chemistry and banter.
• The world building was easy to follow and the book does a good job at explaining the politics of the vampire clans.
• I liked that this book wasn't just about the Kejari, but we see a lot of vampire lore and history - Nyaxia's history, Raihn & Vincent's histories, the history of the other gods and goddesses.
• I liked the dynamic between Oraya & Vincent, and how it compared to Oraya & Raihn's relationship

Great fantasy romance book, it had me giggling, gasping, and tearing up. I'll definitely be hopping into the novella and sequel.

I’m not sure why I took so long to read it, but now I’m hooked and I’m not letting go. I could do without the end fight, I’d rather the king lived and our two mcs joined together happily in love but I GUESS, I’ll go for some drama. I just hope its a one time thing.
