There was one thing that was inconsistent, though (from what I've noticed, at least). Somewhere towards the beginning of the book it was mentioned Dahlia was allergic to beets, but towards the end-ish it changed to radish. It didn't necessarily bother me to the point I'd lower my rating but it would be nice if the food allergy was consistent.
Spoiler
Though there was that one scene towards the end of the book where Raphael was on the roof and Lucien revealed the secret he's been keeping from everyone was a bit so-so for me because it just happened so quickly, and was very Hallmark-y for my liking.Graphic: Blood, Injury/Injury detail, Murder, Violence, Child abuse, Death, Kidnapping, Rape, Sexual assault, Suicidal thoughts, Self harm, Sexual content, and Suicide attempt
