5.0

I'm a sucker for vampires, haha, and this book didn't disappoint. Also, as someone who read the deal with a demon series first, I loved seeing some crossovers. I love how much the guys want to protect and care for Mina in their own ways, and how she uses their knowledge to grow her own strength and abilities. 

When I realized there was a pregnancy trope I was a little concerned as I normally don't enjoy it, but I shouldn't have doubted that Katee would do it well. 

If you want a good enemies to lovers/reunited lovers trope and you love reverse harem then I'd absolutely give this book a read. Heads up that, as should be expected, it is very spicy.

I'll admit I got behind on reviews and probably missed some content warnings.

Mina is sent by her father to be a blood donor & maybe baby mama to an important vampire. Except Malachi is nothing like her abusive father & him + his friends want to find a away for both Malachi & Mina to be free. 

Dark Monster Romance, MMMF, Blood Kink, 4 1/2 🔥

Spicy. Spicy. Spicy. 🌶️ A tale of broody, sexy vampires, silly seraphim, and their undying bond with one another. Romantic and sexy at the same time. Thoroughly enjoyed this one!
