Too much of the behavior in this aligned with r*pe culture, and it made it hard to get into the book and to suspend belief.

This was an excellent choice to pull me out of a book slump. Dark paranormal romance with enemies to lovers & fated mates tropes. Off the bat, we get the Lore, a catalog of the paranormal creatures of this universe, ranging from vampires to Lykae to Valkyrie and others.   I was immediately enthralled by the characters’ journeys, the lore, and the politics between the groups in contradiction to the couplings we begin to see. My only complaint is the book does seem to wrap up pretty neatly after I had expected an overarching plot through the series, but I’m guessing each book will feature different couples. I’ll certainly be picking up the next installment. 

Spice: 4/5 (2 words: blood blowjob)
