It was really hard to get into, mainly because the writing felt very basic. The descriptive language was juvenile, the storyline felt undeveloped, and the “spicy” scenes were way too cringe-worthy. I also had to keep going back and re-reading to see if I missed details, but most of them just weren’t there to begin with.
It wasn’t the worst dark, borderline fantasy romance I’ve ever read, but I won’t be looking for anything else by this author again.

But I will say, the cover, binding and sprayed purple edges are beautiful. The purple and black is such a solid choice. Love the Verenmore gold foil.

I didn't want to turn the page as i wasn't sure what id be hit with, the more i read the more i wanted to solve the mystery of the castle, the mystery of Corvina while she discovered herself and the many secrets of Vad. I think i forgot how to breathe at some point! I was spooked.
A very strong plot, strong FMC / MMC and the most intense and gripping build up I've ever read with heaps of twists, especially towards the end. Just when i was figuring it out. I was thrown off. This was the first book i have read by this author and honestly what a solid start. This book is going to live in my head for a long time! Please, please, please tell me there's a second book!
“Build your castle, Corvina,” he told her quietly as they both watched the view outside. “I’m not moving anywhere. Build your castle as fucking high as you want.” ✨5/5 ✨
