Amazing
I was really hesitant about this book in the beginning, it just didn’t seem like it was my thing. I can’t even pin down when exactly it happened in the book but I was hooked. I could not set the book down until I finished their story. So many twists you don’t see coming, such a perfect love story. I’m in love. I will recommend this book non stop. I read it on kindle unlimited and seriously need to buy it now because I can’t imagine not owning it and reading it again.

Binge read this book and it was definitely not what it was expecting. But I have to say that i was pleasantly surprised.
It was less smut that I expected and less spice.
Maybe it was my expectations or having read to many dark romance but I did not think this was so dark. Maybe it's because we got Lucians backstory and therefore understand him more he does not seem so dark.

I really enjoyed this book. The gothic romance style in which it was written (with a beauty and the beast/phantom of the opera feel), the spice was on point, even when the MCs made dumb decisions sometimes you still connected with them and felt for them, and there were twists and turns that I didn’t expect (and some that I did). All in all this was a great read and I liked it so much I made my bookclub read it for October lol also, the way it ends leaves it open to a possible second book with I hope the author strongly considers as some things were left as lose ends. I would LOVE for this to be a duology.
