I loved this so much. This read was a reread and I loved it just as much as the first time, if not more. It’s filled with foreshadowing that’s hard to miss if you don’t know the ending.

Too much sex for my taste, and the world building could have been neater. The second half was better constructed than the first, so I’m still reading the sequel

• 3🌶️ ; I gave this 3 chili peppers for the quantity of spice not for the quality. 
• This book is for the vampire girlies who prefer more spicy content then plot. But I had that expectation going in so I was fine with it. Although I do wish the plot and main male character had more background. This may come in during book 2 but was definitely lacking book 1.
• The banter between the characters  was hilarious.
• Easy universe to understand and jump into.
• This is a vampire, forced marriage book. 
• This book wasn’t bad but could have had better plot/ writing.

Great story. Certain parts were a bit hard to enjoy like the random

slavery arc

. I also didn’t so much enjoy the love story or the heroine.

So predictable and explicit, I think I'll just read summary of the rest instead of wasting my time reading the series
