So glad I jumped into this series! 

After I read Gothikana I knew I had to read all of RuNyx’s work. And I’m so glad that I’ve started. I really enjoyed Morana and Tristan’s story, at least what we’ve seen of it so far. And of course I’ve loved meeting the other characters like Dante and the lovely Amara. 

I also found the plot really compelling and I’m excited to see where the story takes me!

This was so good I read it in 2 days! It’s a slowburn and their relationship spans 2 books but I loved it. I know I love a book when I keep wanting to read it and this was definitely that. THE TENSION 😱

Its was definitely interesting and a new kind of mafia book. Exciting to see the new developments. This was definitely kind of a repetitive book though and literally nothing seemed resolved even with more books.

Some hate filled spice in this one. Plot felt pretty thin at points and I would say the big reveal at the end could’ve been boiled down to maybe 8 pages rather than the 20 or so that it took up. Skimming the big reveal isn’t the best sign for me…

Connecting dots was a bit haphazard and some repetitive descriptive phrases…felt sorta basic. Would I recommend it for the spice? Yeah. Do I think a bit more flourish could’ve made this that much better? Absolutely.

I was in a bit of a reading slump and nothing was helping. But then I found this book and I almost stayed up all night to finish it, it was that good!
