Any fan of dark, romantic fantasy such as Sarah J. Maas would love this book. Filled with emotions and human relability but also set in a beautiful fantasy world that catches you off guard with its dark nature, its a book I had to stop myself from reading and remind myself to take ny time and enjoy. The last chapter left me speechless as I didn't see that coming. Hawke, I saw coming, that, I didn't. Biggest cliffhanger ever. I read this book for sexy scenes supposedly inside and came out witnessing a beautiful relationship that I will forever crave on my own life. It should also be stated that Jennifer Armentrout is a master at taking established lore and twisting it. Forget vampires and zombies, get me near a craven and I could never sleep again. Those things are seriously scary. I loved every minute of this book and while it's not a 5/5 star book that I wish I could read every moment of every day, it is a wonderful book that I will come back to many times.
