My favorite in the series so far!
As always I was blown away by the writing of BIPOC characters, and I loved that we got a blind FMC! You can always tell so much research and time goes into these books, and I am always so impressed. This is a perfect example of what it means for a character to actually be the race they are written as. So much thought was given to Raewyns' relationship with her hair, and how she maintains it. I also loved getting to see more of a backstory and lore for how demons came to be.
Merikh is the smartest and most cunning Mavka, and his relationship with his family was heartbreaking to read. At the same time his interactions with Rae and how he hunts because of his intelligence was scary brilliant. (Also all of the smut in this book is just GRADE A CERTIFIED GROUND BEEF)
I really loved getting to read about magic and how different the Elven realm is to Earth. I can't wait to read more about it, and I would love another in the series to take place there!
My favorite part about this series is the overarching plot line we get, and how different each book is from the last. Hands down this is my favorite monster romance series! Always spicy and never boring, I can't wait until the next book come out! Is it too much to hope for a Latina as the next FMC?
