I had heard very good things about this book from readers I follow and decided to give it a try. I enjoyed most of the main characters and their growth and the book was gripping most of the way through. I did not like the male lead (Demon/Damien) there were so many things that personally turned me off from him and made it excruciating for me to get through the title character's story. The overall plot was well done but I wish it was paced differently so the parts of the story that weren't about the romance of the characters flowed better. For me, the pacing of the underlying storyline was all over the place and made it difficult for me to really enjoy the story in its entirety. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys dark romances with mafia family vibes and high stakes. There wasn't a trigger warning placed in the book so please review the trigger warnings people put in the reviews.
