A reaper protects his newly found anchor from attacks. Levi's book! He's a little more toned down compared to the typical SW MMC, but still carries the possessive alpha edge. He's relentless at wanting her to accept their bond but gives her space as well. Piper is sweet and conflict-avoidant, but she's tough, self-aware and can kick major ass when needed. There's mutual pining, though the romance developed quickly due to their anchor bond. 

They have a genuine friendship which acts as a foundation to their romance. The friend and bonding moments are some of the best parts. Their mutual protectiveness and all the 🔥 steam are great, too. I also liked that the MCs are different from the usual SW-styled MCs. However, a little less waffling on commitment (especially Levi) would've upped the book for me. Props to the action/suspense, plus the friend group times.
