I had a lot of fun reading this one! From the start it grabbed me, and I was in for the ride. I really loved Raven’s magic and seeing her grow into her power. I liked Raven and Zeke even when their relationship got toxic.
As much as I enjoyed the story, it was flawed. This book is extremely spicy and in my opinion was way too much so. Not that that’s a bad thing, but it’s something I personally don’t want too much of in my books.
I found the constant repetitive conversations incredibly frustrating to read. I know that miscommunication between characters is supposed to happen in this, but it was giving me a headache. Raven also is incredibly stubborn, and I thought her actions at the end of the book made no sense.
I never understand the hiding of the “secret”. If Zeke could have been just honest, we could have had less repetitiveness and more development of their relationship.
Overall, it was a fun start to a series that I want to continue!
