3.25

This was a lot more relationship driven than plot driven - which others may like - but wasn’t for me. The moments that should have been climaxes just weren’t that intense. The relationship was a little weird to me - one of those “ancient fae king falls in love with 16 year old human” stories. Almost a little Stockholm-y. FMC was kind of lame, and MMC was supposedly “King of the night” aka Mr Lust - but when the sex scenes finally came, they were so vanilla. Very lame for the trash talk leading up to it. 
I did enjoy the banter between the FMC & MMC in the middle 3rd of the book. And I didn’t have to drag myself through the read. So that earns it 3.25 stars. But, eh - just not for me.
