It was good. There were parts where it was Teka-teking in the middle, but all in all, it's a good story about fighting for the life you want.
I will say, though, I wish the author gave us more on the supernatural side of things. After the kitsune moved bodies, It would have flowed better if Hiro, being the reporter he is, dug around looking for more info about this curse and how to master it like the former boss had.
A huge chuck of the book was them, Hiro and Raiden, running around in circles not having a plan, Hiro and his Insecurities, pack members questioning Raiden's leadership and the kitsune mentally tormenting Hiro
A chapter or two would have been nice where Hiro becomes a bit badass, I mean, he had a very powerful spirit with him🤷🏾♀️ instead of always calling on Raiden through the bond to save him.
Also another thing, the Book being a paranormal romance, some of the characters being supernatural, I found it a bit weird that Raiden's pack didn't have like a library or Whatever where their magical history Is stored.
Also , a "family" witch/ necromancer, etc. that works for the pack or elders... like a source of magical knowledge, they would have gone to the minute they wanted to know how to break the Curse.
Also, Had Hiro learned to control the kitsune, I would have loved a Smexy scene of both of them in that half Shifted form😩🔥🤭

Loved it🤌🏾🔥😩‼️ Spectacular give me fourteen of these 🤭👌🏾‼️
It's definitely a favorite.🤭😩 I will eat up werewolf fated mates insta love EVERYTIME😂.
The storyline was interesting. I never read up about Japanese folklore, but now I will, I'm intrigued. Heck, I want more books with this vibe.
Takana and Hiro's brother , you small little ngwanas, Its on site my dhiye When I catch you guys 🫵🏾🙄‼️ yho
What kinda breaks my heart though Is how Raiden doesn't have a family now, and he is now deeper into the organisation he wants to leave.😟💔

This book is so confusing because the author didn't go into detail about certain things. for example, the logistics of one of them not having an actual body since he is a demon.
like how are they touching each other?
how did boyza end up in hell ?? was it physically or spiritually? was their entire interaction spiritual while phelan 's body lay somewhere unconscious, that typa vibe ?
boma projection Ish?
I did not expect that ending💀😳, I mean everything that happened from 50% of the book, to be honest✋🏾😂‼️. Curiousity got the best of me🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡.
Hence, I started this dualogy, so if you are Christian, I'd say stay away from this cause some things that were said are blasphemous 😬,
that said, the book is well written, nothing gets dragged, the pacing is just right, the mystery 👌🏾, It keeps you hooked trying to put pieces together.

the Bickering between Cassius and gman was top tier, the banter was witty and funny😂😂😂😂
The plot had me hooked from jump, the fact that I finished reading this book within 24 hrs and not once did I feel it was too long despite it having 400 pages, while I typically read books with way less pages says a lot🤷🏾♀️🤭🤌🏾🔥‼️
Nje, it was giving kuningi, and it keeps getting Kuningier neh, mara in the right way. There were a few things that confused me, but the story came together well.
I won't lie though, I felt like the " nature" witches were giving clueless kise 🤞🏾😂, even about their own history, unlike the necromancers who kept detailed records, it's giving they were blinded by their own hatred vibes on top of everything 🙄 🙄 .
Didn't see that twist coming at the end, xem🙆🏾♀️😂, I really enjoyed reading the one🙃🙃🙃

Book 1 was better for me. This one made me feel like these two should not be a couple hai ngeke, the way these two never talked to each other about how they feel.
The book was 60% them arguing, because they ignored the big elephant in the room, the assualt. Don't even know why Roan went to therapy when he didn't do what the therapist said he should do; TALKING TO SASHA🙄‼️
And then jiki jiki he stops going to therapy and they are "doing much better"🥱🚮, the change felt a bit abrupt considering how much time we spent reading about them fighting. kamo Roan didn't even tell Sasha about the night mares, kuri It felt like they were living in two different planets.
Sasha frustrated me cause of how irrational he would act yhooo🙄😩 and him not trying to make an effort to be emotionally available🙄.
the russian nickname was cute though😩😍🥺♥️

hai✋🏾🙄‼️ These two deserve the award for thinking with than dicks🤣 especially Seyn💀, didn't feel the " love" rather lust 🥱😂. not ya'll Wasting everybody's time, having everyone Stressed, worried, and concerned. I guess the Only good thing that came from them being Stupid Is Harry's situation.
Basically, this book is about a boy Who almost died because his mate died, so they decide to bond him to an infant, when he realises the bond didn't take and he has tasted the Sweetness of not having his senses dulled , he decides to stay unbonded to ultimately have stronger telepathic abilities.
He gaslights the little boy into thinking that the bond between them is perfectly fine and there's something wrong with him for not being able to " Connect" with him, While he is busying getting Stronger at telepathy, manipulation, accessing people's minds. Then he tries to convince himself he doesn't feel any attraction towards his intended mate, that doesn't work, they get married in the end.
Boyza Just wanted to be powerful that's all. All of this being said I was thoroughly entertained by the book,
