This was my first dark romance. I usually read fantasy and dark fantasy. 

I really liked this book. It had so much of what I was looking for like an unhinged, burn the world down, obsessed mmc. Killian is everything I look for in an mmc. I was here for it. 

Part of me missed the fantasy elements that I am used to. Although the books was fast paced, sexy, and mysterious I find myself drawn more to fantasy dark romance where something else is also driving the plot. 

The relationship was done very well, but the end of the book felt rushed for the relationship. However I understand this is a standalone and everything needs to be wrapped up in one book. 

Three things that knocked down my rating
the FMC keeps saying she wont give herself to the mmc completly and then just does near the end. Yes stuff happened to move this along but it did not feel like their was enough internal monologue to understand her change in behavior. The mystery and person not being dead felt so rushed and we don’t even get a scene of Lan and Killian taking revenge for Glyndon. It felt like the book needed like 50 more pages to wrap both the love story and the revenge plot up. Finally why the Devlin guy faked his own death was only briefly explained and did not really make sense. The reasons he gave could have been accomplished by him not faking his own death. Again just a few more pages could have helped.
Anyway, despite some criticisms, I really enjoyed it. And although I prefer fantasy dark romance I will continue with the next standalone. 

Overall: 4.25/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫
Spice: 4/5 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

Mehh. This book was kinda cringe. I didn’t hate it and found it as an easy read, but some parts of this book made me gag lmao.

Damn. I love everything about this book. 
Rina Kent, will this be the start of my obssession with your books?
You covered everything.
I like the parents' POV.


Killian Carson. Damn, my monster. 🥵
You broke me.

“Listen to me and listen to me well, Glyndon. I spent my whole life repressing my true nature, but I’d willingly embrace my demons for you. I’d turn into the devil, a monster, and whatever weapon I have to be if it means I can protect you. You will never, ever question me about it, do you hear me?”
