Excellent book! Highly recommend. 

Note this is a dark fantasy romance, so characters are not prince and princess charming. They take time to warm up to and are morally grey (mmc is). Check content warnings!

Expect:

- enemies to lovers
- captive/captor
- games
- great banter
- fast paced 
- great tension 
- slowww burn

Overall 4.5 ⭐️

Spice 1/5 🔥 her books seem to start slow but then ultra ramp up in the next books.

The slow pace of this one really tested my patience. Not sure if it's just me, but man, it felt like things were dragging on forever.

As for the female main character, I'm kinda on the fence about her. I mean, I'm not a fan of those stubborn types who go all out sacrificing themselves for a world that's given them nothing but suffering. Maybe she'll grow on me in the next book if she shows some positive changes.

Oh, and let's talk about Valroy. Can I just admit that I'm already smitten with this guy? I couldn't care less about the people he offed. They had it coming, except for that one kid.

Kingsley knows how to deliver a male main character who's unapologetically himself. It's freaking fantastic, and I'm absolutely loving it.

Kingsley has crafted a really interesting and dark world that I'm looking forward to exploring. I'm not sure how I'm going to come round to the romance that's building but we shall see.

God I don’t know how this book was such an incredible train wreck. Like, the beginning? So good! Loved the scorned wife dynamic she had going. And then I really couldn’t understand the pace or the story of this book. Nothing made sense. The timeline was so horribly horribly off. There was a chunk in the middle that was just so bad that I stopped reading for like 4 months. The ending??? Pisses me off. But only because there’s a second book and honestly I would have liked it if that was the end honestly. Read those triggers because holy shit.

Slightly disturbed. Cliff hanger ending. I don’t know why I read this book, I didn’t like it, and yet I really want to see were this goes (not in a good way) 
Info on the rape: (he doesn't do it, its talked about)
