4.0

Verdict: A classic morally grey MMC, rebellious, sassy FMC, contemporary set adult romantasy. Think crescent city vibes with extra dark academia. 

This romantancy throws you into an alternate reality NYC where monsters are real and peace between species is fragile. 
Kierse, a bold thief, breaks the rules and enters a monster’s lair, only to strike a dangerous bargain with a creature as charming as he is terrifying. The stakes are high, the tension is palpable, and every page pulls you deeper into a dark, seductive world.

The book was a slow to medium pace but really kicked off in the last third
