This shocked me, because honestly, I didn’t expect to like it as much as A Lady of Rooksgrave Manor—the length was what intimidated me, along with reviews saying it was more plot-heavy than the first book; I was worried it’d be overwritten—but I actually enjoyed this one a lot more! 

The characters were so interesting (I’ve read a lot of monster romance, so I know what to expect from an Orc or Fae or Demons, but the Gemini was a genuine, pleasant surprise), and the slow-building tension within the relationships actually added to my overall enjoyment. I didn’t think it was overwritten. It held my attention, to the point where even when it was like 1 am and my eyes were half-closed, I couldn’t stop reading.
