Took awhile before the romance even began but it’s an interesting read. I can now say I read a minotaur romance. The world building was pretty good giving  a fully fleshed out world. Way better compared to the many urban fantasy novels I have read when I was a teenager .

The ending  seemed so chilling with the first paragraph being the last!!!
This book is a true gothic novel. It’s not a horror since the terror slowly builds up. Would give to  anyone who wants a gothic novel to read.
