4.5
dark medium-paced

• Smutty / Heavy romance

• Look up trigger warnings

This book is defiantly has a lot of violence. I am a sucker for enemies to lovers! It is defiantly heavy in the romance part but with just enough plot to keep me hooked, plus the twists! I couldn't wait for it to unfold, as it is also one of my favorite elements in books lately. I have not read anything else by this author but after this book I am excited to read more as a few of her other books are on my Tbr. The enjoyment of this book is why it was rated so high, since I read it in a day. The level of romance was a bit more then I normally read but I was able to not have it affect my enjoyment of this book. As soon as I was done I picked up the next book, lets hope its as good as the first book.
This is one of those pure junk food reads for me. It has so many things I love in a dark fantasy. I was sucked in and read this book I one day, I love it so much. I can't wait to see where this series goes! What a great start.

* Side note the level of smut / spice was a bit much for me and how it was written. I tend to like a little more plot over smut but this is just my tastes and is why the book didn't get 5 stars from me.
