Covenant by Cora Rose, Lark Taylor
5.0
challenging mysterious tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Loveable characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Wow, just wow! The story telling ability of these two authors and me fully invested from start to finish. From the fantastic two main characters Wyatt (Wy) and Mattias (Matt) and his very interesting and intriguing siblings. The story of Wy and Matt covers some of my favourite tropes - forced proximity, childhood friends who become enemies and then lovers, fake marriage - so plenty of hurdles for them to overcome on the way to their longed for and hard earned HEA. This is a romance that has twists and turns, some unexpected and some not and plenty of morally greyish moments. It’s a perfect balance of romance between complex characters with flaws, an engaging plot and on point pacing. It gave me some feels along the way as Wy and Matt fought to be together but I was left with a full and happy heart at the end. There’s also a sneak peak at the next in the series and I’m very excited for it.
