Lyriope can run, but she can’t hide. Especially from Nick.

I loved getting more of just Lyriope and Nick and seeing their relationship grow and actually become something real. The connection they are forming with each other was not something either of them expected, but you just can’t deny the chemistry that these two have with each other.

I loved getting to see a different side of Nick throughout this story. The man be dangerous and ruthless, but there is also a somewhat softer and sweeter side to him. I loved seeing the growth in Lyriope. She still has some naiveness and innocence to her, but she is starting to get a little smart and maybe a little corrupt thanks to Nick showing her a different side to things.

Even though they may be in the beautiful Italian countryside the dangers of their lives outside of the little bubble they created are still out there and still a threat. I can’t wait to see how their story ends.

If you’re looking for a dark, antihero, fairytale retelling this is one to check out.
