I really wanted to love this, and many parts I did. However, this book could have used another 200 pages to convince me how and why this lass fell in love with this demon (oh yeah, and a shadow she likes to make out with).

I really did like the world building and the mix of Greco-Roman mythology, but thankfully I was pretty well versed before diving in. The newbie would probably need to read these myths and look at a family tree or two before trying to understand the story.

The imagery of Nyx's poor country trapped under a parchment-like dome where no one could realy see the stars or the sun was breathtaking, and the logic behind the Demon Lord's devil's bargains was great. You can't bargain with a demon and ever hope to win. The smooching was pretty sexy, but I still can't get over the shadow guy. Come one. You've been told since birth you are marrying a demon, but after 1 day you are in love. No way.
