“I love your brain, even when I fear it.”
This may have taken me a while to get into, but once I was in it— I was utterly consumed by every word. A love story between two souls wandering this earth who happen to cross paths at the precise moment they needed the other. This one touched my soul in a way I can’t explain but d a m n this was beautiful✨
”If this is what it is to burn, then I will be worth more as scattered ash than any of my unscathed pieces.”
I know this won’t be for everyone, but wow did this live up to the hype for me.

“He’d found the strength to destroy the men who’d hurt us, and if that made him the Devil, then I would gladly burn in hell by his side.”
I quite enjoyed this gripping, hauntingly tragic, action packed story!
At the start of this book we follow Darby as a young girl when she forms an unlikely friendship with Kellen, a mute known as the devil’s son, during summer trips to see her grandfather on his sheep farm in Ireland. With each summer visit, the pair grow closer while searching the woods for fairies and finding solace in the others’ company. After a tragedy and years later, Darby returns to the Irish village engaged to another man & unsure of what feelings reuniting with her old friend will bring to light.
This story starts off a bit slower as we learn about the back story and what led to Darby & Kellen to form such a strong bond as children. There are some dark moments that happen to both MC’s as kids that are revealed as the story unfolds which was just heartbreaking to read. I have to say that there’s just something beautiful about seeing two pained souls find their way back to their first love🥹
I was rooting for Darby and Kellen the whole way through! They were respectful of each other & mutually understood that touch alone was sacred, especially given their traumas.
I also want to mention the Author’s note. It was fascinating to learn about the history behind this tale and I appreciate BB’s honesty in telling this story.
**Please be kind to yourself & check the content warnings before jumping in because this does cover some dark subject matter— mainly child abuse, SA, ptsd, & domestic violence.

This book really had me thinking & self reflecting which is an ode to the author and this story.

I hate to say it but I’m still not a fan of MK as a character. I thought by the end of the series I would warm up to her but sadly that’s not the case. She was a little too immature in my opinion for these men to be lusting over her.
Even though MK wasn’t my favorite, Miss Tate knows how to write a story & keep you on the edge of your seat. Especially those cliff hangers at the end of each book?!?! Even at the end of this one?!? SHEESH.
Miss Tate leaves you utterly gobsmacked so make sure you have the next book ready to go friends.
Ultimately this series is great to binge with an underlying mystery plot, tons of spicy hotness, and what is sure to be your newest addiction. 😏😮💨
