Kel and Aurelia never fail to write an amazing stories filled with intrigue and mystery. Their characters always feel like the come to life with every word. They are all so different and enticing. This book had me absorbed into the book from the first chapter. Nathalie is not to be trifled with yet she is also try to put as much good back into the world as she can. She truly is a heart of gold but with skeletons in the closet. She is struggle with trying to help everyone else out that she often doesn't take what she needs. She finally lets that go in this one but at what cost. The devil truly is in the details as they say. The ending is going to leave at the end of your rope.

What in the name of Luci???

This book was awesome, amazing, everything I didn't know I needed - it was full of drama and it unraveled all of my emotions. I love Nathalie and despite the fact that she gets mad at how the guys go about getting to her what she refuses to realize is just how obsessed they all are with her. Which is a shame really cause she deserves nothing less. August is just so swoon worthy and he making inroads finally. Lucifer, well he is the devil, but one so gone for Nathalie that it's cute. Marcel is meh - he doesn't deserve Nathalie but the pity is strong. That ending though... I'm super excited for book 3.

Stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Spice:

First, if you haven't read book one yet, what are you waiting for?
Go read it! Goooooo :D

Worldbuilding:
This is the second book of the series, set in the same world as the Demons of New Chicago series, so we know the world by now. We know the lay of the land and who the players are.
Scenes and environments were, as usual, clear and detailed. Very well written!

Character development:
With the way the first book ended... I admit I wasn't sure how it would get resolved. Nat has always been treated as inferior. I didn't want her to be second place for one of her lovers. And this was a big part of the story in this installment.
Nat has a lot on her plate, and her men don't make it easier for her. Lucifer still haunts her but starts feeling more real the closer they get to Samhain. August, has formed a bond with Nat but hasn't told her about it yet, and Marcel has so many secrets I don't even know where to start...
This installment has many twists and turns again, so hold on to your horses. You're in for a wild ride.

Pacing and flow:
This book felt a lot slower than the previous one. I think because there wasn't much about the investigation or the search for Katherine. But instead, the focus was on her relationship with each man or, well... demon... you know what I mean! It was only toward the end that things started speeding up.

The book:
The book is well-written with no (noticeable) errors. There are sexual scenes described (if that is important to you).
The book has 282 pages, spread over 22 chapters, and is told from multiple points of view.

Final thoughts:
I voluntarily read an advanced reader copy of this book, and while I thought it to be a good continuation of the series, I felt like I was missing a part of the plot... the dead people and the search for Katherine. That ending, though... why do you do this to us?? We need the last book of this series as soon as possible, please!

Ahh this is another fab story by these 2 authors, I very much enjoyed this story and it's characters
