5.0

Such a fun and refreshing read. 

House of Bane and Blood is an all consuming gaslamp fantasy romance. Slow burn and tension you could cut with a knife, Milla & Nicolai’s story will leave you begging for more by the final page.

Arranged marriage,
Enemies to Lovers,
Sassy Banter,
Unique Magic System, 
Plot Forward with a Hint of Smut,
Alternating First Person POV,
Found Family

This one had everything I wanted and more. 5⭐️/🌶️.5
