This author has always been a hit or miss for me, but I always keep coming back to her because I find her characters are so addicting. And this one is no exception.

Although this book is connected to her YA series (which it shouldn’t be) Kingdom of the Wicked, I remembered little to nothing about that trilogy, and I was completely fine reading this one. I’m really glad she has moved this series into the adult section because that’s exactly what she needed.

I loved the main character, characters, Camilla and Envy. Their individual characters are so intriguing and their chemistry is absolute molten fire. I could feel the vibrations of their lust and desire through the pages. The smut scenes were deliciously enjoyable, but also I like that. It was a slow buildup throughout the book. Especially because the book is over 500 pages. Speaking of, I think it could have been cut a little bit because there were some scenes or moments that I found were not necessarily needed. 

Regardless, I absolutely devoured and enjoyed this book and it was a great book to end 2024 with.
