4/5⭐

Deepest passion. Darkest betrayal.

Once, she was my world. The only one I loved. Then it was all ripped away—including my freedom.

Vengeance kept me alive. It paved every step, shaped every plot.

Until I finally caught her.

I learned that line between love and hate is wafer-thin. Where once my dreams were filled with revenge, now that I have her, all I think about is the intoxicating passion we once shared.

But there’s no turning back the events her capture has set into motion. It unravels a carefully constructed world, one where enemies surround me.

Everyone, that is, except her.

Now, we only have each other—and the love that once united us, to fight our way to long-buried truths that will change everything.

My Review
The characters Jai and Arya were incredibly well written! The author did a super job of building them up and developing them. The emotions that we had to suffer through with them were like a real rollercoaster. It was as if you were standing next to them and could feel everything they felt! So much anger, fear, love, strenght. Even the characters from the first book, Yasmin, Ravi and Dain, had a big part in this book.

I thought the plot was very interesting and it got me hooked immediately. I had a hard time putting the book down! I liked the plot as it contained elements that are not usually found in the books I read, which made it even better, new and exciting! The Magic system was also different in comparison to what I'm used to reading, a big plus!

I thought the book was well written, simple short chapters which made the book easy and quick to get through. I just want to keep reading and I just want more and more of our characters and the story! I'm so looking forward to the next book in the series! 

My experience of the book has been absolutely fantastic! I look forward to continuing reading! This series was the first one I've read by this author and I'm totally hooked! I look forward to checking out her backlist and reading more good stories from her!


This book was an E-ARC (Advanced Reading Copy) from the author through Netgalley and I am so grateful for the opportunity to read it early!

Review: Blood Mercy by Vela Roth

Blood Mercy by Vela Roth My rating: 4 of 5 stars One human. One immortal. Will their alliance save the kingdom, or will their forbidden love be a death sentence? When Cassia seeks out a Hesperine, he could end her mortal life in a heartbeat. But she has no fear of his magic or his fangs. She knows the real monster is the human king, her father. If he finds out she’s bargaining with his enemy, he’ll send her to the executioner. As a Hesperine diplomat, Lio must negotiate with mortals who hate him. Cassia is different, but politics aren't why she captivates the gentle immortal. He wants more than her blood, and if he can’t resist the temptation, he’ll provoke the war he's trying to prevent. I liked this book, however, the pace was a bit too slow to maintain my interest, it took a long time for me to get through the book. It took a long time for the book and the plot to get going. After about 250 pages, the action took off. This book also offere...

Bokrecension: Cinder av Marissa Meyer

En del kommer det en man dit som vill ha hennes hjälp att laga sin android. Cinder hjälper honom gärna med det men vad hon inte visste var att det var självaste prinsen som kom och bad henne om hjälp. Samtidigt sker det en katastrof i byn, pesten bryter ut och många blir drabbade och många dör. Personal i det kungliga forskningscentret jobbar för fullt för att kunna hitta ett botemedel. Under tiden blir Cinder utsatt för många prövningar! Kan hon hjälpa till? Eller ska hon bara rymma? Om jag ska vara ärlig så hade jag lite svårt för denna bok. När jag läst ungefär halva så kände jag mest bara för att strunta i den. Sen tänkte jag att eftersom att jag ändå har läst så pass mycket som jag hade så bestämde jag mig för att läsa klart den. Och tur var väl det! Andra halvan av boken var bet...
