SUMMARY:
Saeris Fane is good at staying under the radar in the unforgiving desert that is the Silver City. She has been picking pockets, siphoning water and sneaking out of the quarantined 3rd Ward for as long as she can remember. But her luck can only continue for so long. In a bid to save her brother from her own mistakes, she finds herself at the mercy of the undying queen. Saeris comes face-to-face with Death and inadvertently opens a gateway between worlds. She unwittingly binds herself to that shadow of Death and finds herself a pawn in his plan to protect his people. They say that the Devil is in the details — be careful of the deals you make.
REVIEW:
This book is quite a ride! The relationship between the FMC & MMC is exactly what I want in a fantasy enemies to lovers. She is strong and independent, he is grumpy and overbearing and their relationship is very adversarial for much of the book, which I LOVE. The banter between characters is very entertaining and the TENSION is top-tier. This is a medium burn that does pay off with some great, steamy scenes.
There is a quite a bit more lore and worldbuilding in this book than I was expecting, but it does not occur up-front. At some points, the background information is mentioned after events occur as an explanation, but it felt a little like an afterthought. The interconnected background / storylines of the fae, vampires, gods, etc. became a bit confusing for me. There are certainly unfinished storylines that leave things wide open for a continuation of this series, so perhaps more will be explained in the next book.
This book is single POV, but the audiobook has duet narration — the female dialogue is voiced by Stella Bloom and the male dialogue is voiced by Anthony Palmini. 🤌🏻
I’ll be honest, for the first 30% of the book, I would have rated a 3⭐️, 30% - 90% is a 5⭐️ and the last 10% of the book is a 4⭐️. With all that said, I really enjoyed this book overall. The premise was very interesting, there is quite a bit of action to keep you engaged and the relationships dynamics and dialogue were amazing. I look forward to reading the next book.
