I’d give this book a 3.5 ⭐️, when I first started reading the book I was confused at first with the biological aspects but I enjoyed it because it was something fairly new to me and not my first choice but I found the story unique enough to continue. The plot twist wasn’t anything shocking to me, I predicted her “killing” the prince and suspected that she lost her memory and she was really an assassin. I was right that she was an assassin not that she lost her memory. All in all, Jeneane really said ENEMIES to lovers and that was the best part honestly and I liked her story enough to read the next book.

This book was dark and sometimes it felt like it was dark for the sake of being dark. It’s hard to express how I feel about this book because I loved and hated it at the same time 😭 I will say it had dark elements for a fantasy book so I’d just keep that in mind.

Good story. Got confusing in some parts, I suppose the author was trying for a ‘gotcha moment’ but it left me confused. Also the errors in the book didn’t help. Also I hate cliff hangers and didn’t realize this would have one. I doubt I’ll be reading the second book.

Very dark book but found it very hard to put down. Editing probably could have done with some work and arguably not a great quality book but regardless I loved it and Can’t wait for the next one to come out
 
The twist ahhh !

OMG YOU GUYS, I GET IT. I GET HOW TIKTOK GIRL FEELS NOW.

this book instantly made it to my top 5 reads this year GO READ IT.

You didn’t fall into the bad guy’s traps, and you certainly—certainly—didn’t fall in love with him.

the villain love interest be villaining.
the enemies to lovers be enemying and loving.
forced proximity.
dark ass fae.
hurt/comfort.
a lil smut.

“Until this moment, I’ve never known you could crave something you’ve never wanted."

STEM queen who is giving me low key heisenberg vibes. she's a bad ass who uses her scientific knowledge to outsmart and beat the fae.

villain fae prince w a dimple, be still my heart. he's evil but possessive and it's so fun.

“I am the bad guy, Callie.” He pulled away from my lips just enough to lay his whisper upon them, never opening his eyes. “Which is why you will never, ever be free from me again.”

the ending omg... i need book 2 STAT.
