Spoilers!!
Y’all, I love me some psycho men (fictional only lol), and RENZO??? Hits the spot. Like seriously he’s deranged for trying to send her all these bloody gifts but he has me giggling and swooning because he’s constantly thinking about her and taking revenge for her and he just wants her to know 🤷♀️. And he calls her “little rabbit” just like Killian from God of Malice and he’s my second favorite log man 😩. So safe to say, I love Renzo. Even though he hasn’t had a bunch of scenes, he’s definitely in my mind. Like this man was literally sent to kill her, but as soon as he felt that tug in his guy, he switched gears and now he’s all about her. And then we have Azlan, now that she’s freshly mated to him, wow, the spice scenes are spicing. Plus, his protectiveness over her 😩. And I’m loving how she sees him as a safe place now, like she’s still getting used to it, but she just always wants to be with him 🤭, I just love it. Plus, I’m loving the forbidden student x professor vibes with Stone and Rhi. Like all the arguing, the built up tension, the mini threesome…and that final scene 🤭. And now, we just need the other two to fix their shit because we can already see how little by little they’re softening for her. Like the werebeast aka Spencer not attacking her, Tristan preventing the werebeast from potentially attacking her with his invisibility powers, Spencer properly teaching her how to fight when he learns Renzo is after her, and Spencer wanting her at his dueling match and wanting to impress her. Like these men are down bad for her, but won’t admit to themselves. Like I need them to fix their behavior already.
But y’all, Tristian and Azlan are cousins?? That was a nice shock. Also, we finally learned some information about Rhi’s past and her mother. But I cannot wait to see what the next book has in store for us 👏👏
Favorite quotes/scenes:
“I want you to give it to the girl.” (Renzo 🤭)
“What girl?”
“The one who looks like she fell out of a fairytale.”
“What’s her name?”
“Rhianna Blackwaters.”
“I’ll give it to her. Who should I say it’s from?”
“Her other half. She’ll know.”
“Besides, I bet I made my mark on you too.”
“Any you did, I healed.” (Azlan)
“But I did mark you?”
“You’ve done more than mark me.” (Azlan)
“I have?”
“You’ve captivated me. You’re beautiful. Brave. Smart. And you don’t know when to shut up.” (Azlan)
“I like watching you. You’re such a strange little thing. And you sound so delicious when you scream. You know, I bet I could make you scream twice as loud as he can.” (Renzo)
“She’s not a bitch.” A brat maybe, but not a bitch. A brat who has spilled some color into a world that was looking desolate and gray. “She’s special.” (Azlan to Tristan)
“Like I said, no one here talks to me. Not after that incident with the dude and his tongue. People are so fucking touchy. Especially about their body parts.” (Renzo 🤦♀️🤣)
“What did your aunt tell you about your mother?”
“That she was beautiful. Clever. Kind. That I looked just like her. That she loved me. That she’d been so desperate to have me. That I was the …that I was the light in her life.”
“I think you may be the light in mine too, Rhianna.”
“Spencer, you had hundreds of people cheering out there for you today, chanting your goddamn name. Who cares if I was there or not?”
“I care. I wanted you there.”
“Because, damn it, I do love this girl. For all her brattiness and snark, for her sharp tongue and her naivety. I love her. I love her for her smile, her laugh, for the way her cheeks fill with color and her eyes dance with excitement. Fuck, I love her.” (Stone)
“The moment I answered that call from Azlan. The moment I agreed to help him bring the girl in. The moment I laid eyes on her. From that moment, I was set on a path, my fate, and it was always leading right here. Into my bed, between her legs. This was always where I was meant to be. So damn the consequences. Damn all of it. She’s my mate, my fated mate, and I’m done fighting it. I’m letting go. Falling.” (Stone)
