As the god of fae Mayce has a connection with earth itself and an ability to create nature, maybe this is why he is the first one that wants to know Quintessa down to her roots and then help her grow into a beautiful flower by overcoming her insecurities and realising her own worth. The way he does this is by making her submit to him. The way he does this is not very gentle though and instead makes him earn his nickname, Daddy Mayce. 

 

I swear, this series just keeps getting better and I'm a little scared of reading the last one, both because I don't want it to end and because it will be focused on Merikh and all that that entails. 

 

Be sure to check the trigger warnings before you read though because it’s definitely not for everyone, especially since Quintessa loves to feel everything, both pleasure and pain. 

 

I got the arc version of The Sacrifice from author Emily Shore in return for an honest review.
