This blonde, drop-dead sexy, and unapologetically grumpy demon? My heart's been swiped, and he's the culprit. He's the poster child for perfection - you name it, he's got it!! This story is told mostly at the same time as book one, just with two side characters from that book, and i feel like stories like that never really work the best for me. Even though this completely stands on its own, and has its own very different plot points and points of view of what is going on during this time! There’s danger and plenty of monsters that are after Rae and her only defence is Leon who initially wants her soul in return for his protection got to say I was on the edge of my seat in apprehension over just what could happen here. There were some side characters that I loved and some that I hated. Let's start with the ones that I hated. There was Victoria and Jeremiah Hadleigh who were so fake and only befriended Rae because they needed her for the sacrifice. I liked Inaya, but she was so blind to what was going on with Rae, but I guess that was partly Rae's fault with not telling her best friend what was going on. I also enjoyed Zane, a friend of Leon's who is also a demon and Juniper (the one he claimed), the sacrifice that got away. We didn't see much of Juniper, but I have a feeling from her small appearance that I'm going to love her. I loved Everly and Callum, though we didn't see much of them and can't wait for their book!

Knows that a group of people are out to kill her, knows exactly who they are. Goes to a party with them and accepts drinks from them. Gets roofied and has to be rescued.

Kinks/Fetishes Within: consensual non-consent (CNC), breathe play/choking, bloodplay, spit, needle play (body modification fetish), pain play, fear play, public play, bondage, restraint, spanking/impact play. Every path I’d taken, every seemingly inconsequential decision, had led to this moment. The choice between two eternities, a choice that was mine alone. I’d chosen. I knew to whom my soul belonged, and it wasn’t to a merciless God. we also need a minute of appreciation of harley’s writing style. even tho it’s the dark romance, leon still gave the safe word to rae(h), just like manson did give it to jessica in “the dare”. it’s rare that a dark romance doesn’t have non-con sex scenes and lately i became very disturbed by it. i can’t hep but think about how the mmc doesn’t respect his woman enough to stop when he was told to. i’m glad that harley writes only consensual ones(in the books i read so far). her heroes respects the heroines’ choice and it’s so hot and precious💓💝💘💞💗💕. This is a paranormal romance with some horror and lots of heat. Totally new author for me and got to say I was impressed I loved this and it was mostly because of Leon I adored him in all his dominant demotic sexiness.

Compared to book one, this book had somehow WAY more depth in the characters personality and pasts, especially Juniper’s. While I absolutely adore Rae, Juniper has my freaking heart and soul!!Mercy," he whispered. He made that simple word sound beautiful, like poetry, like something tender. “That's all you have to say, and the game will stop immediately. Make sense?” I was a killer. A hunter. Not a protector. Not even for tiny mortal girls with no sense of self-preservation. As I mentioned in my review of Her Soul to Take, most romance books with horror themes don't hit it for me as a horror lover, but Harley Laroux gets it. The horror elements, the demon lore, the violence and descriptions of these awful beasties in the woods, all of it is so on point and I love it. It has the best folk horror vibes and I'm here for it always. If you're a horror lover who's considering trying out romance (or a romance lover who's considering trying out horror!), I genuinely feel like this series is a fantastic merging of the two. your blood, piss, sweat, cum – i want it all. mine. abandon your inhibitions now. you won’t have a use for them anymore.”
