★★★★★ "I'd like to report a crime. Her name is K.A. Linde and she writes fantasy like she wants us crying in public. [...] This book took everything I loved from the first in the series--enemies-to-lovers tension, banter, politics, power struggles--and turned the volume ALL the way up. [...] And that ending [...] I sat in silence like someone had slapped me with the hardcover."

★★★★★ "The story is fantastic. I love the world K.A. Linde creates and [t]here are always amazing twists and turns. [...] I enjoyed this book so much. I highly recommend this series and am so ready for book 3."

★★★★★ "Kierse and Graves are back with scheming, thieving, and... one bed! I love the flow of the writing, the snarky relatability of Kierse, the interesting dynamics between the monster species, and of course the banter."

★★★★★ "The world feels rich and layered, and I love how quickly we're thrown back into the drama and danger. K.A. Linde always knows how to deliver twists and tension right out of the gate, and this was no exception."

★★★★★ "Book 1 blew me away, book 2 has obliterated me. Graves and [Kierse] had me kicking my feet."

★★★★★ "The dynamic between Kierse and Graves is even more intense, and [...] it makes it all more exciting. Kierse is still sarcastic and relatable, and the banter is still top level. There's some fun twists already. [...] Loved book one, but this one already feels like it's leveling up."

★★★★★ "Oh, this was just great!"

★★★★★ "Oh My! I devoured this book! [...] There's twists and turns, betrayals, reveals...for every question answered, another pops up. This was a fast pasted, non stop read...and those last several chapters!!! OMG! I was gripping my kindle so hard, I honestly didn't know what was going to happen. I am fully invested and can't wait for the next book. If you love a good enemies to lovers, forced proximity, found family, tortured here, spicy! romance, with magic, Celtic mythology, and monsters in NYC...then read this book/series."

★★★★★ "Wow, just holy freaking wow! The last quarter of this book had me pacing and that ending was diabolical; my heart was in my throat."

★★★★★ "When I say I loved this book that doesn't even begin to describe it. It took over my mind for days and I still can't get the [...] ending [...] out of my mind. [A] masterclass in creating a story that will keep a reader enthralled, and it had me falling off of my couch at the end of that last line."

★★★★★ "This book sucked me in and would not let me go. I enjoyed every second of this. This book starts out just like the last one but in a different type of setting and I loved that consistency."
