Do you ever start a book that’s so amazing that you forget to even eat because you can’t put the book down long enough to make something? This is one of those books! I was so absorbed into this story that I ignored almost everything that was happening around me. The apocalypse could have happened and I wouldn’t have known, because I was too busy swooning over Fox and Bjorn. Gena has really done it again! Fox is funny and witty and Bjorn is by the book and honorable. I love how the two are so different and yet so alike. Watching them fall in love made me fall in love as well and there’s nothing like a story that makes you feel every emotion while reading it. I felt heartbroken over this couples sad pasts and joy when they were having happy moments, anger when Bjorn was being stupid (no spoilers, but I wanted to punch him in the face at one point), and excitement when they finally realized how much they meant to each other. The action scenes were on point and so were the steamy scenes! 😉 I love how Gena threw in some obstacles that kept me guessing about how they would overcome them. Sometimes I would be holding my breath without even realizing it! I also nearly had a heart attack while reading the cameo of William and Sunny since I’ve been impatiently waiting for their story to come next. This book really has everything and I am so happy that we are able to see new and returning faces. Every Lord of the Underworld book I read makes me feel like I’m inside the world and living through the pages and I love it! Thanks Gena for another wonderful story!
