This book took me by surprise. I wasn’t expecting this to be paranormal. The stunning cover grabbed my interest. The blurb hooked me. I am darkness. I am sin. That is exactly my kind of book. This book is undeniably a super slow burn. That’s not normally my jam but it worked here for me. The story needed this pace and needed to unfold the way it did. I’m not going to drop any spoilers in this review. I’m a spoiler queen. I love spoilers. I actively look for them and sometimes put off reading books until I can find adequate spoilers. I know this isn’t the norm. If you hate spoilers skip this paragraph. This part of the review isn’t for you. It’s for my fellow spoiler seekers. Go in blind. I know! If you thrive on spoilers that’s a hard ask but some books are better when you go in blind. This is one. So from one spoiler lover to another, my advice is go in blind. This book is safe, there’s no cheating and an HEA. There is an OW who tries to interfere but hero is completely uninterested and shuts her down hard at every attempt. The hero is completely dedicated to heroine and remains entirely faithful despite specific circumstances I won’t elaborate on.just know he’s all in on team Gabriella and never sways from that even when things are against them. It’s really romantic. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Captivating,dark,sleek and steamy! This story is full of mystery. Not just the plot, but the characters. I will say the snake stuff is pretty creepy! Great love story.
