Loved this! It had a unique take on vampires, it felt gritty and intense, the mystery was great and I loved the characters

3.5 🌟 read for me, did enjoy the book from this author the writing style was good. Loved the story will be on the lookout for more from this author in the future

I couldn't put this book down. I read it in a day and now I'm anxiously waiting for the next one.

The story is an interesting twist on the typical vampire/romance novels out there right now with extensive backstories for the vampires themselves. The descriptions and word choice throughout the book that just keep you hooked. I loved the characters and I appreciated the author not being afraid to have tension last between main characters instead of immediately trying to fix everything.

The one thing I will say though is I was little disappointed by the "insta-attraction" between the FMC and the MMC. It sounds like this is something that will be expanded on later though so I'm hopeful for it. I adored them both and I can't wait to read more of their story.

I was definitely in tears at the end and my heart was shattering. A very well written last few chapters leading to one heck of a cliffhanger for the next one! I absolutely cannot wait!

Reminiscent of A Discovery of Witches, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and supernatural tv shows of the early 2000s, I *thoroughly* enjoyed this book. I’ve been impatiently awaiting the vampire-lit renaissance for years, and am so pleased to be able to count this read among the gradual uptick.

The story was intriguing enough that I sped through it in only a couple of days- the characters were compelling, the world familiar but not distractingly modern, and although some of the twists were expected, I still found myself on the edge of my seat. I can’t wait for the next instalment in this series, and will be watching its progress closely. I can easily see it becoming a future soothing, spooky favourite🤞🏻

Big thank you to netgalley and jamie for allowing me to read this arc 🦇🩸
