I absolutely loved everything about this book and really hope there is a sequel! When I want to keep track of a series, I always mark it on my calendar to make sure I don't forget about it, as there are so many other books out there. I will be putting this on my calendar to look for a sequel, or even just to see what else this author is writing.

Lucien is part Mr. Darcy (Pride and Prejudice) and part Rhysand (A Court of Thorn and Roses series). You know he is up to something, not sure exactly how evil it is, but you love him anyway. It's so easy to ignore all those red flags in books that you would be yelling at your friend about in real life. But, really, besides all the evil planning and everything (lol), he had less red flags than so many other characters I read about this year. I ranted in quite a few reviews about that. Lucien was pretty great that way.

I definitely could tell that the author was a fan of Pride and Prejudice, with a few casual quotes from the book (nothing you will notice unless you know the book). They never refer to the book, just use popular quotes in conversation. I would not say this is anything like Pride and Prejudice, other than Lucien reminding me a bit of Mr. Darcy. I am sure tons of readers will disagree with me on that point. Not even sure what it was, just a feeling.

Calliope is attracted to men and women, so if you have any issue with any same sex attraction, here is your warning. Really is sad that I need to include that, but I hate for the author to get lower ratings because people get upset because there are gay characters in the book.

Loved the book so much! Thanks so much to NetGalley for the free kindle book. My review is voluntarily given and my opinions are my own.
