My review:
Action-packed from the very first page, I think I may love this book just as much as I loved Dragon Bound, and that was A LOT! I loved the intrigue, the romance, the humour, and most of all I loved Niniane and Tiago. Their UST was palpable in the beginning, like you knew they had secretly lusted after each other for the past 200 years – which they probably had. Tiago was just… *shivers*… and some of the things he said made me weak at the knees. Rawr. Definitely a new book boyfriend of mine 😉
Niniane, aka Tricks, was also pretty kickass and gave as good as she got. I loved her humour and generosity, and her fondness for bubblegum-flavoured vodka and pretty clothes. I don’t often like the heroines in PNR as much as the heroes, but here I did, and I didn’t want their story to end. I hope we get to see plenty of them in upcoming installments.
My rating: 5/5
