Synopsis:
She’s everything he wants….
Cold. Heartless. Deadly. Whispers of his name alone bring fear to fae and mortals alike. The Prince. There is nothing in the mortal world more dangerous than him. Haunted by a past he couldn’t control, all Caden desires is revenge against those who’d wronged him, trapping him in never-ending nightmare. And there is one person he knows can help him.
She’s everything he can’t have…
Raised within the Order, Brighton Jussier knows just how dangerous the Prince is, reformed or not. She’d seen firsthand what atrocities he could be capable of. The last thing she wants to do is help him, but he leaves her little choice. Forced to work alongside him, she begins to see the man under the bitter ice. Yearning for him feels like the definition of insanity, but there’s no denying the heat in his touch and the wicked promise is his stare.
She’s everything he’ll take….
But there’s someone out there who wants to return the Prince to his former self. A walking, breathing nightmare that is hell bent on destroying the world and everyone close to him. The last thing either of them needs is a distraction, but with the attraction growing between them each now, the one thing he wants more than anything may be the one thing that will be his undoing.
She’s everything he’d die for….
My thoughts:
5/5 stars.
Look, I have a poor taste in books at times and I really genuinely enjoyed this a lot.
The two main characters were characters which we had met only fleetingly in Armentrout’s the Wicked trilogy. It was very conflicting to swoon over Cardan because of the terrible things we’ve been told he has done in the Wicked trilogy and because of the horrors he inflicted on Ivy.
Brighton was interesting! I liked how she wasn’t the star or incredibly special or how she exelled at everything. This was definitely not the case and it made the character so much more loveable.
The world building was not something we had not seen before as it still takes place in the same locations the Wicked trilogy took place.
I really need to start writing reviews about Armentrout’s books as soon as I have read them, because I forget too much about them too soon.
