Blurb:
All Reia ever wanted was freedom.
Known as a harbinger of bad omens and blamed for Demons eating her family, Reia is shunned by her entire village. When the next offering is due and the monstrous Duskwalker is seen heading their way, her village offers her an impossible choice – be thrown into the prison cells or allow herself to be sacrificed to a faceless monster.
However, he is not what he seems. His skull face and glowing eyes are ethereal, and she finds herself unwittingly enchanted by him.
All Orpheus ever wanted was a companion.
Each decade, in exchange for a protection ward from the Demons that terrorize the world, Orpheus takes a human offering to the Veil – the place he lives and the home of Demons. The brief companionship does little to ease his loneliness, and their lives were always, unfortunately, cut short.
He'd thought it was a hopeless endeavor until he met her. She’s not afraid of him, and his insatiable desire deepens
within every moment of her presence.
But will Orpheus be able to convince Reia to stay before she’s lost to him forever?
My Thoughts:
OMG YES! Everything about this was perfection, from the world-building to character development I was hooked. I can't tell you how fast I went through this book, it turned into one more chapter welp it's now six in the morning and I have to get to my first class on campus which is 45 minutes away that good! I have zero regrets about how late I stayed up to read this and to add better onto this, the author herself is the sweetest fucking person! I will forever be an Opal fan no matter what she puts out your girl is going to snatch it up like it's going out of style!
The spice is 10 out of 5!
The plot is 20 out of 5!
