This is an original storyline to me, with sirens, magic, gods, kings, the sea and so much more.

The world-building, the slow burn between Imogen & Theo; Mild spice, but simmering heat throughout.

The entire book was so, so good, but part 3 was uber suspenseful!!

I adored this book!!

Rowan & Sloane are a delight and hilariously witty.

A nice slow burn that starts as a friendship, but once the spice hits, boy did it hit!!! 🥵🥵🥵

The gory scenes are wonderfully detailed 🔪 & are great for a spooky season read!

Read your tw’s!!!

Dives into domestic violence, rape, the cycle of abuse, the escape. Also mentions child rape.

A true dark romance with a few spicy scenes.

Carlton has such a great way with heavier themes.

My fifth Carlton book…yes I am actively in therapy:P

She’s done it again folks: read it for the plot. All SMUT AND I LOVE IT

There’s representation of incest abuse, abandonment, abuse & trauma as usual. Done very well.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

Baldree did a wonderful job setting the scene and being detailed about it. The characters were all so great, with their own quirks. A lovely, fast, cozy read. Happy ending, veryyyyyy light spice. Cute & straightforward.

Definitely started falling off in the second half. The ending picked up a bit and left excitement for the next book. Still a younger voice at that stage in her writing (obvi). Very light spice.
