Summary
Emilia is reeling from the shocking discovery that her twin sister, Vittoria, is alive. But before she faces the demons of her past, Emilia yearns to claim her king, the seductive Prince of Wrath, in the flesh. Emilia doesn’t simply desire his body, she wants his heart and soul—but that’s something the enigmatic demon can’t promise her.
When a high-ranking member of House Greed is assassinated, Emilia and Wrath are drawn to the rival demon court. Damning evidence points to Vittoria as the murderer and she’s quickly declared an enemy of the Seven Circles. Despite her betrayal, Emilia will do anything to solve this new mystery and find out who her sister really is.
Together Emilia and Wrath play a sin-fueled game of deception as they work to stop the unrest that’s brewing between witches, demons, shape-shifters and the most treacherous foes of all: the Feared.
Emilia was warned that when it came to the Wicked nothing was as it seemed. But, have the true villains been much closer all along? When the truth is finally revealed, it just might end up costing Emilia her heart.
My review
I’m officially wrecked. I don’t like this author anymore. She is fond of tearing out the hearts of her readers. The spice is definitely more in this book, and the passion and the love and the ripping out of my heart. We’ve met some other Princes of Hell in the previous books, but this book just had more of them, more background, more screentime, more everything. This book humanized Wrath in a way that is absolutely the best and he and Emilia are like the most badass couple I’ve read about. The ending is perfect, Emilia and Wrath are perfect, and did I mention Wrath is perfect? Right, so now you know. If you haven’t read this series yet, this is your sign. READ IT AND LET IT RIP YOU TO PIECES. There is going to be a spinoff, right? Please? Pretty, pretty please?
My favorite quotes
“Love and hate are both rooted in passion- strange how that line becomes blurred over time.”
“If you die on me now, I’ll hunt you down and drag you back.”
