there she is

If you love TOG and ACOTAR, then this is definitely your next read! Will she let the fire prince help her, or will she burn it all down

Melissa K Roehrich

Owned by a ruthless Assassin Lord, Scarlett Monrhoe and her two sisters have been trained since they were children to torture and take life. They are the most feared trio on the continent, but they are also wild and unpredictable. A tragic night has Scarlett finding herself locked away in a noble's household, trapped and forgotten, until she is ready to fall in line. Until the day she is presented with a job. If she completes the assignment, her payment will be something she has coveted for ten years: revenge against the Fae Fire Prince who brutally killed her mother. Is she willing to sacrifice her ideals for retribution? But when children begin disappearing from her home, all her plans are put on hold as she races to save the most innocent. With the help of old friends, a jilted lover, and a mysterious newcomer who claims the magic of the Fae is possible in the mortal lands, Scarlett delves into the darkest corners of the world. Forgotten secrets will come to light, and she will discover the darkness extends far beyond her own kingdom.

I don't really have much to say about this one. It was easy to read and so much fun. I fell in love with all of the main characters, swooned over the romance, and got invested in the plot and the world.

My one drawback was that the plot was very predictable. However, it was the impact of the plot and its twists that I thought made the author shine. She has a very good grasp of the emotional element of her characters and the reader. It made it very easy to get invested in. 

I am EXTREMELY excited to continue the series as the second book is setting up to be this author's version of A Court of Mist and Fury: lots and lots of healing and character growth. Overall, I really recommend this for people who are looking for a good time with a romance/fantasy book. It gave me everything I was wanting at the moment, and is promising to give me more!

“She moved as if she had indeed been caged and confined, but was now freed to unleash hell.” 

I love love love power women in rage. this was so f’ing good I’m so pleasantly surprised 

There was a lot of plot twists I didn’t see coming, and some I did, HOWEVER there was one where I literally gasped out loud and had to sit on my couch in silence for a second.

I will say it has some lines and plots similar to ACOTAR, and TOG but had enough differences to make it still a good fantasy novel. I personally think if you read enough fantasy fae enemies to lovers, they all start to blend together anyways in some points. Still loved a lot though 

 Sorin has earned himself a spot in my top 5 book bfs

It was not good at all. The chemistry between the main couple was not there, and it was extremely predictable as to what the “twist” was. The plot was like any other faetasy. Every guy was in love with her… and she felt very flat at times and suddenly extremely different in ways she would react.
