Queen Reviews

   I love my Dark Romance and this definitely fits into that category. Nero is a crime boss who is barely civil and spends most of his time killing and evading the cops. Payton is his exact opposite. She timidness and sunshine wrapped in a nice introvert package. All it takes is one time for them to take a chance on something different and they both fall harder than bricks through tissue paper. I'm usually not a fan of instalove but with the way their characters are it works perfectly. I'm hoping that through the other books in this series we see Payton grow a little more. I love that she's Nero's almost polar opposites but it would be nice to see a little of his savagery rub off on her. I enjoyed this book as I have just about all the books I've read from this author. I look forward to reading King!!    The spice in this book was great and nearly instant. There were some cringe moments with the wording but I know sometimes that can be hard and it didn...

       Whew,  this book was long. Like, let me check what percentage I'm at long. I definitely think there was a lot of it that could have been cut out and the story would have been better. It had moments where it shined through the meaty parts but then there was also times where it bogged down really badly. I liked the story of Nikolai and Meko. It just didn't feel like a romance for a lot of it.  It went from one place to another quite often and I didn't really know what to focus on. The issue of the necromancer, the disappearing vampires, the journal,  Mekos mom, the Romance... it was just a lot. Nikolai gave me severe whiplash. Like Meko even pointed it out and I felt it as the reader. Because of that I never felt like there was a point you could see where they fell for each other for real. I don't know if the whole sunlight thing was addressed in a previous book but the fact that there was no explanation about that was... different....
