March 6, 2026I might only be 1/3 in book 1, but I can say without a doubt I'll need this in my hands immediately after.

April 20, 2026My only question at the moment is why is this one going to be 688 pages?? I'm 55% way through book 1 and also wondering why it's 502 pages. Don't get me wrong, it IS amusing, but why are these so long????

Review of advance copy received from Edelweiss+

Thank you Edelweiss+ and Scarlett Press for this ARC.
Release date: September 8, 2026
My power couple Arabella and Kaz are back!! The banter is still excellent, the chemistry is sizzling, and Arabella continues to walk Kaz like a dog (as she should 😌). I loved how their relationship continued to grow, becoming more vulnerable with each other.
Arabella - A real good girl gone bad and I loved it, embracing both her light and dark magic. She is done having others make decisions for her. We learn more about her past as well and I hurt for her 😢
Kaz - He is such a complex character. I love how we get more of his backstory, and everything he does and how he acts makes even more sense. All his pain and trauma truly broke me 💔
Sebastian was also a nice addition to the crew! I love my soft, baker plant boy 💚
Like the first book, this was quite long and can get repetitive sometimes with the conflicts but it was still very enjoyable and I had a great time.
Tropes
🖤 Touch her/him and 💀
🖤 Shadow daddy
🖤 Morally grey / Antihero MMC x Bad*ss FMC
🖤 Dysfunctional found family
🖤 “My wife”
🖤 Dark humor
Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️
