Lydia and her storyline were just plain boring

Your heaven doesn’t belong in my hell.
Love love love. This was a perfect way to start my year of reading. This book was SO GOOD, I was on the edge of my seat. Read it at work then when I got home instead of cooking dinner I sat and read the rest of it. In one day. I need more of Storm, Lydia and Sloane. That ending? UGH I need answers and I need MOREEE. Who did what? Why are there so many secrets between the Flynn’s and the Leary’s? February cannot get here fast enough!

Stormy
No no no.. No!! Omg… If you like dark thriller -esque romance, read this. NOW.
KV, if it’s not Sloane… I can’t promise I won’t rip book two in shreds.
Also.. all the nods to other writtings, the absolute poetry of storytelling. Devoured is an easy word I can place with this book.

Couldn’t put it down…
I couldn’t put it down, but I find that’s the case with most books I’ve read by KV. I was intrigued by Storm when we first met him in DTBY and he is everything I thought he’d be. I also love our dark angel Sloane and their chemistry is palpable. I cannot wait for book two!

Didn't like Lydia at all.She is desperate to hang on to Storm from something that happened years before and she thought about wanting him but i didn't feel that attraction towards her from him.Storm is in love with Sloane it's obviously and he thinks she's too good for him.The ending was like wtf? My poor girl Sloane has had her heart broken 💔

“What happened, baby?”
“Call me that again,” he whispers in my hair.
Every nerve in my body seems to light up with his husky voice. “Baby.”
“Again.”
I swallow hard. Then I say, “My baby.”
And he doesn’t let go.”
your honor i am not okay because i can't wait to read the next book. that cliffhanger has me at the edge of my seat.

I really enjoyed this story.
I loved Sloane, and the way Storm is so clearly and obsessively in love with her.
I think I perhaps would have liked Lydia too if she was in a different book, or had her own story. Instead she just feels like she’s in the way of Sloane and Storm. And I’ll be really annoyed if it’s Lydia who ends up with Storm.

I started this so confused, moving forward I was more confused.
Then I had few answers, very few. I have more questions by the end of the book but damn KV this was good!
4.5 stars ⭐️
Storm, please. Really. Please (word) for only one woman!
Your heaven doesn’t belong in my hell.
