If you want something short but something that packs EVERYTHING in it, please read this. I adored the additions made to the story because in less than 150 pages, Divinity has truly captured every element perfectly!

You get depth, world building, backstory, relationships, spice, etc and it’s so well done.

If you love paranormal romances, consider devouring this just as I did. Elina and Darren will become your favorite MCs I promise 🤭

“I couldn’t face you—not like that—not when I became the very thing that took the person you loved the most away from you… Not when I became a danger to you.”

Oh, Darren 😩 I love me a good paranormal romance, especially between a werewolf & its hunter. I’m only mad this wasn’t a full blown novel as I wanted more of Elina & Darren! The way he yearns. The way he knew she was his amoriei. I just needed more of them. Loved the dynamic & found family with Darren & his pack also. You can feel the sincerity & love with their bonds through Divinity’s writing. If you need something quick, easy to ready, but still has a lot of depth, I definitely recommend this novella. Can’t wait for the next installment!

“The low pitch of his voice is not just a sound—I can feel it, vibrating from his chest into mine. Something yawns to life inside me—an answer to the tug. A want revived from the ruins of time.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.75

This was truly such a good time. It’s a quick novella, but Divinity still managed to build relationships and character without it feeling rushed. I need so much more time with Elina and Darren. 😩 The way this man yearns. UGH. I highlighted the hell out of his monologues. We love a down bad man. 🤭

i was in a mood for a little paranormal treat and let me tell you this delivered exactly that!!

it's a fast paced novella but still full of so much and i feel like we only scratched the surface. i want to specially mention the backstories, the world and the way emotions were shown: real and beautiful. grief as a theme always gets me 🥹

it's been a while since i've read paranormal romance but the story was really easy to get in to.

i ate this up so if it wasn't clear, would recommend 🫶🏻

I was hooked and drawn into this story right from the very beginning. The world felt very vivid and I want to spend more time in it. The characters were richly developed in just a short amount of time. I loved all their banter! I’m really interested to read more from these characters and in this world!

I laughed so hard and smiled! I mean our MMC knits as a fiber artist I am absolutely obsessed with this! I can't wait to see what other works Divinity will bring into the world and share with us!
