Berea said: " My favorite read of 2025 (read it twice, first in kindle then audible). The magic. The world-building. The mystery. The action. The romance (which admittedly isn’t a huge part of the story but I enjoyed it still). Just chefs kiss. "

Berea’s Quotes

“So I’ll leave you with this—grief is the price we pay for love. Would you trade any of your pain if it meant we lost even a second of our time together? I know you well enough to know your answer. You would endure a thousand years of torment for one more kiss, one more dance, one more anything. Do not let fear of loss stop you from living, Lorenzo.”
― Sadie Kincaid, Lorenzo

“You were mine yesterday, today, and tomorrow.” He gently kisses my forehead. The tenderness a contradiction to his threatening words. “And you will continue to be mine forever.”

“You don’t need me.” He’s so up in my face that I’m forced to step back, but when I bump into the toilet, there’s nowhere for me to go but down. His grip moves from my wrist to my chin. “You are everything I need right now.”
― Clarissa Wild, Sick Boys
