My Rating

If you’re looking for a romantasy book series, this is a perfect read. Since this is the sequel to Belladonna, I’ll try not to spoil too much of the first book, though there may be a few spoilers. The sequel picks up right where the first book left off, with the duke murdered and Elijah Hawthorne accused of the crime.

We’re quickly introduced to Fate, Death’s brother, who’s been searching for the love of his life—Life herself. He believes Signa is the reincarnation of Life, but Signa is deeply in love and devoted to Death. So, along with trying to clear Elijah’s name, she has to deal with Fate’s attempts to win her heart and pull her away from Death.

This time, we also get Blythe’s POV, which I loved. She quickly became my favorite character. She’s determined to prove her father’s innocence and still curious about her brother’s disappearance. And let me just say, the enemies-to-potential-lovers vibe between her and Fate was amazing. I actually ship them more than I do Death and Signa, but what can I say—I’m all about enemies-to-lovers relationships.

The writing was great, and the story hooked me from the first chapter. I couldn’t put it down and had to know what would happen next. I love the magical elements, and we got to learn more about Signa’s parents. In the first book, she was just discovering her powers, but in this one, she really owns them.

“You may have reign over the dead and dying, but let’s not forget that it’s my hand that controls the fates of the living.”

As I mentioned earlier, Blythe was a force of nature in this book. She was smart and cunning, which is a side of her personality we hadn’t seen before. I was really happy the author chose to include her perspective, especially since she was important to the plot of the first book. It’s great to have a fantasy romance that follows two smart, strong, and magical female characters.

The ending was incredible and well done. It set up the third book perfectly, and now I can’t wait for it to be released. I did see where the plot was heading early on, but I wasn’t mad about it since I was hoping for that outcome, and I’m glad the author went that route.

Overall, this series has a chokehold ob me, and I think my love for it will keep growing. If you’re not into fantasy or romance, you probably won’t love the series. But I still think it’s a wonderful gothic fantasy with romance. It could’ve used a bit more spice, but that’s just my opinion.
