"Preferred the author’s other book Kingdom of the Wicked over this book, but it was still an enjoyable and easy read. 🌶️🌶️"

"This book was kind of slow paced, but it was still really good! It took me a while to get into it but once I did I couldn't put it down! Very dark and enchanting, lots of suspense, and very spicy! Enemies to lovers, fake/secret identities, forced proximity, dual POV. The romance was good. I loved all of the games and mysteries. If you liked the "Kingdom of the Wicked" series I would definitely recommend checking this book out, just go into it knowing that it is quite different. While it is technically a standalone, it's definitely best read after the "Kingdom of the Wicked" series. It's set in the same world, so reading the series first will give you a better understanding of both the world and the MMC's backstory. Definitely a nice addition to the Wicked World! Can't wait to see what comes next!"

"I want to note that this book is ADULT and SMUTTY. I first entered this world with the Kingdom of the Wicked series which is definitely more YA. I loved that story and that world so much that I was beyond excited when I saw this book was coming out. I didn’t however plan for the amount of sexual content that came with this book. I am a fantasy reader, not really one for romance and definitely not one for ****. The underlying story and character is what kept me reading even though the sexual parts were quite cringe. I loved the connections that were built, loved the reconnecting presence of the princes of hell, as well as the supernatural aspects of werewolves, vampires, and fae. I think I would’ve liked it more without the **** just because that’s not my cup of tea. I loved the general back story, loved the view we get of hell. I even loved the connection we get to see between the town that Camilla is from and how it is influenced by the introduction to the princes of hell, their sins, and the things that move in the dark. I think that the storyline held true to what we expect when it comes to these women being in close contact with sin.The game they were playing throughout the book kept the book flowing. The secrets that both Envy and Camilla kept from each other, helped to give them layers and he me falling in love with their characters the further we reached into their lives. At times both of them definitely got on my nerves, but why strong willed person doesn’t. You get insight into both Camilla and Envy’s mind as they try to save Envy’s realm.
After finishing the Kingdom of the Wicked series, all I wanted was more insight into the world that was built and the sinful princes of hell. This book definitely delivered on that and I’m excited to see what story we get next about these brothers. If you enjoy the dark things of the supernatural, powers, sin, with some dark twists and turns then I think this will be a good book for you."

"Enjoyed this very much! Says it’s a standalone but don’t read this before kingdom of the wicked if you plan on reading those! You don’t have to read those to enjoy but this book is a spoiler for them!"

"Kerri Maniscalco definitely took the plunge in writing her first purely adult, sexual novel. It was obscenely spicy, filthy, dirty… I wanted to go take a cold shower at some points lol. <br/><br/>I have mixed feelings on this book.<br/><br/>Maybe I’ve just read too much by her and pick up on her clues easily, but I thought the main plot twist was way to predictable and guessed it by the first few chapter. That being said, I still enjoyed the ride.<br/><br/>Only other thing I wasn’t crazy about was I felt that Kerri mayyyy have brought some things into play that happen to be from other REALLY popular book series that have a cult following. For example some of the new character as well as the very last scene of the book. I kinda wish she would have stuck with the original variety of characters she created in her world of the 7 circles but eh it worked.<br/><br/>Even though this is a stand alone, I very much suggest reading the KOTW series prior to this!<br/><br/>Envy grew on me by the last KOTW book but this one definitely had me seeing him in a new hot and steamy light haha"

"While i believe there should be some TW, this book is heavy on the steam. It’s enthralling and exciting. Couldn’t put it down, and can’t seem to find anything like it. "

"I’m not sure how this book jumped ahead of my to reads list but it was worth it. TOTF has 7 demons of deadly sins, vampires and Fae and it’s good. I love that there is a twist that I didn’t see coming. And Envy is a demon i couldn’t help but fall for."
