Summary From Goodreads:

When seventeen-year-old Evie Dasher is caught up in a raid at a notorious club known as one of the few places where humans and the surviving Luxen can mingle freely, she meets Luc, an unnaturally beautiful guy she initially assumes is a Luxen...but he is in fact something much more powerful. Her growing attraction for Luc will lead her deeper and deeper into a world she'd only heard about, a world where everything she thought she knew will be turned on its head...

#1 New York Times, USA Today, and internationally bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout returns to the universe of the Lux in this brand new series, featuring beloved characters both new and old.

My Review:

I'll be honest, I was hesitant when I first started reading this book. I was so excited for it when I first heard about it, but once I had it in my hands, I was nervous. Would I like it? Had I built it up too much in my mind? But once I started reading it, all my worries were washed away.

I was in  L O V E. I forgot just how much I adored the Luxen books. But oh boy, the feels came back full force the moment I turned the page.

 I loved Luc and Evie, and I love how the title actually makes sense because it's mentioned at one point during the story.

 I love how feisty and strong Evie is, even when she gets thrown for a loop. I loved how sarcastic Luc was. I also loved the fact that we got to see some of my favorite characters from the Lux series (read: Daemon. We get to see DAEMON). I'm so excited that this series is a thing, and I absolutely cannot wait to see what happens next.
