*DEEP BREATH IN*

Holy.

Moly.

Guacamole.

I think this is the best Demonized book yet, you guys. I  S W E A R.

I don't know how long it has been since I've read a book that I've just absolutely been in love with. I also don't know how Annette Marie manages to consistently write amazing books. The sizzle definitely ramps up in this book (F I N A L L Y) and I laughed, I cried, I got angry. I just. It was amazing.

The characters all have so much depth, and I love to be able to read this book and have it intertwine with The Guild Codex and characters from the new, not yet released series, but at the same time, you don't HAVE to read the others to understand what is going on.

Zylas is so precious. I will admit, even though I loved him from the start, I had my doubts about his intentions and was very suspicious of him, but after this book, I am looking at him in a whole new light.

Robin is growing and figuring things out oh so slowly. And sometimes it actually hurts me how timid she still is, but I like what is happening to her, and the friendships that she has found.

EZRA my smol bean. I love that we get to see more of him in this book, and how he's kind of making friends with Robin and Zylas and Amalia. I love it so much, I don't even have the words to describe it.

I'm so excited to see what is going to happen in the next book after all of the revelations that this book unearthed. And I'm also kind of scared because of what happened when... well, I won't spoil it for you.

Thank you SO much to Annette Marie and Dark Owl Fantasy Inc for allowing me to be on your ARC team!

Initial response when I finished this book in the middle of the night:

Oh my lord. This book. I think it's my fave so far. Better review when it's NOT 2:30 in the morning.

Y'all. I just. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I need more of my smol bean, okay?

I love how Tori and Robin's worlds crossover and I can make connections when things are mentioned. It is the BEST. I am dying to see what is going to happen in the next book, that doesn't come out until APRIL *SOBS* was whatshisface talking about about my Zak-y poo when he mentioned that he was looking for a Druid?

I love the relationship with Robin and Zylas, how it has grown and it is evolving, although I am dying to see how everything is going to work out. My mind is spinning a mile a minute and it is killing me that the next book is going to be the last one for Robin and Zylas. *Edited to add* Thank you Annette for correcting me and letting me know I get TWO more books in this wonderful series!! *HEART EYES*

*Deep breath in*

I better stop now before I start going on a spoiler rant.

10 out 0f 10 would recommend for the snark and the tension and the cute baby kitty.

Thank you so much to Annette Marie and Dark Owl Fantasy Inc. for allowing me to read an ARC of this beautiful book
