Summary

Sometimes, to destroy evil, you have to embrace it . . .

The night Nora's parents were murdered, something ancient and malevolent stirred beneath the waves—and it never let go. No one else felt it. But Nora did . . . she still does. The darkness whispers her name, curls through her thoughts, tempts her with release. On the edge of the Mackinac Bridge, Nora is ready to surrender. But fate has other plans.

Saved by Kairos, a powerful celestial, who claims she's his fated mate, Nora is thrust into a hidden world of otherworldly beings and ancient prophecy. Her past—wiped away. Her future—bound to a war that began long before she was born.

A century ago, the demon queen Nyx stole everything from Nora. Now she wants her soul. But Nora won't go down without a fight.

To save the world—and the ones she loves—Nora must unlock the terrible truth of who she is. Even if it means binding herself to a dark king who promises love . . . and carries deadly secrets.

As Heaven and Hell collide, Nora must choose between the mate who holds her heart and the darkness that calls her name.

Because the God of Shadows is coming. And he won't stop until she belongs to him.

This book is so addictive I bought the audio book to listen to when I wasn't able to read. I really really loved the mmc's voices and the fmc for the most part, but would have loved a little more emotion. That's just a me things because I am a drama queen at heart and the emotions in this book are BIG.

It will leave you addicted, wrung out, emotionally damaged and you will be left pacing thinking 'I need more!'

We start the book with our girl Nora who is at the crime scene of her parents death...but everything is not what it seems. And why is it only she can see it? I loved the dual POV's. The strong friendships and the betrayal. We never know who we can trust and spend much of the book in vague confusion about certain characters due to the memory loss she has.

This book will rip your heart out, not apologise and serve it on a platter to you. The ending 🤯 has left me pacing and slightly cursing S.R Hartley for not giving the answers I need. Like right now!

100% recommend this book. However there is suicidal ideation so please please check YOUR trigger warnings. Your mental health matters.

who can we trust?
