***

You think it's safe to walk alone at night.  It's not.

You think the only threat is other humans. It's not.

Monsters are real. Demons are real. Vampires are real. 

And I'm about to become one of them.

My name is Arianna Spero. I was an ordinary girl, living an ordinary life, until my mother lapsed into a coma.  Now, I am her only hope. She made a deal with the devil, and on my 18th birthday he came to collect. But there's a way to save her. There's something the princes of hell want more than my mother.

Me.

So I signed my soul away and promised to pick a prince to marry. I would take the blood oath, become one of them, and give them an heir. I would become a princess of hell, and my mother would live.

I expected fire and brimstone.  I expected pain and misery. I didn't expect beauty.  I didn't expect magic.

I didn't expect love.

But the princes are keeping secrets from me.

Secrets that could shatter everything. 

Ratings and reviews

The story is good, but it's too... preachy. There can't just be a trans character - we have to be coached how to think and feel about it. The lead character can't just suffer/experience a physical/sexual assault, we have to be told the right way to respond. The preachiness of the identity politics detracts from the experience of just living the story. I support strong diverse characters... Just leave the reader alone to admire/enjoy/like/dislike them for who they are, not what they are.

If a 4.5 were an option, that's what I would rate this book. It took me a couple of chapters to really get into it, but once I did, it was a fast read... Didn't want to put it down fast. I really enjoyed the variety of characters and the take on the supernatural. This book was another surprise for me and I can't say I've had many of those in all of my reading... with this writing duo now getting the credit for surprising me twice. Karpov Kinrade continue to create unique worlds for their stories and interesting and different plots. Why a 4.5 instead of a five you ask? While I love their writing, enjoyed this story, and look forward to what's coming next, I didn't LOVE It. I REALLY, REALLY, liked it, but didn't love it. As a P.S. I would not relate this book to Twilight in any way shape or form. First of all, the writing quality far surpasses those books (and I will admit, I read them), and secondly, I see no relation in characters or plot. In other words, this book is much better than Twilight. At least I think so.

At all was the authors unrealistic transitioning. I felt like the character was too accepting and not surprised enough which made her unrelatable . as though the events that took place were a normal thing. I didnt like that at all. But besides that i really like the basis of the book. But the Character could have been written better.
