I'd never particularly liked humans, but I'd never wanted to kill one. Until now. Hidden in a kingdom that hates witches, I'm forced to hide what I am. With my sister working in a secret dark magic club, and our family's shop gaining unwanted attention, things couldn't be worse when the notorious witch hunter, Damian Shaw, comes to town. When my sister shows up dead, and my family's name is called into question, we're forced to adopt new aliases and leave the home we cherished. As I watch my life fall apart, I vow to destroy the hunter responsible, but his punishment would not be swift. Death was too easy. Redforest is a quaint town, with a church, pretty shops, and people who despise witches. When my family and I move in, I set my sights on the Shaw family, quickly learning everything I can about them. Damian's son, Elijah, is the hunter's greatest pride. His heir. His confidante. The only family he trusts. I come up with a plan. I am going to shatter every good thing in Damian's life, starting with his son. My goal: make Elijah Shaw fall in love with me, turn him against his father, and ruin everything in his life from the inside out. With my family and heart on the line I must be careful, or I may end up becoming the same monster I am trying to kill.… (altro)

So a few weeks ago when I got this book I went to read a little just to see what it was about so I could do a spotlight post! The next thing I knew it was 13 hours later & I had read the whole book! I really enjoyed the main character Victoria! Even though she is a witch & obviously I am not! Which is totally unfair! I found it really easy to relate to her! The emotions that you feel from reading this book at times are heartbreaking & at other times happiness! Victoria doesn't really trust anyone other than her sister & her other siblings but the one sister she was closest to is gone. The grief she feels is a strong presence throughout the book! Will she be able to see beyond her grief & pain to do the right thing? Well you'll have to read the book to find out!

I really loved parts of this book, but the story as a whole sadly just didn't jive with me.
I love a good witchy, romantic read with a villainous main character, but the relationship between Victoria and Elijah was just disappointing and lacking.

So, Victoria is portrayed as this morally-grey witch, dark in all her witchy ways and to be honest, that's why I wanted to read this book, but she just didn't live up to that hype for me. She continually lost her edge with the hot and cold, back and forth dance she kept playing to string Elijah along for her own vengeance. It truly made me lose interest. Which is completely a bummer because the familial relationships were much more enjoyable. When the two main characters driving the plot fall flat though...eh.

While I am bummed this book missed the mark for me, I will check out the other book(s) in the series.

Thank you to Victory Editing NetGalley Co-op for the e-ARC to read and review honestly. ( )
