But seriously, since I update once a day it hardly seems like that big a deal... more like a titillating speed bump as opposed to an actual cliffhanger. The romance in this book was immaculate, the spice was a nice bonus because it wasn't too much, but it wasn't too little. The friendships and side characters really made you feel something, the prophecy and the murder mystery really kept you engaged in the story. Overall, it was amazing. The cliffhanger will have you salivating for the next book.After the brutal murder of her twin sister, Aurora ‘Rory’ Raven spends years forging herself into a ruthless vigilante killer. Before reading on please keep in mind that all of my opinions on this book, are simply that, personal opinions that are relative to my preferences! I am absolutely HONOURED to have been allowed the privilege of reading an ARC of The Umbra King.

Now onto the romance. Firstly, I love Rory so much. She’s a strong morally gray ASSASSIN who finds love in the prison realm with the Umbra King. Caius is moody, grumpy, powerful and has shadow magic. I love shadow magic (cough, hands). This book is so steamy and loved the two of them together. The bunch of secondary characters: they felt flat and unimportant. I can’t remember any quality about them.This book also had so many fun side characters, but the highlight was definitely the angel Samyaza aka Sam and Caius's best friend. He is lethal and imposing but somehow also so endearing and lovable. I can't wait to see more of him in the next book.

It is highly recommended to use the Star Cannon to stun The Umbra, and may be necessary to survive the Shot of the Century ability.

Caius. My morally grey, sugar loving, lowkey a golden retriever on the inside with those he loves MMC who I love and adore and want one of my own. He can be a villain alright, and yet, you still look at him and are like, "YES, YOU GO KING." He is such a loving man when he cares about someone and seeing his character unfold was so beautiful. But also, don't think he is not the ruthless Umbra King because he is. He is vicious and I completely root for him. It is not recommended to use the Star Cannon when The Umbra is not using its Shot of the Century, as you may not have enough Charges when it actually does use it, causing you to lose health.
