Sometimes I read a lot of books in a short space of time, they kinda blur into one another. So just for future reminder - this book is about Carrow (a witch) and Malkom (a vampire demon) - Ruby is used as blackmail, and Carrow goes to fetch Malkom from some demonic wasteland - brings him back, he feels betrayed, vows to hurt her/doesn't trust her - but then he sees she is worthy of his trust. The end. Viv, you liked it a lot - despite there being violence, and Carrow having her wrist snapped by Malkom - but you didn't cry abuse, and at no point, did you feel it was portrayed like it was cool thing to do. It had an alpha male raped as a kid, and a female neglected as a kid. Best Kresley Cole you've read so far...
