From Publishers Weekly
The fast-paced third installment of Bast's Dark Magick series (after 2010's Cruel Enchantment) is a sexy thrill ride flawed only by its melodramatic cliffhanger denouement. Accountant Charlotte Bennett is terrified and furious when brooding Unseelie Fae Kieran Aimhrea uses irresistible magic to draw her to the magical city of Piefferburg, hoping her ancestral memories will open the city's wards and free the Fae. Anyone Kieran falls in love with will die horribly. Charlotte despises the Fae, so there's no risk of that... right? Watching their reluctant slide into love is part of this intricate novel's pleasure, along with dastardly betrayals, complex subplots, and skillful world-building. Bast's writing packs a punch, offering humorous lines even in the blackest moments. The premise of the curse wears perilously thin, but the rest of the tale weaves a sinuous spell that will leave readers eager for more. (Apr.)

In this installment of the Dark Magic series, nothing is left lacking. The story flows beautifully and unfolds like a gentle flower. I simply could not put the book down. I read the entire thing in one weekend. The only negative of the book is it ended. Anya Bast weaves another incredible novel. I cannot wait for the next installment.
