Being half incubus sucks sometimes. Sure, the sex is great, but getting hounded by females gets old pretty fast. Especially when the only one Calix cares about has gone missing, propelling him into a downward spiral of depression and abstinence.
Trapped by a wannabe mad scientist inside a nightmare of her own, Ava longs to be free, even if it means going back to the only male she regrets having betrayed. All she needs is a single opportunity to lead the way.
Calix should hate Ava for the way she deceived him and his brothers. Yet, when she shows up looking like she’s been through a hell of her own, the sweet relief over her return battles the bitter sting of her betrayal, and Calix can’t bring himself to turn her away. Not to mention, an incubus who’s starved himself of sex for too long is a detriment to everyone—including his brothers—and the way Ava commands his body is exactly the release he needs.
Unfortunately, thanks to the lunatic who held her captive, she’s now a walking death trap to any male that tries to bed her. But danger is closing in, placing Ava’s life in jeopardy, and if Calix doesn’t find a way to control his virile urges, he might just be her deadliest threat.

Calix is half incubus, which pretty much guarantees him any female he wants. Unfortunately for him, the only woman he wants is Ava–the woman that betrayed his family–and she is currently M.I.A. That doesn’t stop him from longing and searching for her. Especially now that he requires feeding and it seems that she is the only one who can fulfill his need.
Ava has found herself in the worst predicament. She is trapped by a crazy man who keeps injecting with the Sang virus for some weird experiment. She doesn’t want to find out what the final outcome will be, she needs to escape before that happens. Especially when there is a room full of Sang next to hers. Despite betraying the Wrath demons, that is the only place she can think of where she might be safe.
I was so excited when I finally got my A.R.C. because it did not disappoint. I’ve said it before and I will continue to say it, the storyline just gets better and juicier with each book. I wasn’t sure how Calix and Ava would reunite especially after the way she betrayed them. The chemistry between these two was absolutely explosive! That connection gradually intensified and let me tell you, you will not be disappointed by the steam in this book one bit. Things are rather tough for these two, especially when Calix learns that the only woman he wants is off limits due to the injections she received. Any man who dares to sleep with her will die.

He pressed her head against his chest. “Hear that? Bastard only beats for you, Ava. I’ve tried living without you, and I can’t. I won’t”

I am totally addicted to this series. I loved seeing Logan and Calla, and the rest of the characters again from the previous books. Some parts of this book were intense with a bit of angst. I don’t want to give much of the story itself away. I just really enjoyed it and was pretty glued to the book that I didn’t want to put it down. I wasn’t sure how I would feel about Calix, but I ended up loving him. I also really liked Ava and thought Calix and Ava were perfect together. She was quite a strong character, definitely not a doormat of any kind. But let’s talk about Ferno because I mean I need me some more of him! He was so awesome in this book. I am more curious than ever about him.
I can keep saying everything I enjoyed but all I will say is I highly recommend this series. If you haven’t started reading it, you really need to. After the way this one ended, I cannot wait to read the next part. Things are going to get more interesting.
