“When you said my name... the stone within me suffered a crack. And I don't regret that it did, because I had forgotten how vital it is to be known for who you are, and not for who you pretend to be. I had forgotten how good it is to be seen, even with flaws and scars. I wanted you to see me.”

I fell in love with the cover of this book and was drawn to its premise of Faustian vibes. I‘ve always loved reading about the occult, but the excitement I felt in the first couple of chapters in this book quickly died down. The story dragged on without any real focus on the main event, and went into a love triangle instead. This book was more relationship than the dark vibes I was looking for…I didn‘t hate it but it wasn‘t what I hoped for.⬇️
This was a vivid and luxurious read. The hotel had so much detail and excitement. I loved the characters. This was a much more exciting story than I expected it to be. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

There was a fond smile on his face as she watched the librarian pore over Evgeni‘s collection. “You‘re looking at that library like you want to crawl into bed with it.”
She didn‘t quite share her husband‘s passion for antiquarian books, but she understood it. She understood that if you cracked Rhys open, he would probably have paperback pages inside him instead of organs.
This was a fun fantasy, heartwarming, and charming albeit a bit hokey for my tastes. Kindness should be the way of the world and we should all have a friend like Caz.
