Eve
I fell for the one person I should have run from—the one who destroyed everything. My world. My sanity.
He stole my life…and then he stole my heart.
Now I’m broken. Lost. Haunted.
Even hidden away, I can’t escape him. His voice whispers in the dark, his shadow follows me everywhere.
This asylum holds secrets even darker than him. In this place, monstrous deeds don't stay buried. And the devil never lets go.
Emery
I held heaven in my hands, and the world ripped her from me.
Now there’s nothing left of me but obsession and vengeance. I’m a broken man—a dangerous man—with nothing to lose.
Except her. My Eve. My salvation. My undoing.
Even death can’t stop me. Eve is mine. She’ll always be mine.
This time, I won’t just take her back—I’ll burn the world to keep her.
And together, we’ll finish what we started.

Oh sweet Eve. Sweet Emery. How my heart broke for you both—but was then put back together. Eve had so much going on and she grew to be even stronger than she ever thought. Emery grew to love and care and grew emotionally strong for Eve—and for himself. Their love for each other may not be conventional and may not make sense to most; but it made sense to them and that's what mattered. I enjoyed this book almost as much as the first—almost. There was love, heartbreak, revenge, justice. And every piece fit perfectly. This duology will forever be one of my absolute fucking favorites.

After the cliffhanger from the first book—Eve was taken to a “recovery center” but while there she was beginning to see her own ghosts. Her own phantom of Emery. She was struggling to see what was fiction and was reality. But while at the center she felt something was “off”. Something wasn't right. She needed to escape. Emery, was discovered by people he never thought he'd see again. But he was determined to get back to his Eve. No matter who got in the way. But those people had other plans first. To seek out revenge to those who traumatized them as kids— they want Emery to help, the same way he got his personal revenge on Eve's family 9 years prior.

Thank you so much @loradarcauthor for creating such wonderful books. Creating characters I grew to love and care so much about. Thank you for allowing me to read both books before release. I'm forever grateful and you have a forever reader.
This book picks up right where Book 1 ended. I couldn’t wait until Eve and Emery reunited. I knew her uncle was a POS. Lena was a good friend but she did kind of annoy me a little bit with her hostility towards Emery. If Eve is fine around him then Lena should probably take the hint and shut up, right? Lol. I did enjoy the first book more, this one took me a bit by surprise when Michael and the others came into the mix. Cassidy pissed me off, there’s no other way around it. She got exactly what she deserved. I feel like Emery should’ve hunted Leslie down but that’s just me. Also not how I expected Eve to end up but aye at least she’s with Emery now, right? RIGHT?! Overall the duet was great, very entertaining and it was well written. I 100% recommend this duet if you’re a dark romance lover like myself.
