Synopsis (Goodreads):
Vengeance is irresistible…Thoughts on Heartless: I will freely admit that slightly feral heroes with a taste for blood work for me. When they find their special someone and said special someone is pretty much as bloodthirsty as them? YESSSSSS. Now I'm going to say that Kaysar didn't earn the moniker "the Unhinged One" because he's full of sunshine and glitter and BOY DID I LIKE HIM.
Kaysar the Unhinged One, fae King of Midnight, can drive anyone to madness with his song. A ruthless warrior forged in hate, he lives to force his enemies to their knees. He will stop at nothing to succeed—even abduct and seduce his foe’s beloved bride, ensuring his own child one day sits on the male’s throne. Except, his prize escapes to the mortal realm before the first kiss, her heart transplanted into a mortal beauty with dangerous secrets…
Chantel “Cookie” Bardot is a professional gamer girl great at trash talking, bad at peopling. After a long awaited surgery, she begins to morph into a powerful fae princess. Catapulted into a strange land ruled by a cruel but seductive villain, she must battle flesh and blood monsters and navigate royal intrigues. But the true danger is Kaysar, whose every wicked touch tempts her beyond reason. Should she run…or descend into the darkness with him?
The guy has issues. His issues probably have issues. He's barely housebroken and Chantel/Cookie is the perfect match for him. Well, not at first. It takes a while for Cookie to figure out who she really is, but once she does...BAM. Those two are gloriously blood-splattered together.
On the downside, all those issues I mentioned earlier? Yeah, Kaysar has to work his way through them. And those issues are of the viciously awful variety, so that takes time. They guy's kind of a mess. He might have started out planning to use Cookie to further his vengeance, but he soon figures out she means more to him than he thought she would. And then he has to weigh whether or not he can give up his vengeance to find a life with her. No lie, that doesn't go nearly as smoothly as you might think.
And Cookie isn't willing to take second place to anything (which I firmly endorse!), so she needs to get Kaysar to see her for the prize she is before things pass the point of no return.
A whole lot of danger, even more blood (and guts. probably.), a deeply divided man, a woman who's finally figuring out how to live, and enemies that just won't quit. Did I like? I SURE DID!
