Promise of Darkness
Bec McMaster
3/5
This book was pretty good, it was a quick and interesting read that was mostly centered on romance. It's a free Amazon e-book, so I think it was especially good for being free. That being said, it was super predictable. I feel like every "twist" or plot event of any significance was kind of marked out way before it was said.
Iskvien and Thiago are forced together at Iskvien's mother's insistence, as terms to seal a treaty. Vi is told that it's the perfect opportunity for her to murder the Prince of Evernight. His level of familiarity surprises her though and she quickly becomes confused as to who the real enemy is.
Predictable but enjoyable. Like it says in the main description, it's based on Hades and Persephone. Which is the best Greek romance of all time if you ask me. Compared to that, this is a little weakly fleshed out. Doesn't mean it didn't have some great moments, but it wasn't something that was anything unique. It was also very reminiscent of ACoTaR, if you really liked that one you'll either love this one or consider it a lame imitation.
