Listen... I'm not someone who needs spice in my books to enjoy them... and honestly, I often hate pointless spice that isn't necessary to the plot or character development. But some books need it, and this was one of them. These characters have a very complicated enemies-to-lovers type relationship. Think... Jude and Cardan from The Cruel Prince. They are SO resistant to their feelings for each other that you as the reader don't feel much for them. You don't feel the connection like you should. So, the spice adds a lot to their relationship growth because it's really the only time you get to see them actually connect in SOME way. So why would the author choose fade-to-black here? It was so fade-to-black I wasn't even sure if they even did it or not... and if it was even good. This book is about an incubus, it's an adult novel, AND the verbiage they used in other parts of the book was not PG... so why? We got NOTHING... like, less than you would get in a YA novel.

I'm going to read the last book because these books are short and I'm invested enough to keep reading. but if I don't get SOMETHING with this couple, I'll be pissed.
