She’s swooped into the world of darkness, intrigue, magic, and imminent danger as she grows dangerously serious feelings towards Desmond – all the while negotiating those ‘I owe you’ beads on her hands. What the two characters battle here is their feelings towards each other, and Callie in this case, discovers several truths about herself and Desmond. Turns out, he’s the king of the night kingdom who needs Callie’s help in order to solve major mysteries in his realm – that’s ofcourse not earth. But he did not make a move then, ofcourse, a thorough gentleman that the bad man is. A friend of mine had an issue with this – that Des knew her since she was an kid. Years later, Des appears in her life and there’s nothing but chaos in her life. However, as they grow closer, a tragedy (and some magic) tears them apart.

She’s a minor, and he must be like a couple of hundred years old.

One fateful night, Callie calles on The Bargainer (Desmond) so she can get away with murder (literally).

And yet, I myself was drawn into the plot.Ĭallypso is a siren, Bargainer is fae. The reason of jumping into this whole bargaining-because-you-need-to-see-that-person-at-any-cost is a little cliched. And while the world warned her against the bad guy, she could not help but to be drawn to him. So The Bargainer is seemingly the bad guy, Callie is someone who has struck endless bargains with him, and with each bargain, she has beads added to a bracelet into her hand that can never be removed. However, I know of people who have despised it due to a few tropes in it. Rhapsodic is one of those fast-paced entertainers that you cannot seem to put down once you start. There’s a catch or two, but I think you’ll like this paranormal romance. A lot of fantastical elements have been thrown into this for that feeling of being transported into another world. Quick, racy and intriguing – that’s what this book is.
