The mc irritated the living daylights out of me and just . . . I don't know - something felt off for me.
This wasn't for me at all, and I love mythology-based stories; I was not too fond of the writing style, so . . . Jennifer Armentrout is not the author for me.
Los Hematoi provienen de la uniĂłn entre dioses y mortales, y los hijos de dos Hematois de sangre pura tienen poderes divinos. En cambio los hijos de Hematois y mortales, no. Los mestizos solo tienen dos opciones: ser entrenados para ser centinelas, cazando y matando Daimons o convertirse en sirvientes en las casas de los puros. Alexandria prefiere arriesgar su vida luchando antes que limpiar retretes, aunque puede terminar en los barrios bajos de todas formas.Hay reglas muy estrictas que los estudiantes de Covenant deben seguir. Alex tiene problemas con todas ellas, pero especialmente con la regla nĂşmero 1. “Las relaciones entre sangre pura y mestizos están prohibidas.” Por desgracia, Alex se siente atraĂda por Aiden, un sangre pura irresistible. Pero enamorarse de Aiden no es su mayor problema – mantenerse viva lo suficiente para graduarse en el Covenant y llegar a ser centinela si lo es. Si no cumple con su deber, se enfrentara a un futuro peor que la muerte o la esclavitud: se convertirá en un Daimon y Aiden será su cazador. Y eso, no es nada bueno.

My eyes snapped open as the freakish sixth sense kicked my fight or flight response into overdrive.

'I don't want to know about love.'
'But you should, my child. You need to know about love. The things people will do for love. All truths come down to love, do they not? One way or another, they do. See, there is a difference between love and need. Sometimes, what you feel is immediate and without rhyme or reason.' She sat up a little straighter. 'Two people see each across a room or their skin brushes. Their souls recognize the person as their own. It doesn’t need time to figure it. The soul always knows... whether it’s right or wrong.'
People do the damndest things when they’re in love.
It’s just words and words mean nothing. Only action does.
It was just a hug, but gods, it meant so much. It meant everything.

But for right now, the sand felt warm on the island off the Carolina coast and the air still smelled of summer.

I couldn't get into this at all . . . DNF at 10%.
