Publisher's Summary

Enter at your own risk—and discover the greatest show unearthed in this explosive, darkly imaginative debut fantasy…

For humans, the circus is a place filled with wonder and amazement. For Harrow, though, it’s a place to hide from those who slaughtered her entire clan. Disguising her abilities as part of her act has kept her true identity safe for years.

Until he arrives.

A strange new attraction with no name, no memory of who—or even what—he is, let alone an explanation for his odd yet deadly powers. But beneath the layers of anger and isolation, one glimpse into his inky eyes reveals a soul that calls out to the loneliness in her own.

And so she chooses him.

Harrow is drawn to the darkness, to her insatiable need to soothe the beast who threatens their very existence. But with every secret she unlocks from his past, another from hers whispers free as well—luring enemies who will stop at nothing to get their final revenge on Harrow. And she’s afraid she’s given them the perfect weapon against her…because he’s not what he seems.

But maybe it’s time they finally learn—neither is she.

Narrator was good, story was not

Got this book because it was pretty in store so figured I'd give it a shot. Almost DNF'd multiple times.
There was many if the common tropes, and lots if poor decisions that maje you wanna tear your hair out.
Also little to no world building on a concept that could have been so interesting but was just vaguely mentioned/glossed over.

Stockholm Syndrome

This book featured a very unhealthy romance. Half of my book club members stopped reading. We agreed a story about the actual circus would have been more interesting.
