Kitt is pure perfection. ♥♥� I adore him. And Iris. And their letters are everything. Everything was perfect for me until these last couple of chapters (view spoiler)[ with Forest (hide spoiler)]. It all went down, and I felt nothing at the end of this book. Nada. I hate it when it happens to me. I waited a few days before writing this, to settle my impressions. In a nutshell, I adore this book... just not these last chapters....more

Sienna is a very cheerful girl who lives a simple life full of fun and relaxation. Or so it seems. The utter opposite is hidden under the mask of the always sunny and reckless girl. The loss of her parents in her childhood left an indelible mark on her... and the experience taught her that laughter is always the best way to cover up sadness. When don Ajello asks her to marry a man of his choosing and be a spy for him, Sienna agrees because she doesn't want to burden her brother one day and wants to have some purpose. She's great with languages, has no problem learning a whole new language in a couple of months, and is the perfect candidate for what Salvatore Aiello has up his sleeve.
Drago Popov is the head of the Serbian criminal organization. He is determined not to agree to the marriage that don Ajello wants to arrange, but when he meets Sienna he realizes that she is not what she appears to be and this intrigues him enough to change his mind.
Although he knows his new wife is probably a spy for Salvatore Ajello, he cannot remain immune to her cheerful personality. It was wonderful to watch them fall in love with each other and overcome their inner fears. I highly, highly recommend this book....more

Još jedan sjajan roman Zorana Petrovića koji je svojom specifičnom mešavinom istorije, folklora i fantastike izgradio prepoznatljiv stil.
Smeštena u BJoš jedan sjajan roman Zorana Petrovića koji je svojom specifičnom mešavinom istorije, folklora i fantastike izgradio prepoznatljiv stil.
Smeštena u Braničevski okrug u drugoj polovini 19. veka, priča donosi spoj detektivske misterije i horora, sa jakim osloncem na srpsku mitologiju i narodna verovanja. Đorđije Rafailović, doktor patologije i istražitelj kneževe garde, suočava se sa nizom zagonetnih nestanaka dece, što ga vodi na put koji je podjednako ličan i profesionalan.
Autor ostaje veran svom prepoznatljivom narativnom stilu � jezik je autentičan i bogat, opisi su detaljni, a atmosfera jezivo živopisna. Scene sela, šuma i zloslutnih vodenica oslikane su tamnim, gotovo slikarskim potezima, dok naracija ostaje nenametljiva, omogućavajući čitaocu da se potpuno posveti tokovima radnje. Ilustracije koje prate svako poglavlje dodaju dodatni sloj vizuelnog užitka i savršeno dopunjuju atmosferu romana.
Ljubitelji prethodnih autorovih knjiga prepoznaće motive koji su postali njegov zaštitni znak � preplitanje mitova, legendi i natprirodnog sa ljudskim sudbinama. Đorđijeva introspektivna putanja pruža emotivnu dubinu, dok njegov sukob sa mračnim silama donosi napetost koja ne jenjava do samog kraja.
Veoma sam uživala u priči jer sam već upoznata sa autorovim stilom pisanja i mislim da će ovaj roman obradovati sve fanove domaće fantastke.
So okay, I must admit that this story is so cliche, I mean everything is so predictable but if you love billionaires and obsessed guys like Callum, thSo okay, I must admit that this story is so cliche, I mean everything is so predictable but if you love billionaires and obsessed guys like Callum, this is your perfect read....more

Maybe I made the mistake of rereading the first book before starting this one... because there was no need. Everything is retold in the first 20%. The rest of the story... nothing exciting. Yeah, there are some new discoveries and fights, but nothing exciting for me, even some parts about Wynter's coven that keep repeating are boring......more
