With Veil diaries done and long waits between Ghost Birds, this series promises to fill a very similar (beloved) place for me. This is what I needed in my life right now. Find Me is book 1 out of 4 in the series.*** Contains violence, graphic killing, foul language, and sexual content. ***WARNING This is a reverse harem romance.

There is definitely nothing wrong with that however, the two series are extremely similar. I feel like it is very safe to say that this book was inspired by the Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead but with a greek twist. If she fails in her duty, she faces a future worse than death or slavery: being turned into a daimon, and being hunted by Aiden. But falling for Aiden isn’t her biggest problem–staying alive long enough to graduate the Covenant and become a Sentinel is. Unfortunately, she’s crushing hard on the totally hot pure-blood Aiden. Alex has problems with them all, but especially rule #1:Relationships between pures and halfs are forbidden. ![]() There are several rules that students at the Covenant must follow. Seventeen-year-old Alexandria would rather risk her life fighting than waste it scrubbing toilets, but she may end up slumming it anyway. Half-bloods only have two options: become trained Sentinels who hunt and kill daimons or become servants in the homes of the pures. Children of Hematoi and mortals–well, not so much. ![]() ![]() The Hematoi descend from the unions of gods and mortals, and the children of two Hematoi pure-bloods have godlike powers. ![]() ![]() ![]() The DPC said that it did not initially propose adding a fine to the suspension order, but that four other EU supervising authorities disagreed and the record fine was included after a ruling by the European Data Protection Board (EDPB).
