My Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 Stars

Quotes to Remember:

• Roses have both petals and thorns, my dark flower. You needn’t believe something weak because it appears delicate. Show the world your bravery.

• There’s nothing better than a little danger dashed with some romance.

• Pretend I am as capable as a man? Please, sir, do not value me so little!

• Diamonds were everything I hoped to be; beautiful, yet containing unimaginable strength.

• My heart raced. Part of me wanted to draw him into a hug and heal his wounds, and part of me wished to ferret out all his secrets and piece the puzzle of him together this instant.

• Those who deserve respect are given it freely. If one must demand such a thing, he'll never truly command it.

• Monsters were supposed to be scary and ugly. They weren't supposed to hide behind friendly smiles and well-trimmed hair.

• I’d agreed to meet him here only to go over case details. Now he was doing that infuriating thing where he’d inevitably guess my secret plans, and I’d have to murder him. In front of all these witnesses, no less. What a pity.
