Review: Nectar of the Wicked by Ella Fields

Nectar of the Wicked by Ella Fields
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I am so glad Fairyloot decided to do this book for their Romantasy book box because it got me to read it and LOVE IT!!!  I had no idea what was going to happen when I dived into this book, but Flea/Tullia (which name do I use?!) took me on a, quite awful honestly, adventure and I'm reeling with everything she has been through.  

I understand completely on why she needed to know who she was and she was willing to do WHATEVER it needed to get there, and nothing was going to stop her, but the amount of torture and agony and abuse she has gone through to finally understand why she was abandoned as a baby?  I just wish someone could have told her more about why the fae land is an awful place to go to.  They just said it's bad but that was it, no details, no reasoning.  Give the girl more information so she can better stop herself from putting herself through that torture. 

I honestly can't believe that her father did that to her.  That he tortured her with no care in the world.  He said she was no daughter of is, so I guess in his mind he was just treating her like a spy, and since Flea/Tullia's mother wasn't his mate, he didn't have any emotional connection with her since she looked just like her mother.  But all she wanted was a family and a home.  

And instead she was used as a pawn not just by her true blood family, but also by Florian who started this mess in the first place.  Lying to her, deceiving her, but also caring about her WAY more than her father did.  I wish someone was just open with her and told her what was going on.  I think now, after the torture she went through, she will be far more demanding and controlling of her life, as much as she can by being married to Florian. 

So, yes, this book got my blood pumping not only because of the spice between her and Florian but also about the way she was treated and used.  This book will be permanently in my brain because so much happened and I'm just stunned by all of it.  This book definitely has triggers so please be mindful of that before diving in.
