Beschreibung

They came to earth―Pestilence, War, Famine, Death―four horsemen riding their screaming steeds, racing to the corners of the world. Four horsemen with the power to destroy all of humanity.
They came to earth, and they came to end us all.
The day Death comes to Lazarus Gaumond's town and kills everyone in one fell swoop, the last thing he expects to see is one woman left alive and standing. But Lazarus has an extraordinary gift: she cannot be killed. Not by humans, not by the elements, not by Death himself.
She is the one soul Death doesn't recognize. The one soul he cannot pry free from her flesh. Nor can he ignore the unsettling desire he has for her. And the longer she tries to stop him from his killing spree, the stronger the desire becomes.
When Lazarus crosses paths with the three other horsemen, an unthinkable situation leads to a terrible deal: seduce Death, save the world. A hopeless task, made worse by the bad blood between the two. But try as she might, Lazarus cannot stay away from that ancient, beautiful being and his dark embrace.
The end is here. Humankind is set to perish, and not even the other horsemen can stop Death from fulfilling his final task.
Only Lazarus can.

This book had everything between 1 and 5 star sections for me. The first almost 30% were great, and then Lazarus suddenly became a mother. I hate that with every fiber of my being. It came so sudden and shocking, and I really don't want to read about FMCs having children, adopted or not, it's just not something I personally like, especially not when it only happens like 200 pages in out of nowhere. So I absolutely hated that section where it was described how she suddenly really felt like he was her son, and her trying to protect him the whole time. In the end, he was absent for most of the book, which is good for me I guess, but I still felt weird about her being a mother, and ultimately always thinking of her son and how to protect him. It did shift the whole book for me. And even if I did like reading about children and being a parent, I feel I would've needed more time to get to know him. Heck, he was described as a baby at first, but she immediately handled him like a toddler, which was super confusing, and only later did we find out that he's somewhere between age 1 and 2. I really couldn't feel much for him when they were finally reunited in the end. I'm also not a fan of the whole "the MMC gets super villainous again at the end" thing. The book worked hard to make them fall for each other despite everything, so seeing it all go to waste for a while until the ultimate, final shift in the end, doesn't feel good. That's a smaller complaint though, and probably wouldn't have mattered to me as much if I wasn't already annoyed because of the whole son ordeal. Their first sex scene was absolutely amazing though, 5/5. And I wanted to see them move to the beach house together in the end! Not read about everyone dying.

Ein schöner Abschluss, aber wirklich mitgerissen hat es mich leider nicht. Deutlicher Pluspunkt waren die Auftritte der anderen Horseman - vor allem Famine. Insgesamt passiert einfach nicht viel bzw. immer wieder das gleiche, aber auch Death habe ich in mein Herz geschlossen.
