Description
Dark lord, demon spawn, prophesied realm destroyer.
With a demon for a father, Damien Maleficus Bloodthorne’s destiny could be nothing but nefarious, and with the completion of his most vicious spell, Damien is on the cusp of fulfilling the evil inevitability all of his dark machinations have led to.
And then, her.
Bubbly, obnoxious, blonde.
Harboring secrets of her own, a tiny yet troublesome thief calling herself Amma completely upsets Damien’s malevolent plans when she mistakenly gets chained to his side through magic, forcing him to drag her across the realm. Killing her would fix things, of course, but the nauseatingly sweet Amma proves herself useful on Damien's unholy crusade and then proves herself the source of something even more sinister: feelings.
Will Damien be forced to abandon his villainous birthright to help the tender thorn in his side? Or will he manage to overcome the virtue Amma insists on inspiring and instead cut it out at the heart?

10/10 slow burn romantasy Romcom😍
Was soll ich sagen ? Throne in the dark hat mich positiv überrascht. Ich liebte Damien sofort. Amma ist süß , blond , gutherzig aber nicht naiv und dumm. Es gibt VIEL Spannung zwischen den beiden. Das worldbuilding ist gut und verständlich. Oft ist das Buch auch witzig und ich musste lachen. Sie erleben viel zusammen und stoßen auf ihren Hauptweg immer wieder auf kleine quests. Das Ende war besonders spannend und voller Plot Twists und ich bis gespannt zu wissen , was amma und Damien als Nächstes vor haben.
The beginning of the book was a little hard for me to get through, especially the very beginning. Learning about their world and their gods without those being interesting to me at the time wasn't easy. Also, as a non-native speaker, I sometimes had trouble understanding everything - despite understanding all the words, and despite not usually having this problem while reading english books. My second, more personal problem was, that I'm a big villain romance fan, so I have certain expectations, and Damien doesn't really met those, not even in the beginning. But after that, the book is amazing. Damien isn't a "true evil" villain, and there's quite a bit of comedy in the book - which isn't usually my thing - but in this case, some things made even me laugh, and I like that the story is still serious even with all the jokes within. Damien's mix of caring and still evil is endearing and in itself understandable, the way it is written. Emma, too, is a great character, they're both interesting and you can really feel how well they connect with each other. Love their banter and how they treat each other. And I really, really love the way Damien's appearance is written. The way he's described, the image of a perfect, hot, villainy guy comes easily into my mind. So perfect! Also, the slow burn is slowly burning.
