I cursed Amo’s name at the end, and if you read it, you will likely curse her too. There is a lot going on in his head most of the time, and you can just see his brain working all the time. He is tough to like, but I think that he likes it that way, and purposely makes himself unlikable. He holds all the secrets in the world and he will weaponize them, if necessary. You remember how I said Meraki is devious and secretive? Well, she looks like a neophyte when it comes to Niko. It is hard to like or dislike her all the time, especially as the story unfolds and we learn more about her, her past, and her future. She is just a person who is filled with flaws and foibles. I don’t think that she’s a good person or a bad person. There are some very not nice people in this, and Meraki and Niko both find themselves wrapped up in all kinds of things. And there is a lot that is dark, and some that is very dark. There is a lot that happens in this book. He sees Meraki, and he’s as drawn to her as ever.

He’s been in a different chapter for the last several years, but things have happened that means he has to come, and it’s an open secret that he is going to be the pres of the home chapter. Niko, AKA Antichrist, has patched into the Seven Knights MC. She hears the roar of a motorcycle, and it’s Niko. Everything seems to be going OK, until all of a sudden it stops. She also has her dream dance academy, and she uses it to help underprivileged kids to dance and to go somewhere with their life. She still has her good friends Cece and Mira. We get the idea that it isn’t a perfect relationship, but she says she loves him and he says that he loves her. Meraki ends up in an open relationship with Luca. But something terrible happens, and Niko leaves. They can’t seem to stay away from each other, even as they are tied to other people. They are all tight, but Meraki and Niko have a special connection. She is hanging out with the guy she’s kind of dating, Luca, and her best friends, Niko, Cece, who is dating Niko, Ari, Niko’s twin brother, Jer, and Mira. We get flashbacks to the past throughout. It starts out 2 years in the future, then jumps back a few years in the past, then we get to the present time. This book does jump around in time a bit. My husband just looked at me with his eyebrows raised, since it seemed to come out of nowhere. I often joke that I curse the name of the author when I get to the end of a book that just left me wow, but I really did say “WTF, Amo Jones, just fucking fuck you” when I read the last words in this book. And, boy howdy, is my brain still all in a tizzy over Antichrist. So when I say that this book fucked my mind over but good, trust me. OK, if you’ve read the blog for a bit, you know that I like dark and mindfucks.
