Book: After Dark: A CREATURES OF THE NIGHT NOVEL by JV Hibbs
Reviewed by Sheila Lopez
Rating: 5/5
After Dark was a dark romance full of action, enemies to lovers, secrets and a dangerous organization hiding far more than it should. I had so much fun with it because it had the darkness, obsession, spice, and chaos I love, while still having a lot going on beyond the romance.
Xiro was a whole mess, and I could not get enough of him. He was morally gray, possessive, obsessive, and definitely not easy to trust, but that was exactly why I liked him. Sable was just as badass in her own way, and I loved that she could stand up to Xiro and challenge him instead of letting him control every situation.
Xiro and Sable’s relationship was messy, intense, and far from simple, which was exactly what I wanted from them. I was not looking for a perfect couple, and I liked that their feelings did not suddenly fix everything around them. Watching them move past being enemies while still keeping that tension between them made their relationship even better for me.
After Dark gave me all the action I love, along with all the spice we needed. I wanted to see what would happen next, and by the end, I was happy Xiro and Sable got the ending they deserved. If you enjoy a darker, messier romance, I think you will enjoy this one.
