Praise from Beta Readers
A dark modern fairytale that bites in all the right places. A steamy, but ultimately heartbreakingly real romance set in a beautiful, terrifying reality overlaying our own, this debut novel from Sydney Lauro presents a masterclass in world-building.
Amanda Fisher
Picking up Darkling felt like stepping into a magical world, keeping me utterly spellbound and unable to tear myself away. Incredible world-building and enchanting dark romance was masterfully woven throughout the story. I never quite knew what was coming next, in the best way possible, and I can’t WAIT to read the sequel.
