Shattered Vows is book 2 in the Midnight Manor series, and I am so glad we got to Kohl's story!

This is a loose modern dark retelling of Rapunzel, and I enjoyed it. Their backstory is so sad, and SO full of miscommunication and lies.

Controlled/Abused girl meets military boy, whirlwind romance, she leaves him at the altar.

My favorite part of this story was watching Rhapsody come out of her shell. She was clearly severely controlled by her mother and emotionally manipulated and abused, and oh man does it show. It hits really hard reading these types of parent/child relationships, but it is so therapeutic and enjoyable to read at the same time. I loved seeing her finally get to experience life on her terms, and realize how things are with her own thoughts. Kohl thought he would be able to resist her for the ultimate revenge, and obviously that failed, but wow I loved him getting to experience her firsts alongside her. It was so sweet, and I loved watching them fall for each other.

The twist at the end was a bit obvious knowing the story of Rapunzel, but I still loved it! I can't wait for Nero's story next!
