Glass Houses by Sinister Styx – Review by Ayla Phipps

Glass Houses by Sinister Styx
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I honestly was not sure what to expect with this book. This being the first thing, I have read by Sinister Styx I went in with an open mind after reading the warnings. The story is about a married couple Ivy and Falcon, knowing they love each other Ivy suddenly starts feeling uneasy in their marriage. Surprisingly the couple shows a great deal of love for each other knowing they belong together but with the twist of a long-standing curse they can never truly be happy. The book is told from both Ivy and Falcon’s perspective, both showing and feeling their love to the other. Planning in his drunken rage after being accused of being unfaithful by Ivy, Falcon sticks to his plan only to later be filled with guilt and shame wishing he could take it back. Ivy shattered and filled with devastation and betrayal is tricked by an unlikely person later turned against her she wishes to remove him from the world. She knows that he is the person that twisted the doubt in her marriage and knows it can only be repaired with him gone. Finishing the book in a very short time I was let feeling stunned and heartbroken for Ivy and Falcon. All they want is to love each other but they know something is wrong because they always end up hurting each other and, in the void, once again seeing their memories flash before them. I look forward to reading more of the authors work for something so short they pull you in and hook you in the twisted worlds they create caring for the broken characters.
