Summary
Shadows always return to the darkness.
A cage.
Owned by a ruthless Assassin Lord, Scarlett Monrhoe and her two sisters have been trained since they were children to torture and take life. They are the most feared trio on the continent, but they are also wild and unpredictable. A tragic night has Scarlett finding herself locked away in a noble's household, trapped and forgotten, until she's ready to fall into line.
A choice.
Until the day she is presented with a job. If she completes the assignment, her payment will be something she has coveted for 10 years. Revenge against the Fae Fire Prince who brutally killed her mother 10 years ago. Is she willing to sacrifice her ideals for retribution?
A mystery.
But when children begin disappearing from her home, all her plans are put on hold as she races to save the most innocent. With the help of old friends, a jilted lover, and a mysterious newcomer who claims the magic of the Fae is possible in the mortal lands, Scarlett delves into the darkest corners of the world. Forgotten secrets will come to light, and she will discover the darkness extends far beyond her own kingdom.
Lady of Darkness is book 1of 5 in the Lady of Darkness series. It is a new adult, dark fantasy romance novel. It features slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers troupes and may have triggers of love-hate themes, sexual scenes, references to sexual trauma, violence, and jealous/possessive themes. It is part of a series and does end on a cliffhanger. Fans of Sarah J. Maas, Jennifer L. Armentrout, and Raven Kennedy will fall in love with this series.

Loved the book
Overall loved the book, good performance.
I could be wrong but I’m sure there’s a mistake initially, whereby someone tells her something but supposedly doesn’t.
Sadly, towards the end FMC got on my nerves a bit and there was a scene (in the tower) that I wanted over and done with . But was eventually won around in the end.

Not bad, but didn't grip me
I tried this as I've seen it recommended on Booktok several times in the romantacy genre. While I get that it may work for some, it just didn't grip me. It all felt a bit too stretched out and main character didn't have enough agency for me. I finished it, but I don't care enough to read the next one. The narration was fine, but not great.

Better than ACOTAR
This book had me from the start. The story is well paced, characters beautifully written, and has a few surprises in there. I am completely in love with the world Melissa has created and truly can't get enough of it. I can't recommend this series highly enough. Full of assassin's, magic, Fae, enemies to lovers, royalty, vampires and so much more.

Holy shit Scarlet is so annoying
Honestly guys, she’s so hard to get behind. She NEVER seems to learn her lessons, it’s infuriating and it makes it almost impossible to enjoy the story at all….which does have some interest to it. But holy hell, girl, get it together. **rolls eyes so hard**

wanted to quite halfway
it started quite good, gave one the impression of an independant strong female lead.. but reached a point where the protaganist just became infuriatingly apathetic, emotionally unstable and just unlikeable tbh.
all and all, if you like trauma-prn, half a book of mental breakdowns while diffrent kind of guys trying to Calm the person over and over and over again - than this is the book for you.
if you don't like that sort of thing and would prefer a strong female lead that don't need constant saving and calming, then I'd recommend something else.
