I DIDN’T THINK i HAD ANY MORE SPACE IN MY HEART TO LOVE ANOTHER BOOK THE WAY I LOVED THE FIRST TWO BOOKS IN THE SERIES, BUT NICOLE MADE SURE I FOUND SOME SPACE.
Malakai is one of my most favorite male characters, ever, and i loved being in his head, moving forward, and growing.
This is really an everyone grows book, and it was an amazing continuation of the series.

My Rating: 4.75⭐️
Spice Details: Several Open Doors Scenes
Summary: Picking up from the devastating events at the end of The Shards of Ophelia, the crew is falling into different habits to cope with the losses. But old problems and new arise as Ophelia and her friends embark on journeys that will test the bonds between them and their faith in their world. Curses, budding romances, and legends swirl together as they try to keep the Mystiques together, find healing in their own lives, and move forward in an effort to take down a tyrannical queen.
My Thoughts: This series does not quit. I cannot get enough of this found family in Gallantia. Each book amidst the battles, quests, and romance we are immersed in a journey of self-healing and discovery. I have loved watching these characters grow! The new characters have continued to fold well into the group, and each book I have new favorites to root for--Trials was no exception. The swoony and spicy sides of these MMCs had me weak in the knees, and I CANNOT wait to continue to follow these incredible characters. Let's just say I need that next book now!

Ophelia’s adventure continues…and it gets pretty intense in more ways than one 👀
What I liked:
This is one of my absolute favorite found families. Ophelia, Jezebel, Tolek, Cypherion, Santorina, and Malakai have my entire heart. I love the newer characters that we met in book 2, and got to know better in this book (Mila, I’m looking at you 👀)
A book that has trials/an adventure in it will always peak my interest. The trials that Ophelia and the gang went on were so stressful, and yet so fun.
Ophelia wading through her grief, while also trying to lead her people and go on these trials. Tolek being his wonderful, adorable self. Anytime he opened his mouth I was either smiling, or swooning.
The tension between Cyph & Vale. I adore Cypherion always, and I am so interested to see how things go with him and Vale.
What didn’t work for me:
Not a damn thing. I need everyone to read this series, please and thank you.
