Great series. Even though this is book 0.5, I think reading book 1 gives a lot of context and would recommend 1 first. TW for forced marriage.

Love it just as much or more than the first time 😍

I love these characters and want their complete story. I love them more than the characters in the main story! Please Laurie, write the full prequel story of Tessla and Vale, no matter how heartbreaking it is! ❤️❤️
