3.5⭐️ - pleasantly surprised by this. I like the characters a lot, particularly Boreas. I wouldn’t read the other books in the series in a hurry, but I enjoyed the slow burn.

This is likely a me issue, but I found the author borrowed from a lot of source material and as a result I didn't feel like this was overly original. That being said, I enjoyed watching Wren's growth. Her ability to overcome her addiction and lack of self worth was wonderful to observe. A well written story.

Alexandria Warwick created a unique universe with the North Wind from Greek mythology. It's obvious, at times, where the Beauty and the Beast inspo came from, but the universe held its own.

I enjoyed the characters and learning about their demons and how they overcame them. I found myself being okay with the excessive back and forth banter and flirting.

It's the first in the four book series, but this book wraps itself up fairly well. It intrigued me enough that I am looking forward to reading about the next wind brother.

Overall, I would recommend it for anyone looking for an easy "romantasy" series.
