Gorgeous. Devastating. Adventure around every turn. Danielle L. Jensen's The Bridge Kingdom deserves every ounce of praise one can muster.
I have wanted to read this series for a long time, and I am so glad that it lived up to the hype -- because I absolutely loved it!
Lara is clever, determined, tough as nails, and a force of nature to be reckoned with.
Aren is loyal, honorable, and a fierce protector of his people with an adventurer's heart.
These two, bound together by a political marriage that is part of a treaty between their parent's warring nations, literally wrecked my heart. Reading this book was like running a feelings marathon. Sensory overload in the best of ways.

This book ticked off so many tropes and was entirely predictable ~ h o w e v e r ~ that was all I needed it to be and so this was a very enjoyable and comfortable read.
I loved the dynamic between the two main characters, as cliche as it was, and was surprised by the world building and political intrigue?? A copy-paste enemies-to-lovers/marriage-of-convenience making me care about politics and the alliances between the countries in this kingdom?! It’s almost unheard of lol. Something about the setting and vibe of this book really did it for me too. The smut was pretty nice too and felt earned. I will be reading book two immediately
