To anyone who said this book is similar to Powerless, I completely agree. Still ate it up though.
3.5*
Good story and concept but it felt really fast. You don’t really develop super strong ties to any of the characters. I think if it were 100 pages longer and allowed more development, it could be a 5 star!

This is not your typical romantasy- reading the negative reviews surprised me, It probably would be easier to say this book borders on darker romance as the MMC is cruel, toxic, morally grey and the FMC is uncomfortable with his attention for some of the book.
Personally I loved it and that ending was ruthless!

I want everyone who recommended this book to be arrested.
I want everyone who looks at Dacre and sees a book husband to put down their ereaders, step outside, and touch some grass.
I’m all for the occasional dark romance, and I’ll be honest and say the spice in this book was seriously spicing (hence the shameful half a star added to the rating). But don’t lie to me or anyone else and say Dacre is serious book boyfriend material unless you’ve got a serious degradation kink, which I’m beginning to think the FMC does. He’s possessive, entitled, downright mean, and the FMC lets him just walk over her.
Not to mention the writing. I’m sorry this might be the worst book I’ve read this year so far. What plot? What world building? What romance????? This was lust, lust, and more lust. And if it hadn’t taken itself so damn seriously, I wouldn’t be either! But if this wants to be a real book series and not just mindless smut, then give me some actual substance of any kind please.

I breezed through this and really enjoyed it purely on the vibes.
This not have particularly good world building- I still cannot tell you a single thing about how the magic works in this world. But I didn’t need to to have a good time. Definitely the main focus was the romance rather than the fantasy or politics. Plus good spice and a cliffhanger… I’m eagerly awaiting book 2 in august!

Was zum fick hab ich hier gerade gelesen? In wahrsten Sinne des Wortes, denn obwohl das Buch nur 300 Seiten hatte, war die Hälfte davon smut. Und der war nicht mal gut! Die Dialoge waren unfassbar unangenehm, und die Story hatte gefühlt keinen Plot.
This was a fun read!!!! Very fast paced and easy to follow. Saw that ending coming from a mile away but I did nottttt think that was how it would go down!!!
