        Mrs.Pearson's Dance Of Thieves.              has wonderful world building,     romance,action,and an amazing cast of characters each with their own motives,and personalities . Mrs.Pearson's beautiful storytelling,and brilliant attention to detail is truly spectacular. 

          Kazi and Jase's opposites attract swoon worthy romance story is written to perfection,and I appreciated the witty banter moments especially whenever Kazi is never afraid to speak her mind. Jase is definitely book boyfriend material,and Kazi is perfect for him. 
            
         Synove,Wren,and Kazi's friendship throughout the whole story is amazing to see,and they are truly thick as thieves.
          
          I will definitely be buying the sequel Vow Of Thieves to read even more of Jase and Kazi's story,and to learn more about the other character's.  
         

      I highly recommend buying the beautiful B&N exclusive edition of Dance Of Thieves it looks amazing on book shelves,and it has shiny gold sprayed edges with a stunning white cover.

The first 100 or so pages are a little slower, but after that it’s very gripping. Ends on a cliffhanger. I recommend you wait to read Chapter 62 (the last chapter, about 1 1/2 pages) until you have book 2 on hand.

I haven’t read any fantasy in a hot minute but I think this was a good one to read to get me back into it! I like how after the first 20 pages or so I was able to fully comprehend the fantasy world without much effort. I also love a dual POV and an enemies to lovers trope (also lowkey has the forbidden lovers thing)! 

It was definitely a slow burn romance wise. I think the book had a pretty good pace, maybe a little slow at some parts but not too bad. 

Honestly the thing that annoyed me the most was how the FMM being constantly described as an untouchable warrior but like we see she makes mistakes that seem a little obvious… maybe she blinded by love though so who am I to judge. 

Overall I liked Jase’s character a lot and hearing the history of his family was VERY interesting I almost wish there was a book on that! Kazi was also likable and gave me Inej vibes form Six of Crows (except Inej is actually untouchable lmao). I’ll be interested to see what happens with them in the second book.
