"You have done an unwise thing, Martise of Asher," he said softly. You've caught my interest."
Another fantastic read by Grace Draven.

I loved everything about this book. Silahara with his cold and worry demeanor, watching Martise come out of her shell. I loved getting to know Gurn and even though he was a mute he still played a huge part in the book. And stinky Cael. Such a fun read and adventure. Heading to read the novella now.
Grace Draven is my absolute favorite author in the fantasy romance genre. Her world building is thorough and rich, her MC’s are always the loveliest. Though I’ll say Silhara has been the grumpiest love interest yet. Every time I read one her books it’s just such a treat to be savored, a gift to not be taken for granted. I put off reading this one for a long time since it seemed like some readers didn’t like this compared to her others. I adored it. And Silhara and Martise and Gurn and Cael!

Stories like this are the reason most bookworm Millenials will die alone. We set the bar at sacrifice yourself to keep the one you love safe, and also small bonus if you also save the world. We want high stakes love like Silhara and Martise’s. A great mage battling a corrupted god, faced with the wit of a seemingly mousy woman sent to spy on him in order to save her legit soul. That’s how we start this tale of murder, (get it???), with the loving stench of Cael and Gurn’s domesticated rebellion. The power system is average but for the MC’s it is perfectly explained and put together well. This is a slow burn that then becomes a race to the orgasmic finish line. At times I felt like there was so much story left for the small amount of pages left. But all in all I was satisfied from beginning to end. Her wit, his courage, made for steamy banter back and forth and wonderful scenes of passionate exchange that had nothing to do with spice were beautifully put together. There was emotion and passion and spice and honest to goodness wholesome experiences shared between the MCs. I liked it.

I’m writing this review about a week and a half out from finishing it, and I can hardly remember why I liked this. Which may not be a great recommendation, but at one point I wrote this note about the main male character: “oh I just love him” SO, it made an impression as I was reading it. Love the worlds Grace Draven creates.

Another trashy read, although fantasy this time. Pretty enjoyable. I have become completely unable to read anything of depth these days....
