adventurous emotional hopeful fast-paced

1: These descriptions really don’t do these books any sort of justice. They’re so much deeper than what’s in that short blurb.
2: Whew that guy really is broken. I’m not thrilled with the waffling back and forth, but I’m definitely going to admit that you don’t just poof get over it suddenly so it needs to be there.
3: I love Kailani. Her spark is amazing, her soft heart is ever better.

Enjoyed this one over the first book in the series. The strong FMC was really well done. I enjoyed her ability to have strong emotional powers and have the ability of the blessed granting her the ability to give (and take) life. The romance was cute and felt a little too much some times but that’s to be expected in a romantasy.

I remember finishing the first book in the series and loving it that much that I had to have the three other books right away. I also remember receiving them, putting them on the shelves and having them stay there for quite some time. However, this weekend I wanted something quick and easy. I wanted to know for sure that I could finish it today. The choice was easy. This book was the perfect fit and I started reading right away.

What I absolutely love about these books is the sort of predictability. I know that some people like to be surprised while reading, but in some cases I like to get exactly what I'm expecting. This is such a case. This book is all about a fake wedding and of course we know from the start how this is gonna end. Both characters will catch feelings for each other and eventually their fake wedding will become a very real wedding.

I did like that it really took a long time before both characters were ready to admit their feelings though. Especially the king has build a tough wall around his heart, which is easy to understand once you read his backstory, and our heroine has to go very far to make him see that being with her is far better than being without her. However, I do like that it appears all her attempts aren't working until it's clear his wall has crumbled completely.

I also like that our heroine, since the hero is taking so much time to admit that he's in love with her and that this marriage is very real, has to discover who she wants to be without him. There is an amazing moment towards the end of the book where the heroine is escaping the hero's shadow. I have to admit that it's a little unbelievable that she can be this good after reading a book about the topic, but those are details I'm willing to forgive. I loved the moment too much.

I can't wait to dive into the next book!
