I would say 3.5 stars rounded down to 3.

The third book in the series was not as good as the second. Kingdom of the Cursed made me want to grab the next book right away after I sped through it. This one, not so much. Yes, we discovered all the obstacles in front of Emilia and Wrath. We found out who the true villains were. However, the overpowered Emilia and Wrath plowed through them as if they were nothing. It made everything too easy. As a result, we were at the 75% mark with the main storyline resolved. So what do we do for the rest of the book? Not to worry because Emilia would break immersion by listing all the side storylines that still needed resolution. This could be handled more seamlessly.

Also, the Vesta storyline was unnecessary. Was it added in just to bolster the page count?

The 0.5 boost was for the smut (which was good).

Spice scale (as defined by Mysterious Galaxy):

DNFed at 68%

Nobody is more shocked than I am. I preordered two separate covers of this book. I stalked my local Walmart daily for multiple days prior to release to see if they happened to put it out early. I took the entire day off work on release day because I could not wait to finish this series.

Unfortunately, this was a big miss for me. I don’t think I’ve ever thought “I wish there wasn’t any spice in this”.

I bumped this series down a row on my bookshelf before I was even halfway through the book.

It took me over a month to read 68% of a book I took the day off to read, only to decide that I actually had no desire to finish at all.

This book pushed Daddy Wrath out of a top tier book boyfriend for me.

4.75 stars It was so amazing and I adore the characters but it was missing that 5 star feeling I love to get in books. I’d recommend this book for people who like romance and are trying to get more into fantasy. this world is definitely not hard to figure out and form in your mind!
