I was anticipating this book for so long and devoured it like it was oxygen. With how book 2 ended, I was on the edge of my seat from the get go with this book. The varying relationships in this book mixed with the high-stakes plot was enthralling. Kamran’s one goal is to get revenge, but the growing tension and curiosity between Alizeh and Cyrus might get in the way of his goals. I cannot wait to continue this journey in the next book!

God, he’d wanted her. He’d wanted her with an all-consuming thirst, with the desperation of a man waiting to die.
CYRUS OF NARA, THE MAN THAT YOU ARE.
this entire book was him being #1 simp for alizeh and i'm not mad about it. i'm loving the rag tag found family vibe developing. i've been a hazan/kamran shipper since book 1 but other things may be developing 👀 and i like it.
i do think more could have happened plotwise in this book, but for the cyrus content she gave me i don't even care. i'll read 6 books of him pining for alizeh. also this got SURPRISINGLY steamy, ok tahereh!!!!
“Do you think I’ve been lying to you?”
“Yes,” she said, and paused. “Except that I have the strangest feeling you might be lying about how horrible you are.”
She was a fool to think otherwise. He was a fool to think of her at all.
