This was honestly the worst JLA book I’ve read. I was ten hours in and nothing had actually happened, the plot was boring at best and the sex scenes were dry and not engaging. The writing was repetitive and the characters had base level personalities, I probably won’t continue with the series, which is a shame because I loved her first three books in the FBAA series.
The only redeeming factor in my opinion was for the bi representation.

I fell in love with this book so quickly. It has everything I love in a fantasy. I can't wait to read the rest of the series when it comes out!

It's essentially smut with a sprinkling of plot. A not very compelling plot at that.

Whew okay what to say. I love Jennifer L Armont so the fact I didn't like this book was disap ointing. If you've read any of her recent adult fantasy books then the writing in this story may seem incredibly familiar. No I mean it. Like the same. The way the characters are described is almost identical to some of her other series. It almost read as a weird mash up fanfic of the blood and ash series and harbinger.
Speaking of unclear if she meant to do this but there's hints of the omega verse being incorporated in and I'm.....ya.... Soooo. If your a smut girly thought this book is for you. Almost every chapter talked about or had sex in it. That was also it's downfall though because nothing happened until 90% through the story. That's not an exaggeration I was noting it on my kindle. I was screaming at the main girl almost the entire time to use her powers instead of just passively accepting everything. It drove me bonkers.
Will I read the second? Yes, because Im a gluten for punishment and there's nothing more I hate them and uncompleted cliff hanger. (God dammit Jennifer).
Positive thoughts its incredibly queer which I appreciated.

A whole star is for the smut scenes and half a star is for that ending. Otherwise, this would be a 2 star book. Strange word choices in sentences threw me waaaay off. Reminded me way too much FBAA but less good even though it’s by the same author 🤷🏼♀️ and even though Thorne is the MMC, we don’t get a whole lot from his other than sexy prince dude. Very one dimensional. Maybe we’ll get to know him in book 2 (the only reason I want to read book 2 is the ending)
