nina and matthias walked so rune and gideon could run
–
I was enthralled from page one and god, Rune and Gideon have my heart 🥹 these two, you guys!! This is fake dating/betrothal and enemies to lovers at its absolute finest

While the worldbuilding feels a bit weak at times, I loved the morally grey aspect of all it. Both sides are kinda...shit and while the eradication of witches is obviously wrong, we learn so much about the Witch Queens that it's kinda hard to root for them, too!

The ending was a bit too rushed for me (and I think Alex was boring lol) but I'm still so so ready for the next book hihi

This book gripped me at the first few chapters. I was on the edge of my seat stressing through the Crimson Moth moments. I loved the duel POV (I love when authors include this aspect). Gideon and Rune are two broken hearts & soul who are inevitable. Can’t wait for the second book!!
