FUCK THIS BOOK! It is the ONLY story in those series that I have detested enough to DNF it (at 17%). IT IS BAD!👎🏻 I started this back in December of 2023 and STILL haven't finished it! Not worth it.

Listen, idk what Victoria is slipping into her writing to make me delusional like this, but I need MORE. Best book in the series hands down (so far at least)! 

“My life has been…wrought. Each day is filled with dread and suspicion and fixation.” He glanced at the floor, his brows knitting. “She brings me silence.”

Sikthand swallowed down the tightness in his throat. “The clouds are not so heavy when she’s near.”


Sikthand is easily my top book husband. After rereading the series I just can’t help but melt at the way Sikthand refers to Sophia. The way this book gives me the toe curls is insane. I’m pretty sure I’d get the butterflies everytime I read this book, it wouldn’t get old.
If Victoria writes it- I’m gonna read it.
