This book made me feel a lot of emotions. It was definitely a can't-put-this-book-down kind of book. I will definitely be reading the next one!

I am a sucker for fae romances and this is no exception from my love.

I was intrigued by not only the characters but the world that has been created. The history alone that we learn in book one makes me want to pick up a history book of the world. I also liked how the courts are different in their cultures rather than types of magic they use as is common in fae books. It made the world feel more alive.

I adore Remy and Hale's relationship and interactions. They were just so fun. I thought all the side characters were good and had intriguing plot lines that I hope we explore with the other books in the series. I cannot wait to continue with the series and explore more of the world.

This is a safe fantasy-romance to read. It’s kind of like if Throne of Glass and FBAA had a love child. The cast is diverse and filled with lovable characters. I would have liked to see more banter between Remy and Hale though.
