This book really is that girl. I devoured it.

To fulfill an ancient magical contract, Princess Odessa is forced to marry prince Zavier, and leave her entire life behind to go to his kingdom. The contract is between the 5 kingdoms as a peace treaty of sorts, so they can focus on defending against the vicious monsters instead of wasting resources by being at war.

I absolutely loved this from start to finish. It has a good mix of romance and plot, and the romance is built up really well. No instalove (thank god).

I honestly feel so bad for Odessa. No one tells this girl anything. Why is everyone around her keeping secrets 😭 

I do think some of the plot was a little predictable, but I'm not really mad at it. I was still surprised by some parts toward the end.

Overall, it was a really enjoyable read for me! I'm looking forward to book 2
