The smut didn’t start until 84% of the way through which, considering I was under the impression this was more smut than romance (my bad), was disappointing. I could see why it was set up that way but it was a bit disappointing. The ending had me enraptured though and I’m excited to see what happens in book 2.

I was not expecting to like this as much as I did.  Over the last year I have really started to read unapologetically.  For the first 30-35% or so, I had the roughest time connecting to this book, I had to keep going back to the cover to envision Ketahn’s physicality and the worldbuilding was confusing for a bit.  The writing was really well done, the descriptions were great.  There is a bit of the standard hands exploring with dubious consent and some forcible mating.  Not SA, but moreso “You are my mate now” type situation.  Ivy’s journey through this book was an interesting interpretation of how someone would handle waking up on a new planet with a person-thing you can’t understand.  Her acceptance of her attraction to Ketahn and her new life was delightful.  

I didn’t love the cliffhanger ending, and I will read the next book and hold off judgment until I can see how it wraps up; trilogies aren’t usually my favorite things.

the relationship between Ketahn and Ivy does have a bit of dubious consent due to a language barrier and the difference of body types. It does end quickly and is eventually cleared up once they start learning each other's languages.
