Oh wow. This book ended up being better than I thought it would be. The first few interactions our FMC had with the MMC had me nervous. He came across as this guy who lacked self-awareness and empathy. But as the book continues it’s clear he keeps people at a distance for a reason. He turned into a playful attentive and somewhat dominating MMC, which I loved. 

The book felt like a mix of the selection with the flame kings captive. 

Would recommend, worth the read.

I couldn’t put this down. It was exciting, mysterious, adventure, fun, twists and such a great read. Honestly, I think my only complaint would be that, there wasn’t more! Totally could have been a little longer or given more in the wrap up of the story but it’s still great as is. Highly recommend. Lots of emotions and build up to some also clever smut.

I feel bad, I'm reading these all back to back and I feel like I keep saying the same things. I enjoyed this one. It was an easy 4 stars for me.

Spice was fantastic, I enjoyed all the characters, it had the perfect amount of intrigue and excitement.

These are great books and this one might have been my favorite of the series so far.

It's not the book, its me. I read so many books with this plot that it just isn't for me. I got confused with books I already read so I gave up
