This book is truly one of my favorites that I've ever read. This book taught me a lot of things about Māori culture and New Zealand in general that I, an American, had no clue about... so not only was it a pleasure to read but I actually learned some things! The characters are fantastic. Ellie is such a strong and smart FMC, and Van is a kind and supportive MMC. Their love is so electric, and yet also sweet and tender. The secondary characters are really great too, you get a real sense of who they are - they're not just flat or pointless. There are fantasy and monster elements, but even if those aren't your usual subgenres, I would recommend this one to anyone who loves reading spicy romance books.
