I liked this book a lot more than I thought I would, considering that most of the kindle unlimited books I’ve read so far have been ~meh~ at best. I especially found it interesting how the characters’ memories were used during the intense scenes with the monster… imma go read the next book in this series now!

Solid fantasy romance - love the story and the characters. Tisaanah is that badass main character and Max is her grumpy trainer turned partner in crime. Very little spice towards the end. Creepy magic concepts. A solid read. Going to continue the series.

Daughter of no worlds- 4.25⭐️3🌶️

Ripped from a forgotten homeland as a child, Tisaanah learned how to survive with nothing but a sharp wit and a touch of magic. But the night she tries to buy her freedom, she barely escapes with her life.

Desperate to save the best friend she left behind, Tisaanah journeys to the Orders, the most powerful organizations of magic Wielders in the world. But to join their ranks, she must complete an apprenticeship with Maxantarius Farlione, a handsome and reclusive fire wielder who despises the Orders.

The Orders’ intentions are cryptic, and Tisaanah must prove herself under the threat of looming war. But even more dangerous are her growing feelings for Maxantarius. The bloody past he wants to forget may be the key to her future… or the downfall of them both.

But Tisaanah will stop at nothing to save those she abandoned. Even if it means gambling in the Orders’ deadly games. Even if it means sacrificing her heart.

Even if it means wielding death itself

✨My Opinion✨

This story took a little brain power to get into, with it opening straight into action and an intricate magic system. This high fantasy series is awesome!

Tis is a well crafted heroine, noble and determined to free those in trouble. Her slavery forced ability to adapt and push through anything made watching her master a magic system very fitting and rewarding.

Max is a beautifully broken character who was betrayed and broken by the very order he is indebted to while being cheered as their war hero. Now he is forced to train

Their chemistry is gradual and very natural, and a new factor the order come up offers a way for T to free her friends back home. The tension is delicious!

I love that this multi POV was established so solidly in Tisanna’s POV before bringing in more. It made the additional POV’s easier to know, because we knew Tisanna so well.

A great balance between small funny moments and crazy war and politics.

[5 Stars] I wish there were enough words to describe how much I enjoyed Daughter of No Worlds by Carissa Broadbent. I usually finish the first book in a series wanting more (which I hope gets expanded upon as the series continues). However, Carissa Broadbent grabbed me by the adrenal glands and never let go until I finished the last page. And while I would ultimately classify this as a romantasy, the first book is heavy with worldbuilding, magic training, and storytelling.

Here's what I loved:

Tisaanah's purpose.
I loved how Carissa Broadbent brought out a character withher own goals, agenda, and drive. Tisaanah is internally motivated to save the people she left behind and will not stop until she achieves her goals--even if it means sacrificing everything.

Short chapters.
The format of Daughter of No Worlds is genius. I loved the short chapters and even the switch from a single POV (Tisaanah) to a dual POV (Tisaanah and Max) beginning in Part 2. The short chapters made the story move faster while also feeling like eating a favorite snack--you can't stop at just one!

Romantic tension.
Hoo, boy. The tension between Tisaanah and Max builds so well (especially around the 50%-52% mark and ALL of Chapters 60-62 when it culminates) that I kept thinking to myself, "THIS is how it's supposed to be."

The ending and Book 2 setup.
Way to leave it that way, Carissa!

Can I just say it?
Sarah J. Maas walked with ACOTAR so all these other authors could run. Carissa Broadbent gave us a vibrant and engrossing book with excellent storytelling, phenomenal characters, slow-burn romance, action, plot twists, suspense, AND a cliffhanger. What else is there to say other than Daughter of No Worlds is a perfect read for anyone looking for a new fantasy/romance series.

Overall, an insanely good opening book to The War of Lost Hearts series, and I can't wait to read the rest of the books!

I LOVED IT. I literally can’t think of a single complaint. I was so unbelievably well written. My heart goes out to all of the characters. I feel as though I got a very good grasp of the struggles of each of the characters even within the single an dual pov structure.
