I loved everything about this book. I’m starting to love any MMC that uses sign language, or in this case, hand speak. The FMC, Lyra, is one of my favorites. Shes strong and cares for her people. I also feel like she is open minded and listens to those around her, even apologizes when she is wrong. Now Roark, yummy! However, his backstory was one of my favorite parts of this book. You don’t figure it out until the end, a cliffhanger of course too involving him. The plot was also very good. I love the idea behind the magic or craft in the world, it’s very different from what we see in other fantasies. Very good spicy scenes too, we obviously don’t get a ton being book one, but they are satisfying! Overall, a great read and I highly recommend it! I need book 2 immediately!!

I really enjoy this author's writing. There is a good balance in world and the magic system building but it isn't too cumbersome or complicated. I'm disappointed to have to wait for the next book, the plot is very intriquing and there were twists I saw coming and others that I didn't see!
