A sister on the brink of death, a healer to rescue, a war on the brink, and a relationship that might not make it out of the war alive... smithy Ziva has her work cut out for her. Picking up where the first book left off, Ziva’s sister Temra was mortally wounded and Ziva, Petrik, and Kellyn have to get her to a healer or else she’ll die... unfortunately for them said healer has been kidnapped and with the clock ticking they’ll have to find a way to steal her back in time to heal Temra. Ziva is still reeling from the emotional damage she took and not only blames herself but Kellyn for saving her instead of saving her sister... so when they do end up rescuing the healer... only one person has made themselves the distraction and didn’t plan on making it back so that Ziva could save her sister... but there is no way that Ziva will ever let Kellyn die for her, so she breaks off the portal and now finds herself taken hostage by the ruler who threatens to kill Kellyn if she doesn’t make weapons for him to overthrow her home. With enemies at every turn, Ziva will have to find a way to not only escape with Kellyn but to save her home and the people before its too late. On top of that she has to deal with acknowledging her feelings for Kellyn and asking herself if she can forgive him for saving her. This was a great way to end the duology, it wraps up all the storylines and the character arcs ended beautifully. ( Not gonna lie I would absolutely be down for a bonus book with Kellyn and Ziva’s life and relationship afterwards). The struggles and fears that Ziva have are relatable and just how supportive, caring, and sweet Kellyn is, is just amazing. I had a blast reading this series and can’t recommend it enough for anyone who likes fantasy romances!

*Thanks Netgalley and Macmillan Children's Publishing Group, Feiwel & Friends for sending me an arc in exchange for an honest review*
