It was okay.

It was enjoyable and I liked the character dynamics! There were some plot holes that got me confused but I liked it nonetheless.
I saw Erik and Isabella’s dynamic being described as giving Dramione and I honestly didn’t get those vibes (but that’s fine with me because I don’t like Dramione). I DID LIKE THEM THOUGH and the ending made the book even better for me!

Sarah Marie Page delivers a breathtaking fantasy romance with an electrifying enemies-to-lovers twist. The story of Isabel and Erik is a masterclass in slow-burn romance and simmering tension. Page's writing is exquisite, seamlessly blending snarky banter with heart-pounding action. The characters are captivating and well-developed, each with their own intriguing layers. The world-building is rich and immersive, making every page a delight. The plot had me captivated from the start with its engaging banter and unexpected twists that kept me on the edge of my seat. Once the story gained momentum, it raced forward without pause. Isabel's journey through feelings of unworthiness and trauma was depicted with poignant beauty, portraying her transformation from self-doubt to unyielding resolve. The unique magic system introduced in the story holds many secrets yet to be uncovered, hinting at a larger, mysterious world. With the groundwork laid for a promising series, I found myself thoroughly captivated and eagerly anticipate what lies ahead. Overall, this book is an unputdownable read, and I can't wait to read the published version of this stunner of a book.

Scoville Spice Scale: 🫑
This slow burn, bumbling espionage romantasy, has gotten under my skin. I promised myself I'd read this book because it sounded so intriguing. Intriguing it was. Death, Deception, Double Crosses, Near fatal mistakes, and sloppy attempts at seduction make this story sink its teeth into you, wanting to know more.
Why wasn't Isy treated seriously as the Physician's Assistant?
Why did both Erik and Signey have chips on their shoulds.
Why Hans? Stephen? Katrina?
What magic do those special boxes really hold?
Many of the questions remain unanswered. It makes this book even more enthralling. Read this book if you love:
🐎 One Horse
🔪 She threatens him and he leans into it
🔮 Soothsayers and other magic
🕵♀️ She's spying on him…doing a terrible job of it.
👀 I See You
Thank you, Sarah Page, for writing such a banger of a book. It is marvelous.
