This is honestly just a romance book more so than your average romantasy. I’ve heard so many good things about it from reviewers who struggle with how toxic romantasy couples can be and I will say the couple in this is incredible. One of the healthiest romantasy couples I have ever read about. However I like a bit more fantasy in my romantasy.
Very good! I wasn't "enthralled" like I was with [b:Master of Crows|6811150|Master of Crows (Master of Crows, #1)|Grace Draven|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1316187731s/6811150.jpg|7018843] but it was a good read. Draven doesn't use the normal formula of enemies becoming lovers, but rather has 2 characters who didn't expect much from life adjusting to, and accepting, their arranged marriage rather quickly.
It's a short read, I love the author, and will read on!

A well depicted healthy relationship between two minor royals of vastly different cultures, with the prospect of conflict, dark magic and loss in the next episode. Personally I could do without the bedroom scenes but I understand that publishers insist upon them for sales...
Ildiko wasn't born a monster fucker but my girl raised to the challenge and I admire her for it
Oh, my God! I don't even know what to say. I started this book thinking it would be a great little read, but it turned out to be so much more. I actually devoured it and I'm not ashamed of it.
I just loved the relationship building, the intensity, and the interaction between the two main characters. What can I say? I'm off to book number 2 :)

I had heard about this romantasy for a while, and I get the hype! This follows a typical fantasy arranged marriage trope, but emphasizes the friendship between the leads despite their different cultures. I liked the kindness and resilience of both leads and loved the team and companionship that developed first before any romance. I will say I didn’t find the plot or world around them as compelling as some others I read. I also thought it was a bit slow at times, but I would still continue on with this series, mostly because I’m curious about another couple! 🫂👥⚖️☁️

This book was totally fine, I personally loved the world that Grace Draven has clearly come up with, but I will say it’s more so a romance within a fantasy setting as opposed to fantasy with a romance within it, I knew that going into the book but just in case others didn’t
There is a second book but reading the general synopsis it doesn’t seem like my vibe currently.
If you’re looking for something generally lighthearted with some action here and there I’d say give it a go!
