The plot and the characters were all wonderful and I did not see the plot twist comin as with every other book in this series. I thought Alpha was a really mysterious and cool protagonist and Zephyr was hella fun to read from the pov of. However, I found the pacing and plot development to be pretty inconsistent and kind of unrealistic. The fact that she conveniently meets alpha in the arena and he agrees to marry her 2 weeks later seemed kind of off to me. Also the development of their equation over time felt kind of rushed to me. The pace at which the characters completely changed their opinions and frame of mind over a certain topic was pretty stupid and at times your just like "wait weren't you like 100% against this 2 minutes ago?". But its an entertaining read and doesn't fail to keep you on your toes. As always Tristan and Morana and Dante and Amara were a delight to read about again.
