It took me forever to get hooked but once I was there was no stopping! 

This was a slow burn that took a little while to hook me, but then it had me. I really enjoyed the world building in this book, and that along with lots of memories shared by the characters made me truly start to care for them, even though I still feel like I don’t know enough. In some areas it felt like it was paced way too fast, but others too slow. Overall though, I love Liam and Dianna so much and am yearning to find out the many secrets that I know we as readers don’t know yet. It has me on my edge of my seat for the next book!

Had me kicking my feet, giggling, and gasping—slow burn perfection with characters I’ll never forget.



From the very first chapters, it had me hooked. The writing is so smooth and immersive that the story played out like a movie in my head. I loved the unique mix of fantasy and modern elements, it felt fresh and intriguing without being confusing.

Gabby stole my heart, Liam was *chef’s kiss*, and Dianna? Absolute badass. The slow burn between the leads was delicious, by page 352 I was kicking my feet and giggling, and by page 488… well, let’s just say “my Dianna” lives rent-free in my head. The tension, the worldbuilding, the characters, everything hit perfectly.

If I had to nitpick, some chapters felt a bit long, and I’m still piecing together the details of the god war. But honestly, this was the best thing I’ve read since TOG (and that’s saying something). I’m already buying the next two books!
