Everyone has an agenda and will do just about anything to achieve their goals, including our heroine.
Though many of their goals align, will they be ready for the truth of their actions and how they impact one another?
And I have to say, like many others, I'm not sure about the love interest. I kinda want it to be someone else, so we'll see how it all comes together in the end.

That being said, i loved the proper enemies to lovers romance as well as Keera’s characterization. I also deeply appreciated the exploration of colonialism and the harms it causes. There’s no mistaking the message here, even for my autistic brain.
I’m intrigued enough that i already grabbed 2 on Libby. I hope we get some answers because there’s so much unknown…

I would recommend this book (and series) to anyone who enjoys reading about political intrigue and liberation, and love in the face of overwhelming odds.
