Writing this KILLER slow burn fantasy deserves an honorable award!! Sara Hashem, u are a star!!! 🌟

“I choose her” absolutely diabolical. 

This is def a fantasy book that needs to be on EVERYONES radar!! 

The tension, yearning, and enemies to lovers was so loud in the room that I was clawing up my walls. This is art 🙂‍↕️

I need book 2 in my hands ASAP!!!

I wish someone would have told me there were trials in this book. I am so beyond sick of reading about those. But the story was interesting otherwise. I liked the slow burn romance between Essiya and Arin.

A couple things were a little confusing. Like how she could get stabbed in the heart and use her magic to heal and yet no one questioned how she was up n ready for the next trial 2 days later. Like…. Wouldn’t that be obvious? lol.
