I loved parts of this book. The character development is 💯 Bryce and Hunt being confirmed mates just made me happy. They really do deserve each other. Getting multiple POVs just enhanced the reading experience for me as you get both Bryce's and Hunts perspective on the rebellion. Seeing how Hunts failed rebellion haunts him and how worried he is for Bryce just pulls at your heartstrings. My one grievance with this book is the fact that the plot relies so heavily on Danika (that could change after HOFAS)

I can't even lie, when I first tried to read this book about a year ago, I had to DNF. Now that I have actually read it, I absolutely hate myself for not reading it sooner. I was so enamored by this book that I have pages and pages of notes. I drew out family trees. I felt like a detective reading this book. 

The amount of emotions I went through with this book is ridiculous, the twists and turns and surprises, I had no idea what was going to happen next. I'm now super nervous for the 3rd book... 

Like my heart is hammering writing this right now because 
Bryce ended up in Prythian!!!!

There’s childhood trauma mentions throughout the book such as child abuse. There’s also mentions of abuse between the hind too just be wary and this is quite a spicy book too x
