The beginning of this book was a pretty straightforward plot that I was enjoying, with characters a little archetypal for romantasy but I still liked them, but then the story totally went somewhere I never predicted, and every character went so much deeper, and I loved it! The longer the story went on, the more I became invested and excited and the momentum kept moving faster towards the ending until I turned the page and was shocked that it was the epilogue! I highly, highly recommend for any fans of ACOTAR or other romantasy!!

I really enjoyed this story! I love the main characters, Max and Tis have a great dynamic, and I really love their growing relationship. Max is a refreshing MMC who is grumpy, traumatized, and badass.  Tis has overcome so much and is still soft, while being a badass and trying to protect everyone. She's a classic heroine, but she actually seems to ask for help sometimes AND doesn't run into situations alone if she can manage it. The plot is interesting, there are alot of morally gray characters, as well as a super interesting magic system. It's not as fleshed out as say a high fantasy novel, but the world-building and magic system are relatively easy to understand and very intriguing! I honestly can't wait to dive into the second book. I'm very glad that this is a completed series, because if I had to wait I would be really upset. 

PLEASE check the trigger warnings for this book. There is a wide range of things that are described versus things that are mentioned as background events, but it could be very bad if you go in without warnings.
