I liked that this book was more fantasy-romance than romantasy, the FMC can be annoying sometimes but she's so young and everyone keeps lying to her so idk how much of it is her fault really 

700 year age gap relationship with your long lost dad's bff who's also the king of a shifter kingdom is insane

This is the second book in the Kingdom of crows series and it did not disappoint. The book picks up after the first books and you get to enjoy Fallons stubborn ways from first page. The book progresses and you get to enjoy some spicy scenes and explore the new relationships with Fallons family and her mate.

What I liked in this book:
- the world building continues in this book but rather than Luce it is of the sky kingdom and the author paints a beautiful scene.
- I loved the bath scene. I’m not going to spoil it for you!
- I loved the new crows introduced to this book, Fallons guards and her family they were great additions to the story.

What I didn’t enjoy:
- I did wish Fallons accepted her bond sooner as I love them together!
- I don’t like the betrayal at the end but I am sure it’s need for the series :(
