I’m in love with a man who’ll never be mine – who’s unavailable in every way, shape and form – and I’m certain it’s going to ruin me.
Orlaith has lived her entire life sheltered from the horrors of the world after she barely escaped them as a child. She lives every day the same, training and visiting her friends, while also hoping for a glimpse of that man who saved her all those years ago, Rhordyn. He stays away from her as much as he can - until he can't.
This book was full of political moves and hidden heritage. Its a slow burn spice that leaves you wanting so much more. Orlaith has been kept from things her entire life and now she's making the decisions for herself, right or wrong. Rhordyn is gruff and sexy and you always want more from him. This book was a great first start to the series and I really enjoyed it.

The narration on this book was a 5 star.
The overall plot for me was too much of extras and I couldn’t keep up with the storyline. I wasn’t engaged enough to keep going.

I have so many things to say about this book and none of it is coherent. This tickled my brain in such a dark fantastical way. In one moment, I thought I knew what was happening, and then the next, i had no idea.
The writing is SUPERB - the use of certain words to distract and misdirect the reader is just

Not at all what I was expecting and I’m not sure what direction the series will go in. The book definitely has a large focus on the romance component.
A few content warnings which StoryGraph does not have in its list:Book 1 heavily uses the ‘in heat’ mechanic, which means that the women experience a violent sexual awakening which leads to some dubious consent situations.
