This is so close to 5 stars but there was a twist that hurt me sm and scared me that it knocked it down. But this book is amazing the world is amazing the characters are so interesting and I just fell in love with everything about it. Plus it has a map and a glossary I love that. I'm very excited for the next book and all the other books that are to be set in the world because turns out there's going to be alot.

“Never trust. Never yield. Always guard your heart.”

This book was absolutely amazing! There were so many twists and turns that I wasn’t expecting. I thought I had everything figured out a few times, just to realize I was only partially right about everything! 

This was the first spicy book I have read and the spice was pretty good. I’m still not completely comfortable with spicy reads yet, but it was done so well in this book. This was the perfect book to break into spice for me. 

The romance was everything! I absolutely loved watching the characters progress from enemies to lovers, and the slow burn was just perfect!

I heard about this on BookTok and it absolutely lives up to the hype. It doesn’t end on an unsatisfying cliffhanger and the writing is So. Damn. Good. 

I don’t give out 5 star reviews unless there is nothing about this book I would change if given the chance. This book absolutely deserves it.
