[I listened to this as an audiobook]
I really enjoyed this book. In fact, I liked it more than the first book in the series.
The dual narration was great for the MCs. While the side characters did have different tones, I felt (as with book one) that the voices weren't hugely different though. Different enough to notice, but maybe not quite enough for me to always know exactly who was talking before their name was brought up.
The secrets, betrayal, and intrigue were perfect! I did have a couple of 'told you so' moments with the FMC, but I also felt she had some great character growth towards the end, which I loved!
The ending was not what I was expecting! I didn't see it coming, but absolutely loved it.
I cannot wait to listen to book three!
π’ πππ¨: Violence, mild gore, sexual scenes
βI received an ALC of this book from the authors, Dreamscape Media, and NetGalley. All thoughts are my own honest opinions.β

I loved the first book in the series, and this one did not disappoint! I was lucky enough to get an ARC for the audiobook.
I liked the narrators, and since I always have audiobooks on a higher speed I appreciated that they were easy to listen to.
The story developed at a nice pace, and I really like the writing. Will 100% continue this series.

I was given an audio arc and this is my
Honest opinion.
I love the narrators! This is a wonderful audio book. The male nails Soloβs POV chapters exactly how I imagined him.
So this is a real slow burn series.
The build up is so worth it when we finally she the relationship happen.
We see Devenry really come into herself in this book. She goes from a naive princess to a queen who will fight and think for herself. I cannot wait to see her in the next book!
Solomon has totally given into his feelings, and I am here for it. I love that he gives Devenry all the choices. He is such a loyal companion to her. I just love him so much!
The Bartoliβs were such pompous villains. I love how they are written. They are everything you want to hate in villains.
This book was better than the first! I am so ready for the final book to be here in February!

Diving into the sequel, "Crown of Blood and Glass," I found myself engrossed in Devonry's tumultuous odyssey. The storytelling adeptly entwines, portraying the exceptional execution of the bodyguard trope, and the genuine dialogue breathes vitality into characters such as Devonry and Solomon. Despite slight inconsistencies and hurried moments in the concluding chapters, the overall encounter builds anticipation for the forthcoming "Dawn of Fate & Valor."
