I didn't like this book as much as I hoped I would, but I still was invested in the story. I really liked the ancient roman setting with the dragon twist. But I was a bit turned off over the dynamic between the main characters (master/slave). I would also advise to check the trigger warnings before reading it because there are some dark themes and topics.

It was a fast paced book; with magic, witches and dragons, which I liked. But I was hoping for more world building, action and political intrigue.
I also didn't like that the relationship between the main characters felt like instant love. Give me some longing, please!

Overall, I had fun and I am curious about the next book.
