A review by antagonist
Cast in Firelight by Dana Swift
3.0
Two heirs are aranged to be married, even though they've been rivals since they were children. When they both take on secret identies to figure out what criminal activity is taking place in Belwar. They meet again, falling for each others disquises, which makes their new partnership very complicated.
This was a easy to read fantasy romance inspired by South Asian culture. As a South Asian I appreciated the brown characters but don't really see much representation when it comes to culture and traditions. Regardless as young adult book with simple world building and magic, it's still quite enjoyable.
The plot was interesting, but I found myself wondering how many pages were left. I enjoyed the characters and their relationship, despite the instalove. Honestly the story is fairly forgettable but I do think a younger person would enjoy this a lot more. I won't be reading the next book.
