"A forest in your bones, a graveyard beneath your feet. There are no heroes here."
This was my second time reading this book and it still remains to be one of my favorites. Following along with Red and Eammon as they find space in the constraints of responsibilities thrust upon them to still fight for what they believe in still continues to be a joy to experience. Whitten has beautifully crafted these characters who have lost so much but continue to stand for what they hold dear despite what is thrown at them. A lot of my favorite tropes are present in here such as forced proximity, enemies to lovers, even a sprinkling of forbidden love in a way (I'll stop naming tropes for fear of spoiling anything but trust there are more). This story has wonderful bones and tips it's hat to a well known tale but manages to keep it's own identity with a new face and a darker tone. I will never stop screaming about this book.
