EDIT** as I have now been sent the correct file and devoured this book! 

I have ADORED this book. I had no idea what I was getting into upon starting this story as it was the first book I read from this author, and let me tell you that any upcoming fantasy is automatically on my to-read list from there on. 

I have loved the world building as much as I did the characters. The magic system was wonderfully set into place, the stakes immediately clear, and the characters only grew from there on. I jumped into this expecting a high-stakes romantasy, and I love that I got just that. 

Both Selene and Callan had their depth and their flaws, fleshed out onto paper the way I love my romantasies to be written; first as separate characters before setting up any kind of romance trope. I have nothing but love for this story and where it took me. I love a found family trope and there’s nothing I like more than being instantly and pleasantly surprised by a good read!! 

Thank you kindly netgalley for the arc and opportunity to read and review this book!
