I must admit that I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. I requested for an ARC since I was fascinated by the book's description and cover. I had a great time reading this. Gwendolyn and Mordred each have a point of view in the book. Gwen, an Earthling, is sent to Avalon after being bound to Merlin, a grumpy cat. Mordred is also revered by his people as the Prince of Iron in Avalon. Mordred and Gwen dance around their enticement to one another and their shared destiny to mould Avalon.
I have to admit that the way Kingsley crafted the prologue from Mordred's perspective made me eager to begin reading the following chapters. It was very pumped up for me by the world-building and foreshadowing. Additionally, when Gwen's character was initially introduced in the first chapter, I was also immediately drawn to her. While reading the chapter, I felt a connection to her right away. For me, the way that Kingsley wrote the plot of her book and slowly started off to foreshadow certain things made me even more curious to stay up late at night and keep on reading. Honestly, there were times when I could not stop reading, as the chapters left me wanting to know more.
I was drawn into the developing enemies-to-lovers relationship between Mordred and Gwen as I started reading. I was captivated by the way they teased one another as they started to slowly get to know each other. The book's conclusion leaves you curious as to how the plot will develop in book 2, as it is certain to take some unexpected turns. I am looking forward to reading book 2 to see how the story continues between Gwen and Mordred. I give this book 4 out of 5.
Thank you, NetGalley, and Second Sky Books, for providing me with an e-ARC of the book for review consideration. All opinions are my own!
