4.5

An emotional queer romance that will put you through the ringer as you follow the main character (Vel) and his love interest (Cae) as they navigate their somewhat unplanned marriage and try to figure out who is trying to kill Vel.

This book has everything - great friendships, adorable romance, some fun politics to explore (and main characters who aren't very good at politics), and a murder mystery. It was a great book to read amongst the middling books around it.

Note - This story starts out with an extremely violent scene (check trigger warnings), and for a large part of the book, a character is dealing with the repercussions of that act.
