I liked their banter at the start and I liked the dragons element of it but otherwise it was pretty cliche, the betrayal was sooo obvious

her uncle? Shocking 🙄

and like the final act to ruin the relationship

him marrying her as the clause to overthrow the current monarchs so fin can stay alive

wasn't that bad??? Like she's being such a baby about it. I also like the toxic protectiveness stuff was so yuck after the first 25% of the book
