So this one had me hooked! It gave me fourth wing vibes, but yet different at the same time. I already have book 2 saved for when it comes out. The slow burn was burning, and I will always be a sucker for a good enemies to lovers. Captivating, and addictive!
This Fantasy Romance will capture you from chapter 1. This is book 1 of the new series The Ember War. The romance in this book is a slow burn, enemies to lovers. This book is not spicy. It does have adult language, innuendos, and intimate personal thoughts. The book moves at a quick pace following Ailing as she ventures into the wild to bond with a creature. The pressures of being the future empress remain present at all times. Even when her enemy starts to catch her attention. She has to survive the wilds, and head to a military boot camp for training. All while fighting off developing desires towards her enemy. Aisling is a strong female, who has been prepared for these upcoming tasks for as long time. Kohen has struggled to survive since losing his title, and his country when they fell into the current hands of the emperor. This book is high fantasy, with some current amenities. Even the current amenities have fantasy twists on them. This makes the world easier to imagine, and fun. A book so captivating, it wil leave you wanting more.
