Bull Moon Rising by Ruby Dixon

5.0

 Spice Level: 4/5, you're going to want a cold glass of milk for this one.

Literally the cover sold me on reading this book. Nothing that has that much epicness is going to be a disappointment. This book was a ride, literally and figuratively. I'll see myself out.

But seriously. I love a good convenience to lovers story, and one has so much more than the romance in it. All of the characters are unique and life like. I even wanted to feel for the not so nice ones as many of them were struggling with their own short comings. But the friendships, and personal growth are all perfection. We see Aspeth grow from a slightly pampered daughter to a dominate voice.

She makes many mistakes, they are all the mistakes you'd find anyone without the knowledge of the real world, and people to count on would make. Watching her discover her own worth, and what she wants out of her life is lovely. Though a lot of the pages are mostly her discovering her freedom in the bed, and well, that's lovely too. ha

I didn't see how they were getting out of any of the binds they were in, but I should have because of course there are many things you can trust about men, don't mess with their money or their woman. That's not really a spoiler because this book is full of strong willed men throwing their weight around. Watching Aspeth try her best to put them all in their place is hilarious at many points. May we all have the gumption she does.

This is very much an introduce you to the world read. We meet so many people, and discover the magic system and how the politics work so buckle up because you're going to want to dive into the next book asap.

You'll love this book if you enjoy unique magical worlds, post magic societies, a bit of grave robbing and so much romance it's going to make you want to fall in love all over again.

Thank you to Net Galley for a copy of this read.
