Started out a bit slow and I found the MMC a little annoying. The book did pick up during the last 30% or so and I enjoyed it a lot more at that point. This is definitely a slow burn, but when the spice hit, it was SPICIN🥵! I just realized this is supposed to be a 6-part series which I do t love as 99% of romantasy stories do best as trilogies AT MOST and usually no more than duologies. I think the ending of this was a good setup for book 2 and I think we should see some good tension between the two MC’s.
