"Speak to me truthfully, I wish to make no mistakes with you, some are inevitable but where I can avoid them I plan to."
"Do not allow me to displease you little bird, and I vow not to ruin your tenderness with violence."
"Perhaps I'm truly not meant to be queen, I do not have the ambitions of these petty jealous men."

Okay I ate this up! I listened to the audio and I think you should too, the voice narrators did their thang! The FMC voice narrator sounded very timid and frightened which fit perfectly for the character and the MMC voice narrator sounded strong, confident, and very sweet on the ears lol. This was definitely an enjoyable listen, this is a fast paced spicy vikingish romance that is easy to read. The world building is easy to understand and due to the pace of the story it is easy to keep up and understand what is going on and who the characters are / understanding the hierarchy system. Therefore if you are looking for a quick vikingish romance read, filled with action scenes, betrayal, sacrifice, war, violence, intense spicy scenes, definitely give this a read. Starling is the cutest and sweetest person and I love how The Bone King saw her, and immediately knew she was the one, the way he continuously poured confidence within her was sweet. Their connection was fast, spicy and intense and I ain't mad at it one bit. Truly will reread this soon!
