Frozen Hearts and Death Magic by Day Leitao
4.0
When I read the blurb for this novel I knew it would be a great read. It piqued my interest and I was very much looking forward to reading it.
Frozen Hearts and Death Magic follows multiple characters and brings them all together.
Naia (an ironbringer of Umbraar) who is set to be her twin brother's advisor, when he takes their father's throne. Naia has other plans for a future and it isn't one that is chosen for her.
Whilst struggling with her magic powers and new life she meets River - her new future has already began changing.
Leah (a necromancer Princess of Frostlake) has to find a husband in less than four days. She can have any Prince she wants—except one, Naia’s brother. But he’s the only one she wants. With relationships to navigate and a looming war, things aren't easy for any of our characters.
River - the Fae, that has taken Laia's fancy. There's a lot more to him that meets the eye and I have a feeling it's not all good
The writing was detailed and informative, especially since it was written from each character's pov.
I loved the world building and the characters development. The story played out well, the kidnappings, the fights, the potential betrayals kept me enthralled.
I loved the relationship between Naia and River, I enjoyed that it wasnt drawn out and hit fast and hard. I liked how their eternal devotion had an underlying issue, which I though came in very handy for Naia when River was being vague and how I questioned River's motives more than once but he came through at the end.
Leah and Fel's relationship however I felt was a bit slow and took a back seat to Naia and River. I did enjoy the moment she finally decided her truth.
This Fae Romance is captivating and a really enjoyable read. I look forward to reading book 2.
