Absolutely loved this! Really beautiful prose and MUCH better written than a lot of romance I’ve read which is huge for me. The world building is a little weak (still not sure what their magic system is or how it works really; it’s all very vague) but the characters are wonderful and the plot is pretty engaging so I didn’t mind. Great ratio of smut to romance to actual plot development. Spice level is maybe 2.5/5 and the relationship that develops is really lovely. Highly recommend and can’t wait to dive into the rest of the series!!
