This romance on the high seas had me giggling and kicking my feet the whole time, May and Elias were SO adorable. That scene where he was taking care of her hair? My life was forever changed.
Across the Star-Kissed Sea is a sequel to Georgana's Secret, and if you haven't read that, you're missing out!! You could read it after this though, because it works as a standalone as well.
It was great seeing some old faces, and meeting new ones too. The storyline was gripping as always, and had me perking my ears up at certain moments that were just so juicy (read: drama-filled), I couldn't stop listening. Speaking of, I think the narrators we got were excellent and my faves out of all the books I listened to so far.
I was gonna say the research is superb, the battle scenes exiting, the writing magical etc, but you already know all of that, it's an Arlem Hawks book, of course everything is perfect.
I'm really obsessed with this world, so Arlem Hawks, I'm going to need you to keep writing sequel after sequel featuring all of your characters, and never stop, okay? Deal.
