“Love is the frequency of magic.”
This was such a fun read! It had all the elements of a fantasy romance that I love and it felt oddly nostalgic the entire time I was reading. It gave me so many Harry Potter feels as I was getting to know the academy and the classes and as the story progressed, it really set itself apart and had so many unique aspects!
The magic system is really interesting and something I’ve never seen before. There is so much to build on and I can’t wait to see how this develops as the series continues. The plot was high-stakes and kept me engaged the entire time without a ton of fluff and unnecessary scenes. This is perfect if you are looking for a quick and overall fun/easy read in the romantasy space.
The FMC Kiara was someone I could really get behind, I liked that she wasn’t perfect and had some rough edges, it made her super relatable. The MMC Lucian is everything you can expect from a shadow-wielding mage, arrogant, charismatic, but also so very sweet and protective. The side characters are lovable and I can’t wait to see more of them in the books to come.
I think this was a great start to the series and will definitely be continuing this series!
