Never the Roses by Jennifer K. Lambert

This was such a fun romantasy with a super unique magic system including dream walking. I’m always down for a rivals/enemies to lovers and their banter/little pranks were so entertaining. 

I loved how they were rivals based on reputation alone. They didn't know one another personally, but their powers and who they worked for put them in that position. 

There were so many unique concepts within this story and it was quite different than anything I feel like I have read before. 

The playfulness and banter between the MCs was fun especially when the FMC knew what was going on and the MMC was in the dark. 

I loved that this wasn't a super long romantasy. So many of them are 500+ pages, but this one stayed under 400! 

The narrators really brought these characters to life.

Thank you to netgalley and macmillan audio for the ALC!
