I liked this book. It's about a powerful mage, Candence, who is forced to torture her kingdom by the queen until she meets her childhood friend and they try to find a way for Candence to defeat the queen. I thought the book was basic and wish there was more to the story. There was little information about the world and I wish the author did well with the world-building. I did enjoy the story but wish there was more to it. The pacing went well in the beginning but got rushed at the end.

I enjoyed the characters in this book both Candence and Kemi. I love how the author wrote the book in both of their povs and I felt connected to these characters. Though I felt that the antagonist was a little weak but I did enjoy the queen. I thought the romance in this book was cute but I wanted more of it.

This was an enjoyable read but I was expecting more. I think this is a perfect short read if someone feels like reading something that doesn't have a complex world. This is perfect for those who love LGBTQ+ with fantasy.
