Updated Review. Audiobook reread. (Oct. 2024)
Omg! I forgot how much I love this story. Also, I'm adding a star. I've thought about this series so much since I read the first 3 books, and I'm excited to dive into the final book once I finish rereading the first 3.
This is a high fantasy slow burn romance in a medieval-type setting with a lot of politics, elemental magic, a kind of fake dating and marriage of convenience hybrid, and incredible banter. It's been just over a year since I read this book for the first time, and I loved it even more this time around.
Romeria, our FMC, wakes up as a princess who has committed murder and treason in a foreign world. As she tries to grapple with this, she also tries to prevent herself from being executed for her crimes. Enter Zander, our MMC, the new king of Islor where Romeria has landed... and the betrothed of the previous "evil Romeria." Zander is 🔥.
The banter is amazing. The secrets. The betrayals. While some parts of the plot are a little bit predictable, there are so many twists and turns that you never see coming. I think K.A. Tucker has done a fantastic creating this world and its magic systems. There are also some absolutely fantastic side characters, and while the story can be complex, it's never too much to try to follow. There's just a bit of spice that wraps it up nicely (but it's pretty low-spice romantasy, IMO).
I'm so looking forward to continuing on this reread. The narrator also did a fantastic job on the audio version.
