This was a pretty decent read and I'm happy that I was able to be an ARC reader. Thank you to The Nerd Fam for gifting me this ARC.

I will be honest, it took me a bit to get into the story. I wasn't quite invested until the threat of an forced marriage came into play. Suddenly, I was hooked and couldn't put the book down, because what do you MEAN?

I thought the author did a good job at building up the story from that point. Every moment mattered and I had so many questions that I couldn't wait to get the answer to!.

Our FMC, Eva is a unlike a character I have read before. She makes mistakes but holds herself accountable when those mistakes cause consequences. She isn't just relying on her "chosen one" role and actively tries to better herself. She is so headstrong and the way she fell into her found family really tugged on my heartstrings.

Our MMC, Cal... What could I honestly say about him? He is the classic brooding main character but if you give him a chance, you will see the subtle things he does that show his true feelings and character. He cares for Eva and truly wants to protect her, even when she is the one rushing headfirst into battle and not needing it. The way they fight together is so ... just chef's kiss.

That ending though?! I mean what am I meant to do... wait for the next book? Please. .. No seriously, please don't make me wait.
