Oh! What a ride this book was. Tumultuous and stormy and yet so heartwarming and joyful at the same time. And of course I wouldn’t expect any less from a book by Carissa Broadbent. 

This duology for the House of Shadow raised the bar even higher than where Rhain and Oraya had left it. Mische and Asar, you’re now my favorite fantasy couple! 

I loved this interpretation of a grumpy x sunshine MC pair. You really get to see what life journeys led the two to their current dispositions and how at their heart they really are two twin souls that look different only on the surface. 

Beautiful prose as always. 

“Yes, I was speechless. Because what words existed to describe that? I said, at last, “He makes me want a happy ending.”

“{She has always done that,} the eye said. {Analyzed what she is too small to understand.}”

If you like romantasy and you haven’t picked up a Crowns of Nyaxia book yet, what are you waiting for? Go get a copy NOW!!
