*thank you netgalley and the publisher for an arc in exchange for an honest review*

book twos in trilogies scare me because they usually always feel like filler

i’m so glad this one was not that

from the budding new relationships to the trails of breadcrumbs leading into an explosive final chapter, this book was packed and i loved every second of it

alder discovering his place in world after being a nomad for so long was heartwarming and i just want to hug him and tell him everything will be alright. plus i love him and golan. they better stay together in the final book

the tension presented between lettel and rayan, as well as yeeran and furi felt natural and not like it was forced for the sake of tension. i wanted to physically crawl into the book and shake them all.

i am absolutely loving this series and i can not wait for the conclusion!
