I loved this book so much. After reading Thrum in October and falling in love with the authors way of world building, I knew I had to read more. And this fantasy/romance genre is my usual comfort read so I was hooked from the beginning. I related to the FMC on such a deep level that her inner monologs between 0-50% made me super emotional and oooomg the MMC is Astarion-vibes level perfection. The pacing started to lose me around the 60-80% mark but I enjoyed the ending overall and can't wait to read more by this author! The spice was great the slow burn was great... loved this!
