"A man he's not
We work we rot
No sleep until it's through
A sailor's grave
Is all we crave 
We are the Ever King's crew."

I will never recover. This book will undeniably be my favourite book of the year. Reading it by the ocean added to the magic this story has to offer. I couldn't put it down, and then I had to put it down because it was coming to an end. The two main protagonists, Livia and Erik, are written perfectly. They have the tension of enemies to lovers without the miscommunication and betrayal trope. I loved the plot between sea and earth fae along with all the different magic they possess. I am beyond impressed with this story, to say the least. What I am most disappointed in is that I DIDN'T BRING BOOK TWO TO READ BY THE OCEAN HOW FOOLISH OF ME!!
