I was so looking forward to getting to know these two characters! When I first started the Rinaverse I was a little disappointed to find that Knox didn’t have a story with the Royal Elite group. But I’m glad to have found out that his story turned out to be later and to learn that his world is starting to intertwine with other characters from previous reads.

I really loved Knox and Anastasia’s story. Their chemistry was believable because their pasts and how they turned out makes sense to me. However, everything else around them wasn’t as fleshed out as I would have liked. I don’t like to do spoilers so there will be none here but, I will say, the opposing forces for these two felt a little rushed both in the climax and resolution of the story.

Outside of that, I’m glad I read it and am looking forward to pushing through the next few books in the Empire series.
