Under Darkened Skies by H.E. Bauman

5.0

I was first pulling in to this book with murders that are taking place in Astrea kingdom. It also turns out that her family has had her keeping a from those closest to her. I continued to get more immersed into the story when her childhood best friend remerges after 8 years of nothing. Now the two of them must complete a task at the rest quest of the King, who is also Varojin's father, even if the king prefers to pay him no mind. This is a true slow burn romance, while is it also not the main part of the story the plot will keep you hooked with the secrets this group of friends continue to uncover. This book also includes so much character growth and a true cinnamon roll MMC. I now have to get my hands on the Prequel from his POV. This will be a series I continue to read.
