A complete snoozefest DNF’d at 83%. I’m not one to dnf usually, and maybe one day I’ll actually finish this, but I just can’t find it in me to finish this. I really really really tried to finish and I just can’t. This read like a classical novel, which is fine if that’s what you’re in the mood for but I was not. The majority of the time the fmc and mmc just sit around a fountain and talk and nothing really happens behind that. I had a hard time connecting with any of these characters, felt like nothing really happened until the 50% mark. Yes it got a little steamy, but then I was just over it. Needless to say I will not be continuing this series.

This was excellent! I loved everything from the immersive writing and world-building to the depth of the characters. It was empowering to see Cassia's progression of a demure bastard princess to a strategic and cunning rebel of the crown. Lio's ability to not only guide but assist her in this was amazing. I can't wait to read book 2!!

Unique, descriptive, passionate. These are the words I would use to describe this book. A slow burn but once the gates have been opened there’s no going back
