This series has taken me by storm. I read the first book in this series right before the release of this book and I have been catapulted into such a delightful series.
I mesh so well with Thea Guanzon's writing style. I immediately fell into a rhythm with it and it spoke to me instantly. It is easy to read but feels complex at the same time. I was impressed with the involved plot, which unfolded beautifully. The story kept my attention from start to finish. The world-building is atmospheric and beautifully detailed. I would have loved a little more explanation regarding the magic in this world but otherwise, I have no complaints.
I am wholly in love with these characters. They are vibrant and stand out distinctly. I love their personalities and seeing their character growth is riveting. The side characters are also very intriguing and add so much depth to the story.
I am so on board with this romance! What I love best about Alaric and Talasyn is their banter. There is an ignitable energy between them that bounces off the other and keeps burning hotter each time. I can't get enough of them every time they are together. I am so pleased with the progression of the romance in this enemies-to-lovers story. The author relays everything in such a believable and compelling way. Talasyn and Alaric have an undeniable connection and the attraction between them is irrefutable. The spicy scenes between them were the perfect balance of hot and heartfelt. These two may be denying all feelings toward each other but the tender moments they share give them away every time.
Overall, this is an exciting and unique series that is diverse and so addicting! Romantasy fans will love this one with its to-die-for enemies-to-lovers romance between a shadow daddy and a heroine that shows no quarter. War, politics, secrets, and magic abound in this series. Sometimes the hype is warranted and this book will certainly win your praise. I am so excited for the next book after the cliffhanger we had to endure in this one.
