Betrothed to the Emperor

I'm a sucker for this kind of plot and this was done so well. Airón was an enjoyable MC (I can be picky with MC's). And I thoroughly enjoyed his character. I normally stay away from first person, but that didn't even bother me because the book was enjoyable and the story was good. Despite being short, the story was well paced and there was good exploration of the world. Tallu (the LI) had the right amount of mystery and you generally get to like him despite not knowing what he's thinking or his motives. I've already preordered the second instalment!
