The ending had my jaw on the floor.
Holy shit, that was something unexpected.
This book took me through twists and turns I could not even think of. The romance and the banter was amazing but I loved that I was easily able to get back into the world after it being months since I finished Powerless.

That's a whole lotta words for literally nothing to happen. I could've written the same book in just three words: sand and angst.

Once again this author has left me at a cliff hanger that leaves me sad and pissed off and with a slew of questions of what is going to happen next and what dumb shit Kai or Paedyn is goingbto cause. 

I love the way that this was written. It had me on the edge of my seat waiting for the next thing to happen. And when I tell the enemies to lovers in this books was just *chefs kiss* perfect. 

And I cannot believe that Kitt went and "proposed" to Paedyn when he damn well knows that Kai is in love with her and that she very much feels something for Kai even if he isn't for sure that it's love. That is a fucked up thing to do. Especially without speaking to him in private about it first, make sure that he was okay with it. Cause you can hate someone and love them all at the same time, that doesn't mean that you are okay with your brother getting with that person. 

And was Paedyn the one that Kitt and his advisor were talking about in his study or did he come up with this on the fly in his craziness. I could have sworn in the first book that there wasnsomething mentioned about him being promised to someone else. Maybe I am wrong though. 

Also how is Paedyn going to react to this. Is she going to be okay and go along with it to survive? Also will Kitt have her killed if she refuses to marry him? What is his whole game plan for that? Will Pae pretend to go along with it and then try and escape with Kai later? 

I need the next book in my hands right now.

I love Pae and Kai so much!!!

There wasn’t a lot of plot in this one?? I was hoping for more story plot than Pae/Kai plot. NOT COMPLAINING!!!! But just wanted a tiiiiiny bit more.

Also that ending??? That the hell, Lauren
