Uhm loved it until the end WTF. Rude.

“You wanted danger in your life, my Queen… allow me to oblige.”

I’ll say it, I LOVED this dark fantasy romance. It wrapped me up in a warm blanket, spanked me, and ripped my heart out all in one breath.

If you plan on reading this here is your TW, abuse and sexual assault

This story has a lot of promise! I hear it’s being edited and I’d love to read a copy when that happens. My issue isn’t with grammar errors, it’s the repetitive phrases being used. I have close to 800 highlights and notes of fists being clenched and brows being raised etc. Also, there are a few things that don’t make sense and hopefully after editing it’ll be crystal clear.

Jack has become a dear friend to me and so I was super excited to read her book again. I was lucky enough to beta read this book, but I think the second time reading it, it’s so much better than the first time. Jack added a lot of new things after the buried that made me fall in love with this book even more. And because I read this book already I got to see things that I didn’t see before such as foreshadowing and symbolism and other things. If you really like this book I definitely suggest that you re-read it because you will see things that you didn’t see before.

This book is the perfect enemies to lovers fantasy adult book. And I do say adult because this book deals with themes that can be triggering to some people such as abuse and sexual assault. Nevertheless I really loved this book. I feel like this book might be the next throne of glass just because how epic this world is and how epic the characters are. The romance was very heavy in this book it’s still had enough adventure and world building to make it an epic fantasy that could become a classic. It’s very much Lord of the rings Game of Thrones.

I fell in love with not only the main characters of this book but also the secondary characters. Aydra and Draven were super romantic and super sweet especially Draven. Aydra is such a bad ass and Draven is such a hottie. I also loved the youngers Nyssa and Dorian and I’m excited to see their journey in the second book because that relationship between them is so cute. I’m also excited to read more about Balandria and of course my main girl Lex!

If you love epic fantasy romance badass characters spice and just an amazing world I highly recommend this book!

I AM A WRECK AFTER FINISHING. This book was soo good. I loved the FBAA series and this is the first book to make me fall absolutely in love with characters the way I did with FBAA. If you need a dark fantasy and quite a lot of spice, read. DO LOOK AT THE TRIGGER WARNINGS BEFOREHAND.

This book had some of the most incredible world building and I loved the character driven plot line. This book can be very dark and has A LOT OF SPICE and I loved every second of it. The romance in this book was *chefs kiss* and I found all of the side characters so intriguing. While I’m still hurting over that ending I can’t WAIT to dive into the second book. WHAT A GREAT START TO THIS SERIES OMG

What the fuck was that.
Someone say sike right now!!! I never should have read this. I should have known booktok would fuck me up like this. I knew I should have been more suspicious. I was curious and now look at me. On the floor, weepy and sleep deprived. What am I meant to do now? I can’t live like this?!!

Spoiler

I’m only ever reading HEA for the rest of my days. I can’t handle this. My mental health is too fragile for this.

I’m to emotionally invested in Aydra and Draven. I couldn’t give a shit about Nyssari and Dorians journey. Everyone can burn for all I care. For what they did to me and my favs. You know what. I am pretending this is a standalone. Anything more, or added will ruin it. Especially after that ending. No I’m not continuing with this series and I won’t forgive the author for my heartache.

I need a lie down and some water. I have a headache. I’m dehydrated from crying.

I might write a real review. I guess when I have the will to live.
