“He’s fire and brimstone. I’m shattered ice. Our collision is steam and destruction, destined to dissipate, but I’ll gladly burn beneath him until the world comes crumbling down.”

Raeve is employed by the rebellion as an assassin. She enjoys getting to take out the corrupt elite, it satisfies her. When a bounty hunter comes for her head, her entire world gets turned upside down. She finds herself in prison awaiting her imminent execution by the very people she has been fighting against. Kaan is hunting moonshards to assuage his grief and in his hunt stumbles into the prison holding Raeve. The past starts to break through the carefully constructed barriers Raeve has put up in her mind, but some memories should just stay hidden. 

This was beautiful! The magic system was fairly basic being elemental, but the dragons were more complicated than most worlds with dragons and that was so cool to read. There were pieces of this story that were very predictable for me, but they were still written so beautifully that I was able to enjoy it anyway and I actually felt a little thrill when I was right instead of disappointed that I called it. Having to wait a year for the next one is going to be so very difficult! I'm not sure there will be another book that will compare to this one.
