3.5 rounded up. I liked this one!

The synopsis appealed a lot to me, and I wanted to give ST Gibson another shot after Education in Malice sadly wasn't for me. I'm glad I gave them another shot!

The characters were the strongest point in this book for me. Specifically, Moira she was so sweet, and the way she cared so fiercely for Rhys and David had my heart. Rhys and David were very messy individuals, especially with each other, so I'm glad Moira was around to balance them out.

The relationships were also very strong for me. Polyamorous dynamics in fiction are so hard to get right, especially hinge type relationships. The author nailed it in this one. I actually liked the platonic love that David and Moira shared more than the romantic aspects of this polycule lol.

I will be honest and say I wasn't as invested in the plot as I should've been. This was probably just a me thing, but I found myself skimming some of the plot because I didn't care about a lot of the non-magic stuff.

As usual, thank you to Netgalley for the E-ARC in exchange for an honest review :)
