If there's anything Lasairiona can do, it's the perfect blend of hot spice, real emotions, and vulnerability. Cora and Sterling are fantastic, and I couldn't stop reading. I also loved the roles each character played. Cora was a domme while Sterling was a switch, and I enjoyed those dynamics. Another thing about Lasairiona's books is the fierce friendships. Not only do all the female characters go to bat for one another, but the male ones do as well.  I've been reading this series since day one and it's so great to see the world expand into something so lovely. I wish the third-act conflict didn't have to happen, but I also know it made sense in this context. That's why I loved both epilogues so much; they helped both characters feel finished and developed. Overall, I can't wait for the next book and I'm in for whatever Lasairiona writes! Thank you to her for providing the ARC!
