This book felt different and repetitive after the first book. I understand if the author wanted to build the relationship between the FMC and MMC but it got repetitive quickly when there were other ways to build that relationship and keep the story moving. Even with the relationship being the main focus I didn’t feel a ton of more building between them than what we got originally in the first book. There was some character growth from them but nothing that needed a whole book as the focus. 
I wanted more storyline and world building and that’s on me for having those as my expectations of this book. 

The ending was just confusing to me. I can see if the author is just trying to keep Paedyn and Kai apart to have drama but it just left me saying “What?” Also Calum is alive and is the advisor to Kitt? I just feel like I missed things and the end had me lost.
