Heart of Defiance was good, but it felt very rushed to me. I didn’t think Signy had much chemistry with any of her men because of that. While the book was definitely spicy, I just wasn’t feeling the love between Signy, Jostein, Iko, and Landric. It was really interesting reading part of the backstory of the Darium empire, but I wish we had a reference point for how they got from winning the rebellion to where they are in the Royal Spares series, since this book was supposed to be a prequel of sorts.

I received an ARC of Heart of Defiance from BookSirens. I am leaving this review voluntarily.
