Simply put... I loved this book and ended up DEVOURING it! I love Keller. I love how he LITERALLY gets on his knees and begs for her.. 🫠Sienna... Perfect. I LOVED her sass and how she learned to own and demand what she wanted. The Spice.. Chiefs Kiss ...The ending.. TEARS ... The Epilogue.. HAPPY TEARS

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I found the pacing to be steady. The plot was very simple and easy to follow. I was hooked within the first 4 chapters. The relationship development between the FMC and MMC was great.

.5 🌶️ [just kissing]
I don’t tend to read many YA fantasy books anymore but even without the spicy scenes I’m used to, I felt their connection and was rooting for them the entire time.

The ending was great, I’m so glad I have the whole set so I don’t have to wait before I can start the next book.

I’d say this is only 

1 🌶️  in spice, but the bit we get is excellent.

I loved this book. It took me about tor first 100 pages to really get sucked in, but after that, I was hooked and did not want to put it down!

The ending was not what I expected, which is always great. 

I can’t wait for the next book and am so excited to see where the story goes!

It was okay. It was definitely overhyped and made to seem like I was going to be crying the entire book. I won't lie and say some stuff wasn’t sad, cuz it was, but I didn't shed a single tear.
