If you’re looking for a quick and simple fantasy romance with Found Family, ‘Who did this to you’, ‘Touch her and you die’ tropes then I think you’ll like this one.
Although, the book has some parts that might be sensitive to some readers cause it can be quite graphic so please read the trigger warning below.
What I like the most out of this story is the main character, Saoirse. She’s surprisingly relatable, she’s strong in a different way. I really enjoy following her journey of finding herself.
I feel so bad for her and I feel so satisfied to know how she stands up for herself at the end, it was a beautiful and powerful scene right there.
I love getting to know the world building as the story goes, learning different type of powers for each kingdoms as well as learning the history of the gods and goddess.
I’m hoping we'll see a lot more in the next book.
Overall, it’s a very enjoyable read. I was hooked right from the beginning, the short chapters, lovely characters and easy to read writing style made me kept flipping the pages until I didn’t realize I was already halfway through.
I’m really looking forward to see what happens next after that particularly interesting cliff-hanger at the end!
Thank you to Book of Matches Media and the author for giving me an e-ARC of the book and for having me on this book tour. I’m leaving this review voluntarily!
