I would have never guessed that this was a debut novel from DM Darcy. The character and worldbuilding was exquisite perfection. With twists to keep me guessing and turns to rip my heart out, put it back, only to do it all again. Let me tell you I loved every minute of it!

Paige and PJ were absolutely wonderful in the performance of this book. They made me love them as Ves and Ryc one moment and hate them as secondary characters the next. Which tells me they're masters at their craft. Both have such amazing range that each character was a brand new voice.

Definitely recommend this one if you love romantasy between one above and one below. I cannot wait for book two.

Barbara is amazing. I think this may be my fav of the series. I also loved that the stories intertwined with the other two books. Really this was the perfect wrap up to the series. I enjoyed the narrator's performance in this book though wish the voices were a little different.
