Can’t believe I’ve finished the series! There’s so much that goes on in every book and tons to enjoy. I’ll try not to spoil but as this is the fourth book in the series, bit difficult not to. A lot of the overall plot points come together and are finalised and we also have some new ones being introduced. Boleyn shines in balancing the new and old plot points well, I wasn’t confused with any of them. She’s also quite strong in forging relationships and the characters that come with them. They’re well-written, likeable, I want to root for them to achieve their goals. The villains, too, are quite well-written and complex. I like having a good villain (not like good deeds/hearted good, you know what I mean).
Morgan and Draven have been though a lot and they still continue to go through a lot! Can’t they catch a break? Let them just relax, watch a play together, just sleep for most of the day rather than having to put our fires and swing swords constantly. But, even though they were hounded by literally everything and everyone against them they still managed to have their happy and sweet moments! I’ve loved them together from the first book (Enemies-to-lovers, need I say more?) I love that they rely on each other so easily. They’re connected to each other, know the others’ strengths and weaknesses. Able to step in and help wherever needs be.
Plus, I’m always up for a man who loves a strong woman. Draven’s been like that from the first book – oh, Morgan’s holding a sword? Draven’s basically got heart eyes. He’s more of an ‘alpha male’ type character (and mostly those don’t want their female love interests to be equal in strength, or even stronger) and he isn’t upset. Which made me like him more.
There’s a lot in this book, just like the rest of the series so while I want to recommend it to a lot of people; it definitely can get confusing quite often. But there are readers (me, most of the time) who like confusing books so it works!
