At first Asha’s personality was coming across similar to Liz’s for me but then as we discussed grief and loss and how different people handle those things it morphed for me. I really enjoyed finally reading about her and hemalo working through their problems and coming together and their happily ever after was so freaking happy I legitimately almost started tearing up. I also liked that Asha was able to go and protect him and they were able to be there and nurture other living beings. Oh and I liked Claire’s POV’s and her friendship with Asha. what a lovely read!
