Review
The story is well written, I loved the characters, the world building and the underlying love story. The world building is on spot, and at the same time doesn’t slow down the story. There was plenty of action and intrigue. I was gripped by the story from page one. Sevannah Storm is truly a master storyteller. Her other books are now on my TBR list. You hear the story from different pov’s, so you not only know why the main character does certain things and feels about them, but also from others. It’s a standalone book, but could have easily been a series, due to the excellent world building. The book follows a portion of the life of the orphaned Princess Jenasso. The romance is slow-burn, however with all the action taking place, it’s not just a book for lovers of fantasy romance, but also suited for fantasy readers. All the characters were dynamic and well written. I just didn’t want to put the book down.
