Cas and Niktos had a son, but he is horny and feeds on desire. Said horniness will avoid the necessity of creating a personality for Thorne, maybe on the second book. He senses (and sees) the FMC being abused, but he is very hungry, so he let's everything happen, and patiently waits for his turn. I’m so happy we are getting an entirely new series to devour from Armentrout and I look forward to seeing what happens next.

I have read every book that JLA has ever written, and I do mean every book. So when she delves into a new world and starts an entirely new series, I get so excited. Which means that it should come as no surprise that the minute I got my hands on this book I was diving in! Has Claude been having trouble sleeping again?” Naomi asked after a handful of moments, her voice lighter than it had been when she walked into the chamber.I did think an editor would improve her work, thus my excitement to see her new book being published by TOR. You say that now, but what if it’s an answer you fear? Because if it is, I won’t lie. Your worry will turn to heartache,” I reminded her. Although the book is quite long and has an extra slow burn, which is the only reason I lowered my rating, it is definitely worth your time. It features a plethora of well-developed supporting characters who are easy to connect with. The detailed and vividly depicted dystopian meets high fantasy world building, along with the intricately crafted magic system, is executed flawlessly. Personally, I found myself more attached to the main characters in this series than those in her previous works (especially Poppy, as mentioned before). The cliffhanger at the end left me reeling, and I am eagerly anticipating what will happen next in the story. I simply cannot wait to read the next book. So in short this is basically the scraps and off-cuts that didn’t make it into FBAA and there you have it, a brand new book! Born with an intuition that never fails, Calista knows her talents are of great value to the power-hungry of the world, so she lives hidden as a courtesan of the Baron of Archwood. In exchange for his protection, she grants him information. When her intuition leads her to save a travelling prince in dire trouble, the voice inside her blazes with warning – and promise. Today he’ll bring her joy. One day he’ll be her doom.

There are usually a few of them that show.” Her brow creased. “I’ve even seen a lord or two in the past. I do hope they show this year.” I ADORED this book! BUT. I couldn't help but notice how murder-happy the author seems to have become in her latest series. Can we go ONE book without someone dying? It truly feels like all the author's previous books were a warm-up for her to hone he From the No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of From Blood and Ash , this is a searing new romance. But I could get inside her mind if I wanted to and find out if she spoke the truth. All I would need to do was open my senses to her and allow that connection to snap to life.Our MMC lord throne was 🫣🥵 he was just 😏☄️ but still I need a better character arc for him there is still so much left to unravel for his characters which I think would be in the following books. The plot twist regarding him that came at the end I have to say I did predict but felt nice to read. I did love our hero, Prince Thorne, and he’s what carried the book for me. I loved his interactions with Calista and their banter in their alone moments were the best. I didn’t do that when I could help it. It was too much of an invasion. A violation. However, knowing that hadn’t stopped me from doing it when it benefited me, had it?
