“We’re not enemies, Prince Melodramatic. We’re just… I don’t know, antagonistic acquaintances.” 

Marius is a botany nerd who can read minds and who has to work with the infuriating fae prince Rakken who's too arrogant for his own good when one of Marius' colleagues is murdered. These two have great banter and do enemies-to-lovers so well.

I loved this book. I haven't read the previous 4 in the series but this one works as a standalone. I really enjoyed the audiobook, I thought the narrator was great.

Just as good as the rest of the series, slightly more adult which I enjoyed because it felt like the books grew with me.
