This was a very well-crafted fantasy.
If you take away the kink (obviously you’d have to re-work the Magic system), the book could stand on its own. Of course, I loved the kink in this. The way it’s used in relation to magic was actually really interesting. Consent was a big, big thing, which is so important in any kink lifestyle (one of the reasons I have such a problem with how people idolize 50 Shades of Grey - that is not well done kink). I felt there was a good balance between the sex and the plot and the kinks aren’t used in a sensational way. It is important to the story and characters.
I will for sure be continuing this series, and if you love a great mix of fantasy and sex, well this is totally the book for you!
Each chapter does contain trigger warnings and kink warnings; they’re also crafted in a way that feels organic with the story, so it was great.
