Follow up to The Gilded Ones and looks like a third book is on its way. I enjoyed it, but not as much The Gilded Ones.

I do love Ixa though ❣️

I liked the pacing of this book more than the first, but I still am not sure how I feel about where the story went. It's still an interesting premise and I'll probably pick up the last book whenever it releases.
