The beginning was a bit rough, but once the story fell into a groove I enjoyed the mystery and fantasy of the story telling and will definitely read the next book.

We love an outspoken female lead ⚔️

Absolutely in love with Isolde's strength and grit. The way she spoke her mind and put men and women in their place. 

Also, a king who worships his queen's fuck-with-me-and-you-will-die attitude gets an A+ in my book.

I wish the big reveal (that was pretty obvious) had happened sooner. I didn't enjoy this enough to read the next book. And the reviews of it seems to be horrible.

I'm left feeling satisfied with what I got and I don't regret reading it. I just wish this was a stand-alone.
