The story wasn’t terrible… it was just mediocre.
The book did touch on lesbophobia that wlw face and how men think they can/should be able to change them.

Set in a world well on its way to the next world-wide flood, Natasha will do anything it takes to get her and her Royal Flyers on the Royal Fleet, even if it means trying to marry Prince Nikolai. Meanwhile, new flyer Elle Neves is plotting the courts destruction and falling for Natasha at the same time.
I loved the plot of this book so much! There is so much interesting world-building and I love the lore woven throughout. The elements of religion and fables mixed together in trying to teach the future how to survive the floods, and the courtly intrigue!
I also really loved the main characters, Natasha and Elle. They are both so determined, but in different ways and for different reasons. I love a main character filled with spite, so I was rooting for Elle instantly. Their tension and chemistry was also really good!
The only thing about this I didn't love was the ending. It felt a little to unresolved and I was left with questions I wanted answers to. Maybe a potential sequel?
