This book answers the question, "You just saved the kingdom - what are you going to do next??" And the answer is, obviously, fall in love and attempt to get married. This book focuses much more on the development of Kemen and his struggle to show his feelings while upholding his sense of honor and duty. While there is less action than in the first book, this is a wonderful continuation of Kemen and Hakan's story.

This one is a little different from the first volume. This volume is told in a different POV in each chapter, revolving around two characters as they creative a relationship with each other. I can't quite remember though if I was thrown off or not. I had a feeling about the new character and decided not to like the character but ended up loving her because reasons. For some reason my first reaction to possible love interests for characters I adore is resentment and it's heinous.
The title is well-chosen and does intimate well to what the reader can expect in the story. The action is, in my opinion, much greater than the action in the last volume and I was not disappointed (especially with the slight gore *cringe*). I was always on the edge of my seat with the suspense and hope that nothing bad was going to happen like major character deaths and all that. I'm glad none of it was boring and I always had to force myself to stop reading sometimes (because I chose to read this in bed at night).
This was also such an emotional roller coaster (in a positive sense). My heart was having a real good field day and the ending made me really happy. I'm really glad that I chose to purchase this book.

I found the different time periods a little confusing but it didn't matter too much as the romance was the main thread of the story and it felt like Kemen's journey was more of a sideline.
The narrator has a lovely voice.
