This was a good follow-up to the last book and sets up for the last nicely. This book focused more on Emilia and Wrath's relationship which still pushes the plot forward. The reveal that

the marriage bond was still intact fell flat because I already assumed it was since their matching tattoos never faded

. I feel like some of the twists came out of nowhere and were explained as just "part of the curse". However, I somewhat forgive that since we learn things from Emilia's point of view and it seems she is confused even more in this book. I will say that it has kept me from guessing the ending. I still have hope that all the strings come together and are explained in the next book.
