If the two main characters hadn’t been imprisoned for over 300 pages, this would have probably been a 5 star. 
That being said, the use of their imprisonment to uncover the lore  of the main villain was very well done. It could easily have been depressing and tedious but instead it was suspenseful and compelling. 
I finished this book on my lunch break and found myself at barnes and noble after work, picking up the next one in the series.

This book felt a little like an extended novella. I felt like some parts dragged and there was a lot of lore dump. I do love Sera and the way her anxiety is portrayed. It’s so nice to see a badass fmc with anxiety. I love the way Ash cares for her but Nektas is really a favorite. So mature and reasonable . I wish the majority of the book wasn’t spent with Kolis. I hate him and I’m not a huge fan of books where the FMC and MMC are apart for so long.

It was really slow with Sera being captured by Kolis and once her and Ash are back together it's like JLA made up all of the missing sex scenes. I skimmed the last portion because of how MUCH damn sex they were having.
