This was really great. Interesting and flawed characters that made sense. It's great. I wish it was paced better and developed some side characters and conflict more but it was great.

This is everything I love in a romance fantasy book. I like my romance with a bit of fantasy thats easy to digest. I don't want to use my brain to piece together complicated magic systems when im reading.
This was perfect for me. Was it predictable yea a little, but was I still unable to put it down because it was so good and I had to keep going, yes.
if you love blood & ash and ACOTAR I def think you'll enjoy this.

I really enjoyed this book and the entire Broken Kingdom series. I love the Beauty and the Beast vibes and the Viking elements that make this a unique fantasy read.

Meh, I started the second one and quit halfway through. The dialogue and character building is super lazy. The plot is almost there, but falls flat.

Loved the start of this series!! I finished this book in a day, and immediately downloaded the second one. My only critique was that sometimes when the author was describing the world building and the magic/people of the land, it was hard to follow and just confusing at parts.
Other than that, I LOVED this story!
