A disappointing read, unfortunately. The characters are very flat and the MC is particularly disappointing. She goes from illiterate, abused domestic slave to confident semi military ruler with seemingly no trouble or self doubt at all. Honestly, there are far better dark romances out there. I will say, I did appreciate the hint of queer rep but it was very much just a hint.
