Spark of the Everflame is a great start to a fantasy series. An enemies to lovers, true reveal of heritage and coming into ones power kind of story. Sometimes in fantasy books I find that the FMC is hard to connect to. I'm either very irritated or indifferent towards them - but that was not the case for Diem. She's not perfect in anyway, frankly she could do with some self control in more than one situation. Regardless, she's a very good FMC so far, gonna have to read the remaining books to see if it stays that way.
With the MMC, I don't have any thoughts on him since we don't know much beyond the fact that he's a prince. Hopefully, we get more insight possibly a couple POV chapters in his voice.
All in all, this was a very decent start to this story. Very curious to see where this goes!
