2/5 spice
Tropes
- forced proximity
-I will protect you
My Thoughts I loved the build between the two main characters, especially when we were introduced to both separately and it built to them meeting, I thought that was done really well. She needs to prove herself and is a strong guard. He's a nobility of questionable character sent on a questionable quest, but neither is what the other expects. I think the author did a really good job at giving enough world building for context but then focused in on the characters
Triggers -Cheating
-Violence
Representation Nope
Spice It had some spice, but not the main focus of the story. The spice that was in the book was well written and kinda sweet
Special Notes Looking forwards to reading the next book in the series as I think this book only really touched the surface of the world the author has created
