I was not expecting to enjoy this book as much as I did. I thought the story pacing was really good, the characters were really interesting, and the world was pretty well built. I do think the romance was a little faster than it maybe needed to be (especially if this is a 4+ book series), but it also didn't bother me too much in this situation. I thought it mostly worked for the characters, though a slightly slower burn would have been even more delicious as a reader. I was refreshed by the FMC, while she made some decisions that made me shake my head, she also made good decisions. She felt like a more real person, sometimes doing the thing I wanted her to and other times not.
