Favorite quote:
“Because I want to save you, Leda!” he said, and he looked disgusted with himself. “As if I’m a knight from a fairy tale and you’re a damsel in distress. I want to get you away from here, and cure your illness and keep you safe, away from Azaria and your father. But that is not how life works!” He let out a shuddering breath.”

In this story, the girl choses herself.

I absolutely adored this read, and am so thankful to BookSirens, the publisher, and the author for my advanced reader copy. I loved Leda and her character development throughout the book. This read could be a hidden gem but instead I'm going to shout from the rooftops about it to everyone who will listen. This is such a refreshing fantasy world that feels new and yet familiar and I'm hooked. When can I get my hands on the sequel?
