Thank you to the publisher for sending me an arc via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

Magic, enemies to lovers, forbidden romance, twists. So much happens in this book but somehow it works. When Josslyn Drake ends up as a magic container, she has to ignore everything she grew to fear of magic, and embrace it to help those who she cares for.

I loved the magic system. It’s constructed very well and I think it’s been fleshed out nicely. I felt that the beginning moved a little fast but it levelled out as the book continued on. After the halfway mark I was captives and I didn’t want to put it down.

I really liked the cast of characters and o think Rhodes set the end up nicely for the second and final instalment in this new duology.
