This is going to be my dark horse of 2024. I was expecting only 25% of the amazing story that was delivered. This has epic enemies to lovers, amazing plot twists, yearning, spice, a well designed magic system... when a reviewer I trust DNF'd this book I seriously questioned if I should bother, but as usual, letting myself make up my own mind was the best choice.

Hard disagree with this being labeled YA. This is solidly NA as the themes are intense. Mind the TWs, but barring those, run, don't walk, to read this book.

Sequel coming Feb 2025.

I struggled to put this book down, I wanted to read it at every free second! I will be thinking of the characters a lot, ugh hurry up February 2025….

I cannot think properly after that ending….what, why, how? I guessed the big twist, but there are clues throughout the book. Now I have to wait 7-8 months to find out what happens…

Highly addictive, cat and mouse chase. 
Now I must read the Scarlet Pimpernel and every adaptation of it.

  • .5🌶️ 
  • There was amazing tension the entire book and all of the dialogue was well placed.
  • Great pace with cat and mouse/ enemies to lovers tropes.
  • The main characters make you hate/ love them.
  • Easy universe to fall into and understand.
  • The last quarter of the book was an adrenaline rollercoaster.
  • One of the best “Romantasy” books of 2024.
  • My only negative was that some of the plot points were mildly predictable but made up for with how good the story was when being unfolded.

There was a lot to this book that was easy to guess which made it a little less fun to read. The magic was interesting but I still feel like there is more too it than was explained. I like the characters, the relationships made sense as well as their motivations. The world felt both familiar and Victorian as well as completely new. I wish there had been more from Gedions POV. I felt like his experiences added a ton to the story. If only we could have had an Alex POV too. The storytelling was so good I couldn't put the book down and finished it in a day.
