[15/77]
⤷ this is book 15 of 77 books i have downloaded for free on amazon kindle, so it may be time to finally go through them all. oh god, wish me luck.
this is really underdeveloped, yet i still had fun reading it! i could believe that the seira and toryn would become a couple, and while i do believe some chemistry, it was somewhat fast for me. but then again, it's a novella, so making it a slow-burn is kind of hard. in any way, despite it being objectively "not enough" for anything above a 3, it was still quite enjoyable.

This is why I still give a chance to Kindle freebies Because I discover hidden gems and new authors.
Nicely written. Strong heroine, likable hero. Slow burn romance.

This was an enjoyable, quick read that could have used some more world building. But overall, the story was fun.

Good story
I was pleasantly surprised by this book. It has intrigue, romance, huntsman centaurs and warrior-priestesses. The characters are mischievous and brave and daring. I feel like this book only touches the surface of what these characters are capable of and I’m looking forward to seeing them grow and what secrets they reveal in the next book.

Fantasy. Centaurs, Witches, Soul Mages (Necromancers). Enemies-to-Lovers. One 'horse'. One bed.
"Still, he'd find a way to protect her even if he had to betray every last scrap of trust he'd been building up with her kver the years. He'd do it if it meant keeping her safe. He'd rather fe her hatred than see her freedom curtailed."

imaginative endeavour and I did appreciate the story and the fact it had a centaur as the hero but there was also something missing for me as well. It’s of novella length and the story is concluded in two other parts.
It didn’t quite capture my attention in the way I was hoping the chemistry for me was slightly off and Seira seemed to change tack very swiftly from she didn’t really want Toryn to wanting to have his babies. Still, the writing was fine and it definitely was different.
I don’t think if I’m going to be continuing with this series there was nothing really wrong with this I just found myself heavily skimming with this mostly because I was bored and not very invested Overall though this was a sweet beginning to the series.

For me, romances are all about the characters, and I didn't find myself warming to Siera, who is the viewpoint character for the first four chapters (which is as far as I got). I also found myself completely uninterested in how the couple would get together, or anything about the politics.

I had fun with this one! So quick review-- we have a slow burn enemies to partners to potential lovers Romeo/Juliette kind of storyline where I liked both the mains.
Bullet points of the story:
Centaur x Human couple
Huntsman x Warrior Priestess both pressured by families over years to settle down
Warring species & lack of mates on both sides
Giving into their feelings would take something from each side if they were to fall for each other-not to mention they would be considered captives
Both come together to fight an old enemy and realize their feelings might be inevitable
Liked the short and sweet story and may read on for some schmexy time in the next book?
