Persevered through this book as I adore Hafsah’s other work but I found this story confusing? Perhaps it’s the sheer amount that’s covered in so few pages, perhaps a slightly longer book would have helped. Maybe, once I read the next book in this series I’ll be less confused. 
But I’m glad to have read it. Feels like the early books from a great writer, can’t wait to see what she puts out next! 
Although this book has so much more romance or hints to it, we hunt the flame felt so much more exciting even though they barely touch!
