I won't delve to much on the plot as to not ruin it for others but I will say that this was a book that was a great page turner and every character held my interest to know more about them, it was great to read a story that showed the life of a girl that had a much loved but hard life in poverty and the struggles that she had to go through. And that ending paragraph made me very excited to dive into the second book, I want to see how his relationship with Fallon and his comeback as king take place. I’m trying to get back into the fantasy-romance kindle unlimited groove and randomly picked this one up.

Excerpts and links may be used, provided full and clear credit is given to Shannon Holmes (MediaShadowReads) with appropriate and specific direction to the original content. Enemies to lovers (kind of), forced proximity but a slow, slow burn not only on the romance side, but the story too.He's mysterious, strong, caring and protective but with a darker side that will do what it takes to protect his people. Schon alleine rein äußerlich: Der Schutzumschlag (dustjacket) ist wunderschön und hochwertig gestaltet, das eigentliche Buch hat nochmals ein eigenes Design (undercover design) und im Buch sind zwei Fanarts von den beiden Protagonisten. Fallon was a magicless halfling who was given a prophecy, free the crows and they will make you queen. Those characters are amazing and I’m tired of books that don’t do their due diligence in making you love the people moving around the main character, instead skipping right to the action.

Po jaką książkę sięgnęliście z myślą, że pewnie Wam się spodoba, ale po zakończeniu… nie spodziewaliście się, że zachwyci Was aż tak bardzo? I think what ruins a lot of this book for me, well besides the MC being VERY naive and immature, is the fact that we as readers can see where the story is going from the very beginning. After all, I was the magicless halfling loved by beasts but loathed by every pure-blooded faerie at court. I did not think any book by Olivia could knock out Celestial for the top spot, but we may just have a new winner.From the different creatures, to all the land, islands and laws, I felt like I could clearly imagine it all right in front of me. Also, I could have forgiven her stupidity if she at least had a good heart, but she's selfish and immature. With an exciting, action packed ending, I cannot wait for more of the crows and whether the Fae and crows can learn to live together, but especially I need more Lore and Fallon, as she learns more truths about her origins and the prophecy. The plot has fantastic potential but it's execution is sloppy and poorly explained, leaving confusing and awkwardly paced world building. Ich hab das Buch zunächst als Ebook gelesen und es mir danach gemeinsam mit dem zweiten Teil bestellt und da das Hardcover mich so angesprochen hat, hab ich es gleich nochmal gelesen!
