Why read it?

For fans of slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers fantasy, this book is gold.

The writing is beautiful, and I appreciated how it took a long time for the heroine and hero to trust each other and break down their walls. Both characters are deeply flawed, yet you still root for their happiness.

The world-building is lovely and folkloric. Getting into the steamy parts takes a while, but it’s worth the wait!

From Avalon's list on romance for empowering escapism.
