Okay but this was so good!!! 

This is primo enemies to lovers, right here. Not the <I> oh you were mean to me one time so we don't get along </I> stuff. I'm talking <I>You are the whole reason my people are suffering and dying so I will destroy your whole kingdom </I> kind of energy, you know?

And I love these characters! Lara is a baddie from the start. She was RAISED to destroy her enemies. And I like that in my protagonists 😆

Great slow burn romance. Lara and Aren's relationship was perfectly paced. 

And the last few chapters KILLED me. Thank God I don't have to wait for the sequel 🙏🏻
