I devoured this! It was so easy to read and digest everything thrown at me. While a lot was kept secret from the FMC, Willow, we get Caleb’s POV frequently enough that things are filled in pretty quickly. I loved the disability rep of Willow having ME, and that it played a part in the plot with how her dreams and drawings would drain her. 

Caleb and Willow have a ton of trust issues with each other, which was understandable lol. Willow reacts about you would expect, but they come a long way while on the run and on the way to pack lands. I was NOT expecting everything that happened at the end. That was one hell of a cliffhanger that left me in tears over them😭 I expected such a different outcome after finally meeting with the shaman. I’m excited to get to the next book and hopefully get some more answers and at least a small bit of closure over these two🥹

Thank you so much to the author and the Author Agency for the gifted copy!
