My first fantasy romance and first Fae Fantasy and probably the right level for me as an introduction. Enjoyed the story, liked the characters, and will likely read the next in the trilogy.

The romance elements worked pretty well (enemies to lovers trope and a reluctant romance due to prophecies) and weren't annoying or frustrating as a reader, but I can do without the spicy scenes as they added nothing to the story for me. Suffice to say I don't think I'll ever be a reader that actively seeks out many, if any, other Romantasy novels but I enjoyed this one and think the world, magics and story were strong enough for me to continue the trilogy.
