This is one of those fantasy romances that are very much romance and very little fantasy. Which is fine, but I really like my fantasy romances with a 50/50 on both, or a little more fantasy then romance. The world building was quite poor, and much of the world is left to the readers imagination or not explained at all. The romance and smut was good, but this book was really just a romance in disguise. I didn’t hate this, but I was quite done with this one by the end. I don’t think I’ll continue on with the series, but if you like mostly romance in your fantasy romance this one is probably for you.
