After reading book 1 and 2 of this series, I just had to read book 3. It gives me ACOTAR vibes which is one reason I really enjoy this series. Estrella and Caldris are always doing everything to protect each other in this book, and they do not want to lose each other if they can prevent it. I need book 4 in my hands so bad but it does not have an offical release date which is killing me (dear publisher, please can I have an arc of book 4? thanks!). I highly recommend this series if you love ACOTAR and want something with a similar vibe, plot and storyline.
Quotes:
- “Sometimes, it is far easier to see the good in others than it is to see it in ourselves. Sometimes, the hardest thing to do is understand that while we are not perfect, the way we defend ourselves is not an indication of our character but purely of our will to live so that we might do the right thing when given the freedom to do so.”
- “All I wanted was to stand beside her in all her glory. All I wanted was to love her for eternity. That meant loving all of her. The powerful parts of her that possessed magic so strong it coated my tongue. The sweet parts that were so unaccustomed to unconditional love that she looked at it suspiciously. The innocent flower that had been scorched by a hard life, and the female who rose from the ashes of it, ready to right the wrongs done to her. That was love. Not whatever Mab thought love was.”
- “Until chaos reigns…and eternity begins anew.”
- “She made them love her, and as such, took the first step in building her army.”
- “pulling my nightgown up inch by inch so that my calves showed as I crossed my legs. “We both know I’m not leaving.” My mate’s eyes dropped to the exposed flesh, his head tilting to the side as that animalistic desire spread over his face and washed away all traces of sadness.”
- “I am going to love every moment of watching your journey, Estrella Barlowe,” I murmured, touching a thumb to her tense bottom lip. It softened in response, allowing me to lean down and touch my lips to hers. “And when you’ve finished molding the world to your desire, I’m going to have a portrait of your creation hung on the walls of Catancia. I’ll make you stand before it, make you look at what you’ve done—and I will be the first of many to tell you I told you so.”
- “More powerful than my mate.”
- “My mate is my home,”
- “There was only one person he should be calling his anything, only one woman who should be his queen.”
- “I felt like a woman, but I needed to embrace the fact that femininity did not equal weakness. That it was only the standards men placed upon us that made us believe the two were mutually exclusive.”
- “You are meant for great things, Princess Estrella.”
Tropes:
- Fated Mates
- Possessive MMC
- Morally Grey MMC
