After 40% of the book it flew by and was really good. Took me a minute to get into. Lots of world building and characters to know.
“And then you saw me.” She pauses, bringing her hand up to my cheek. “You say me Draven. Every Broken part of me.” Page 464.
Fae, Betrothal, Fated Mates, Phantom, Princes, and Princesses. Good tension and spice. I loved it. Cliffhanger ending. I cannot wait for the next one.
I really wanted to love it. The premise sounded so magical and interesting that I couldn't wait to dig in. However, I kept finding myself so confused over what was happening and wasn't sure if it was me or if the story was just making me feel so lost. After chapter 8, I realized that I was lost. I was catching a lot of what was going on, but there is so much fluff in between that it wasn't flowing very well. Conversation between characters was stunted because there was so much inner monologue from Emma that I just didn't like. Also, some information would just pop out of nowhere and I would try to fit it in and just couldn't.
I wanted to love this book. I think with a solid edit that it would benefit greatly and I'd give it a go again if that occurs because the premise sounds so beautiful.
