The progression in the relationship between Max and Tisaanah  was the selling point of this book, and the thing that kept me invested in the story even though I found a plot to be lacking in some parts. The descriptions were very abstract, and I personally, found it very hard to follow what was going on in the fighting scenes as well as when magic was being described. I found the story engaging and well paced.  The relationships between the main protagonists and side-characters were very well done. The reveals of Max's and  Tisaanah's past was done perfectly and they would always deepen my understanding of the character, making me feel and care for them even more. Ending of a chapter would always leave me wanting more romance or more worldbuilding/magic. So much that I read the book in two sittings.
Some of the things that I hope to see improve in the next book are expansion of the world, better and more in-depth explanation of the magic as well. Also I would love to see side characters a bit more well flesh out (their backgrounds, families...) beside just the relationship with the two main protagonists. I feel like this story has a lot of potential, so I'm excited to see if the sequel lives up to the expectation.
Would recommend to the fans of Sarah J. Mass.
