Pros:
-This book had very little going for it. It was definitely not at all what I was expecting. I decided to give this two stars solely because of how fascinating the premise is. I love the idea of storm magic and how the storms are almost sentient beings. I just wish it was more fleshed out and I understood more about it and more was explained.

Cons:
- It has now been 4 days since I finished this book and I can barely remember the characters names. I honestly thought Cassius was the most real character. I felt like I knew more about him and I actually wanted to know more. Aurora and Locke were not characters I came to care about and I honestly do not really care what will happen to them.
- This book is supposedly a “fantasy book”, but it is lacking so much in that category. It is definitely a romance novel and you can tell that Cora Carmack is a romance writer (and there is nothing wrong with that), but I wanted an amazing fantasy book and instead I got a romance novel disguised as a fantasy book.

I will not be continuing with this series because I while the magic system fascinated me, I did not care about the characters enough to keep reading more about them in future novels.
