Note: This book is not a standalone, and may contain triggers for some readers.

When I seen this book on kindle unlimited I was really intrigued by the blurb and instantly downloaded, I loved the sound of it and thought it would be a book I would enjoy. While I did enjoy it, it wasn’t what I expected but held my attention.

I love Winter’s character, she holds her own and doesn’t back down. I also loved Caiden and enjoyed the romance blossoming between him and winter but found their romance cane to be very quick. I also loved Weston, Cassius and Zayde they all have their own personalities and I loved them all.

The story kept my interest and ended on a mean cliff hanger the great thing about that though was the second book is already out so I didn’t have to wait long to read it.

The POV is told by both Winter and Caiden which I enjoyed, I found it easy to follow and an enjoyable read, I also enjoyed the authors writing style.

“King Caiden, huh? If I’m the king, then get on your knees and worship me.”

“No, you don’t. You and me—we’re brother and sister. You and Cade—you’re…fire. A blazing inferno, burning everything in your path.”
