Book: Mistral Hearts by Jaime Ryanne
Reviewed by Romi is Reading
Rating: 4.5/5
What can I say? I loved the Sylveren series from the beginning and it ended with a bang. This series aged like fine wine.
I loved Dae and Ez, Euny and Olaf were fantastic, but Calya and Nocren? Hold onto your panties, girls, because this man will melt them.
But let's start with Calya. I love imperfect heroines and Jaime wrote them fantastically. Calya is driven, selfish, and constantly telling everyone how cold-hearted she is — but under that facade is a heart and a brain. She is determined to make her own path in the world and I love her for it.
Nocren... oh, that man... I am obsessed. From his voice, to his motivations, and his gruff personality — he can handle Calya's fire and make it spark brighter, not dim it. Absolutely fantastic.
I also loved how this book pulls together the whole backstory of the series and doesn't leave readers hanging.
Spice.... oooooh reeaaallly delicious... romance is burning and everything is catching on fire. It is not slow burn so dont expect it but it is not insta love so don't worry about it.
I will be recommending this series till end of my time to everyone who wants characters that will speak to your heart.
