Malachi and Kadeesha are two of the best written MCs I have come across in a fantasy in a while. He is devious, deadly, and DELICIOUS in the best of ways. She is cunning, caring, and freaking brilliant and also FREAKING DELICIOUS. The two of them together? I have no words. The complexity of their relationships, to each other, to their families, to their friends, to the courts which they serve, to the wider universe in which they exist is just mind blowing. Davenport did an incredible job creating this all-encompassing world that I just wanted to get lost in. I wanted to know more about every single character; there were relationships growing and changing in the wings that I wanted to know more about. The main story line was so satisfying, each twist and turn made me go OH! YES! OOOO I didn't see that coming! OF COURSE! I just loved the ride, and the payoff was just so worth it.
The magic? Superb. The drama? Delicious. The characters? Amazing. The spice? SCORCHING.
The relationship between Malachi and Kadeesha is so freaking amazing. The journey from enemies to lovers is so good. SO DANG GOOD. The push and pull, the plotting, the ANGST, it SUSTAINS MY SOUL. This is enemies to lovers done 100% right.
I was so lucky to have gotten this ARC from NetGalley.
