Let me tell you—this book by CJ Sweet devoured me. I did the immersive read, and the narrators Joe Arden and Andi Eloise in Duet style? Absolutely unhinged perfection. My heart was pounding, my earbuds practically smoking. The dialogue? Sharp as a blade. The banter? Filthy and addictive. As a fellow brat, I felt spiritually aligned with Alaina. She’s the kind of feral, mouthy heroine I’d fight gods beside.

And Dax? The tension, the possessiveness, the raw animal heat—he is the blueprint. Their chemistry was volcanic. I came for the plot, stayed for the chaos, and was left bleeding at that abrupt ending. I’m unwell. I need Part 2 injected directly into my bloodstream.

for the narrator I felt like she did a wonderful job. although I enjoy duet narration audiobooks more I felt like she did a great job differentiating the characters

Unfortunately, I found the final book of the series deeply disappointing. The pacing slowed to a crawl, and the narrative felt repetitive, making it seem like it took forever for anything of significance to happen. I've adored this series and Nisha's writing, but this installment fell flat. There was a noticeable shift from the immersive "show, don’t tell" style of the previous books to a more expository approach, which diminished the overall impact.

That said, the intimate moments between Zarya and Rabin were beautifully written, and their love story remained a highlight. However, I was hoping for more development in the growing tensions between Yasen and the Miraan, which felt like a missed opportunity.

One of my biggest frustrations was Rabin ignoring his intuition despite being so sure of himself. It was difficult to believe that anyone would linger in such an ominous situation, especially with the king repeatedly insisting "just two more days" for weeks. Trusting him in that context felt unrealistic. Additionally, Ekaja's betrayal seemed out of character and lacked sufficient justification.

Despite these issues, I was satisfied with the book’s conclusion, though I wish Rani hadn't been bound to the Jai tree and could have returned to her human form. While the execution of this book fell short, I still deeply appreciate the characters, the unique magic system, and the overarching plot of the series.

I really like the Narrators so this review is mostly about the writing and the story.I found the first half of this book to be quite challenging. The heavy reliance on the protagonist’s inner monologue, along with an excess of telling rather than showing, made it difficult to stay engaged. However, the second half introduced multiple points of view, more dynamic conversations, and actual events, which significantly enhanced the narrative. Despite my initial reservations, I became captivated as the story progressed and am now fully invested in the plot. I sincerely hope the sequel maintains the multiple POV structure rather than reverting to an overly introspective focus.
