I thought that this book what pretty good, but not as well written as the first, though it is better than most other books I've read.
I just have so many questions. Like what is Callum doing? WHY WOULD HE TELL KITT TO MARRY PAEDYN? How will the court react? How will PAEDYN react? She can't say no, or it's her head, which to be honest, she might prefer.
I can't wait for April 2025!
