Volume 4 tells mostly of new characters Laila and Leily, twins who are on the hunt for handsome, rich husbands. Smith stumbles across them and stays in their village for a bit. The twins are eager to be married, but they need to learn how to be their own person apart from each other. Two village brothers, Sarm and Sami, who have known them their whole lives enter the picture. Laila and Leily learn to lower their expectations, discover themselves, and discover that they each like their respective betrothed.

We also get a little more of Azel and the clan's storyline, tensions with Russia, and the potential of the Persian army to help. Mori continues to weave historical aspects into these slice-of-life scenes, as always expertly drawn and told.

I found the twins very annoying and didn't care for their chapters. The art is beautiful though

The newest set of brides did not draw me in as fast as the last two. BUT the final two chapters in this book that were focused on them were adorable.

When they both think about how they feel bad for the other sister because they got the better brother. Dawww

I am really cheering for the girl from the previous books who is looking for a husband. I understand her POV of being the loud brash girl. I am excited that the young man liked her audacity.
