I got the first book during the one of the Stuff Your Kindle Days and the cover looked interested and I struggled with the first book as it was the first time I read a bully romance and the first book was a major information dump so I was wondering how this book was going to go and it was a lot better than the first book.  

This book is still based on Lyra, and she is the future Night Queen so she must hide her identity until her fated mates prove themselves worthy of the title Knight. Traditionally the Night Queen has at least one mate from each seasonal court. She has had one of her mates, Axel from the Spring Court reject her. But she has found a mate in the Summer Court. She has found the happiness she once thought was only a dream with Vale. He is everything she could have hoped for, and with his unwavering loyalty, she has finally found peace and restored her faith in fate. However, the shadow of the rejection still lingers, and his unrelenting presence sparks questions about his true intentions. As a dissenting coalition emerges in the kingdom, Axel’s involvement comes into question, forcing Lyra to confront her feeling sand decides whether he is truly the villain or the victim.  

I loved Vale. I loved his chapter. I love him. He is so sweet and hot, and I want one. I loved that Lyra finally got one of her mates. I still love the relationships that Lyra has with her friends and with her family. The way that her family was so protective of her, and her brothers were willing to fight for her, but they couldn’t do anything. I loved the LGBT aspect of it. I loved that Vale was sucked straight into the family and was willing to die for Lyra. It was an easy read with only 207 pages and within 150 pages there was a lot of world-building and a lot of magic skills.  

I still cannot tell the dads apart; they were all blended into one character that it hurt my head a bit when they were all in the same chapter. It was hinted as a why choose smut filled book, but yet there was minimal smut. I am assuming that the why choose bit will be happening soon with the cliffhanger and that she has 2 more mates. 

I still don’t trust Axel. He is such a tool, like just go away and I would love to kick Axel in the balls. He was just an absolutely tool. He does not deserve forgiveness, and I hope he doesn’t get forgiveness either.
