Sequels are known for not being as good as their predecessors - but this book broke the mould. Follow Adrian and Nova as they change all the rules when it comes to “enemies-to-lovers”. This is not usually my ideal trope, but it works in the case. They’re enemies AND lovers - still unaware of each other’s prodigy identities. This book left me with so many unanswered questions - but that doesn’t anger me since this is a trilogy and hopefully those answers will come in the third installment. This entire world is unique and vibrant and intriguing. I haven’t been this involved in a series in AGES. Now for book 3.
