I’m at a loss for words right now… what the hell was that ending? What the hell is going on? I need to get to the second book ASAP because I want and NEED answers. I was sat for this whole audio; I couldn’t wait to get back to it whenever I had to put it down to do what needed to be done just so I could be completely focused on it. I even thought it would be my five-star read for the month, a great way to end the month of April… now I’m confused as hell, and I’m real mad about it (not as mad as Reyla is, though).
I liked the scenes with Merrick, and I loved how he protected her, but I kind of wish he would’ve put his mother in her place because her behavior towards her new daughter-in-law was just gross. Erisandra was just dismissive and rude to Reyla from the start, which immediately gave me the ick. I instantly wrote her off and didn’t even want to give her the benefit of the doubt. To have her ladies in waiting act the same way as she did towards the QUEEN, or soon-to-be Queen (they were already married, they were just waiting on the coronation) was insane, and I was shocked that Merrick didn’t put his foot down immediately. The point props to Reyla for handling herself the way she did.
I think the narrators were great, though I wish the female narrator had changed her voice up just a bit to read the male dialogue, just so the reader wasn’t confused at times. Other than that, they did great.
