The first half of the book is a forbidden sibling romance story with sea magic sprinkled in. In the second half, the story is about kingdom politics, while also recapping everything told in the first half, which made things drag since you already know what happened. Valraven has the personality of wet cardboard but he does get a little more interesting in the end. I'll probably pick up the next book in the series just to learn more about the mystery that is revealed in the final chapter. Overall 'meh'.
