Full of romance, intrigue, magic, and passion, the first book of The Five Crowns of Okrith--the thrilling TikTok sensation from A.K. Mulford--The High Mountain Court begins the journey of the fugitive red witch Remy as she fights to reclaim her kingdom and discover what's inside her heart. For thirteen years, nineteen-year-old Remy has known she is possibly the last red witch alive, and she is determined to stay that way. But the Northern Court King, who has slaughtered her family and placed a bounty on red witch heads, is intent on destroying her kind once and for all. When four fae warriors enter her tavern refuge, Remy tries to flee, but her magic isn't strong enough to stop the determined--and handsome--Prince Hale of the Eastern Kingdom. He claims he wants to stop a war with the Northern Court before his kingdom succumbs to the same fate as Remy's. In order to do that, he needs a red witch...and Remy may be the only person alive who can help him. Yet even as she's drawn to him, can she really trust Prince Hale? Can her fallen court truly be rescued from the evil clutches of the Northern Court King? Does she even have a choice? For the chance to save herself, her people, and help rid the world of a murderous tyrant, Remy must put her faith in Hale and his companions on a dangerous quest to find lost relics...and discover if she is ready to secure her legacy.

This book was a part of the September book buddy read for Bibliovert Podcast's patreon group, and while I didn't finish it in time for the zoom meeting, I just finished it and it was so good! It was a slow start for me, but once I got into it I was hooked! Slow burn, enemies to lovers, adventure. This book had it all- literally so many tropes! I knocked off a star simply because I felt like the ending wrapped up really quickly. I'm interested to see what happens in the next book for this world though. After what felt like the slowest burn, there was some spice and y'all, the spice was good! I felt like it was a good spice level for the book and it wasn't graphic or explicit but not fade to black which was nice. I'd say this book is adult fantasy 18+ for some language and sexual content.
