Nesta Archeron has always been prickly-proud, swift to anger, and slow to forgive. And ever since being forced into the Cauldron and becoming High Fae against her will, she’s struggled to find a place for herself within the strange, deadly world she inhabits. Worse, she can’t seem to move past the horrors of the war with Hybern and all she lost in it.
The one person who ignites her temper more than any other is Cassian, the battle-scarred warrior whose position in Rhysand and Feyre’s Night Court keeps him constantly in Nesta’s orbit. But her temper isn’t the only thing Cassian ignites. The fire between them is undeniable, and only burns hotter as they are forced into close quarters with each other.
Meanwhile, the treacherous human queens who returned to the Continent during the last war have forged a dangerous new alliance, threatening the fragile peace that has settled over the realms. And the key to halting them might very well rely on Cassian and Nesta facing their haunting pasts.
Against the sweeping backdrop of a world seared by war and plagued with uncertainty, Nesta and Cassian battle monsters from within and without as they search for acceptance-and healing-in each other’s arms.

Sisterhood in found family form
In no suprise to anyone, I adored this book from front to back. In complete surprise to me, no-one, not one person on SM spoiled this book and considering the significant cross-series storylines that were key in this, I am shocked and delighted.
In some ways, Nesta and Cassian brought something that Feyre and Rhysand didn’t bring (even though I do love that pairing). Nesta was a prickly as a cactus and that wasn’t an easy fix. Cassian was an overall less problematic male character, more supportive, less alpha and an overall good guy without hidden issues.
Nesta made this story but what enhanced this story was the beautiful found family in Emerie and Gwyn. This threesome and what they strived to achieve and why, was such a fabulous storyline. I wasn’t once bored, I didn’t once skim a line, on full reading engagement.
There’s probably not much I can add to the many reviews of this book out there, only to say that I am fulfilled, I will re-read and Maas can bring me more anyday.
