Thank you to Netgalley and Terina Adams for an advanced reader copy (ARC) in exchange for my honest review.

I have to admit that when I first started reading this, I groaned because it stated with the main character having sex. I thought it was just going to be filled with smut. I was pleasantly surprised that there was a lot more depth to this and not a lot of sex. Yes, it's definitely a romantasy book, but there's more to it than that.

The characters are interesting, the plot is good, and the pacing is quick, making this book intriguing and a really fast read. I really enjoyed it, and I'm already looking forward to the next one.

I received an advanced reader's copy of The Unbroken Queen by Terina Adams from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This was the first novel by Terina Adams that I had an opportunity to read and I was excited to find an enjoyable new author to follow.

Overall, I quite enjoyed the book and it made for a nice mental break on a cold, rainy day. There was action, adventure, intrigue, and scheming. The characters were well-crafted, the pace of the novel was steady, and the world building was engrossing. Definitely worth reading!

I love when a story starts off with a bang....literally. This is a slow burn enemies to lovers. This book sucks you in from the very first word. It is extremely well written and a fantastic start to a new series. I cant wait for book two.
