There’s really nothing I didn’t love about this book. I want this featured in book boxes, I want to see special editions, I just want all the hype. I can already pictures all the fan art, all the memes, all the merchandise. Seriously, this is a book deserving of a huge fandom. I don’t often put off finishing a book but this one, I just wanted to savour, and I didn’t want it to end. It’s a perfect blend of dark fantasy told in a fresh, funny voice that just made it exactly what I was hoping for and so much more. And as the witches face worsening conditions, he must decide once and for all what’s more important-his people or his freedom.Įverything in this book lined up to make this a perfect reading experience. But as he gets to know Emyr, Wyatt realizes the boy he once loved may still exist. Jaded, Wyatt strikes a deal with the enemy, hoping to escape Asalin forever. In fact, he claims they must marry now or risk losing the throne.

Despite transgender Wyatt’s newfound identity and troubling past, Emyr has no intention of dissolving their engagement. Now a coldly distant Emyr has hunted him down. But when Wyatt lost control of his magic one devastating night, he fled to the human world. Wyatt’s betrothal to his best friend, fae prince Emyr North, was supposed to change that. In Asalin, fae rule and witches like Wyatt Croft…don’t. Wyatt would give anything to forget where he came from-but a kingdom demands its king. This debut YA fantasy will leave you spellbound. To save a fae kingdom, a trans witch must face his traumatic past and the royal fiancé he left behind. It seems to be a bit early in the year to already have multiple favourite books of the year, but this is absolutely one of mine, and I want to tell you all about why!
