The drawn out courtship from Summer’s end started to annoy me. That easily could’ve been reduced and made the overall story a bit more succinct. I appreciated that the author included translations within the sentences for the native language since that wasn’t done much in the first one. However, some of the titles and names were a bit much - a glossary would’ve been able to fix that. Overall though a good time was had.

I truly thought this book would never end! This easily could’ve been cut down at least 300 pages. The 400 pages of a drawn out and painfully awkward courtship were absolutely uncalled for. By the time the action finally started with the kidnapping by pirates (that you’re literally waiting for almost the entire first 400 pages) I was just over everything about this story but also still wanted to know the ending. I adored book one so I wanted to adore this one too but in the end it just dragged on way too long for me. Even if she ever write a book for Spring and Autumn I will likely never read those!

4.5 stars. This is like a mix of Moana and aquaman. I personally prefer Wynter ans Kham and I like they were in this book. The book was definitely predictable but I still really wanted to read it and the writing and storytelling sucked me in. This was a bit more HEA than previous but I’m here for it.

Disappointed

Love the Train Soul series, so had high j hopes for this novel. Total disappointment. Names of characters impossible to pronounce as well as family and tribal names. Gave up after second chapter.

Okay, so now that the first book dealt with the hidden abused sister we can get to the one who doesnt think shes pretty, even though she obviously is. She uses her siren song powers to misdirect and befuddle him after her makes a critical Mr Darcy type comment about her being as appealing as cold tea. She is attacked in the city and uses her siren song to turn the attacker into mince meat, alerting all the visiting sea-men that she is a newly awaked siren, which their people have not seen for 2000 years. Anywa, she is kidnapped by their nations enemies, her sisters are fake killed and she goes on to rule the sea kingdom full of women-loving warriors.

Liked this one more than the first because I loved Summer. Who knows when the next book will come out but I’m PUMPED.
