A very satisfying sequel. Exchanging some of the major characters from Shadowtides for some of the minor characters in the same book with few changes to the setting and few new characters makes this easy to jump into. The climax and resolution felt less rushed than Shadowtides, and I wish there was more for me to read!

As a novella it fills some side plots from Shadowtide, putting the spotlight on a delightful character. It shows what is to be a member of the Sovereign’s Finest, and that family is what you choose it to be. Besides some unnecesary developments and a handful of rushed scenes, it is a nice and easy read that moves forward the Blue Rose world.
