About this deal
I must, before I end this, put in those moments with Poppy threatening the life of others.đ Mostly just Casteel and Kieran. What made FBaA iconic is no longer there: It doesnât matter that the first book was smaller in scaleâbigger scale does not automatically equal a better book. And From Blood and Ash did what it did just right, focusing on the iconic dynamic of a secret-warrior Maiden and her shameless flirt of a guard; but AKoFaF did not. With a bigger scale comes a bigger responsibility, and you just canât take the same approach and unceremoniously dump it into a wholly different type of book. JLA did capture the grandness rather well at the very end, and she evidently stole my heart again. And yet. And based on the fact that Iâd shoved the last dagger Iâd gotten my hands on deep into Casteelâs heart, I doubted the wolven-bone blade would be returned anytime soon. The meat knife was a weapon, though. It would have to do. Ah! Y es que, ademĂĄs, Poppy lo mira cuando Ă©l sale de la bañera y es como: OMG, SĂLO TIENE UNA TOALLA QUE ESTĂ COLGANDO MUY ABAJO EN SU CADERA. En serio, adoro que ella siempre estĂ© toda sonrojada con todo lo que hace Casteel. Y es que, en el fondo, ella tiene clarĂsimo que lo quiere y en lugar de aceptar el trato de âpretenderâ ser la prometida y todo eso, deberĂa sencillamente decirle que quiere casarse con Ă©l. Aunque, claro, todo tiene que ser un proceso.

This book going to erotica books kind of places, sure I do appreciate some scenes but the Joining? Euh... i wish i had a knife to stab both the mcs in the heart. repeatedly. for days. and then stab cas some more when he, inevitably, tells me that that turns him on.Speaking of communication, the queen of abusing ellipses and commas has returned! And sheâs better than ever đ

How does she do it?!?! Casteel, Poppy, and Kieran have got to be my favourite characters from all of her books. The banter between them all and just.... everything.đ€§ Even Rhysand Itâs Your Choice But Not Really is better than Casteel. Heâs seriously asking Poppy to marry him after forbidding her from leaving the house? And then he honestly believes heâs giving her a choice? He essentially says sheâll die if she doesnât marry him. He keeps avoiding the question and ignoring her protests and basically forcing her into marriage. Is this a horror novel? That said, some things did amuse me and I did like some scenes so I do recommend reading this book if you enjoyed the first one. And since I seem to be in the minority here, then chances are youâre probably going to be enjoying this much more than I did! Ah, how Iâve missed Poppy Ballfoyer and Mr. Golden Violates Consent. In this book, they revisit some of their favorite skillsâtalking about nothing, insisting the other is lying, and fawning over eyeballs.The teasing glimmer in his eyes was what snapped me out of my dumbfounded silence. I pulled my hand free, hating the knowledge that if he had wanted to stop me from pulling away, he couldâve easily done so.

and look their dynamic is fun but when nothing else happens and thats all we have to sustain the story? not so much. i loved them at the begining, but i cannot stand them now. Yes, there were other characters, but theyâre not important enough to mention, so Iâm just gong to skip over them and pretend that they donât exist because I wasnât paying attention to them anyways.)My hand curled into a fist against the wooden table as I held his stare. âWhy would you think I wouldnât know what marriage is?â What Itâs About: Penellapheis now living with Prince Casteel DaâNeer, the Atlantian Prince known as the Dark One across Solis. He had kidnapped her from the Ascended, and proposed marriage to her. But Poppy, as she is called by her closest friends, feels betrayed and desires freedom above all else, so she turns down Casteelâs proposal. She also fights him on every topic, raising questions about whether he will trade her for his brother. Someone else questions Casteel, but takes it too far, and Casteel rips his heart out. But unrest has grown in Atlantia as they await the return of their Prince. Whispers of war have become stronger, and Poppy is at the very heart of it all. The King wants to use her to send a message. The Descenters want her dead. The wolven are growing more unpredictable. And as her abilities to feel pain and emotion begin to grow and strengthen, the Atlantians start to fear her. Dark secrets are at play, ones steeped in the blood-drenched sins of two kingdoms that would do anything to keep the truth hidden. But when the earth begins to shake, and the skies start to bleed, it may already be too late. What if I just wanted a piece of you? A tiny piece that belonged to me? [...] Tell me what piece of you I can have. It can be any piece of your choosing. Whatever it is, Iâll take it.â His chin grazed my cheek. âIt will be my most prized possession.â
