Oh yeah, safe to say I’m obsessed

If you're looking for you next romantasy read, it's this!!

Oralia, a young god living in Aethara, has a death touch. While she's able to bring life to many things, if she uses too much power she also brings destruction. One day, after an argument with her step father, the Golden King Typhon, Oralia escapes through the mist that separates the light from the Under King's territory. Enter Renwick, the Under King.

If you love any Hades and Persephone retelling, you'll definitely love this. While not a direct take on the story, the way the world is developed is lush and beautiful. Oralia is such a headstrong character once she breaks her shell and it's amazing to see how strong she becomes. Her longing for touch and relationships is so heartbreaking - so the found family aspect in this is so well done.

RENWICK. Add him to your shadow daddy list - because he is so so so so gooooood. Listen, I love a man down bad and Renwick definitely is. Even before he realizes that he's in love hes already spouting poetics about her. The relationship between the two really feels like a natural development, they push and pull until they are finally over the edge. Hello the library scene? Deceased.

I cannot WAIT until book two.
