this book belongs because…
orlaith goes somewhere completely different, and then cainon shows up. for a minute it feels like he might be the guy who makes you question rhordyn, but absolutely not. he is horrible. the reveal of who he is and what he is doing was crazy, and honestly that was the most fascinating part of this book for me.
fictional bf
Rhordyn + Orlaith
rhordyn is possessive, mysterious, and somehow always ten steps ahead of everyone else. including you.
meet Rhordyn
To Bleed a Crystal Bloom
To Flame a Wild Flower
