Secrets built this republic; one truth could burn it down.

High Priestess Kerasea Vestal has spent her life hiding the truth—that she’s the last surviving heir of the magical bloodline the republic slaughtered. One wrong step could be fatal. But when a senator is brutally killed and a temple blade is found at the scene, all eyes turn to her.

Praetorian Torren Morvane has made a career of dragging liars into the light, and Kerasea is the one person he’s vowed to ruin. But locked on a mountain with a murderer, scheming senators, and a prophecy of death, he’s forced to work at her side. The closer he gets, the more dangerous the truth—and their attraction—becomes.

With traitors closing in and a nation on the verge of shattering, Kerasea and Torren must risk everything to uncover the real killer … even if it means trusting their sworn enemy.

Why did I think this was a standalone? I’m so bummed now that I have to wait to continue the story. Murder mystery, sloowwww burn, enemy to lovers. Minimal spice. The story line follows the murders and the assumptions of why it’s happening. Great start to the series.

Loved the book just wish they didn’t have the male do female voices when conversations were had under his chapter, same for female. It really pulls you out of the story. Unfortunate because it’s a great story, nice build and the romance scenes were spicy enough

Loved the story

Perhaps I was expecting too much from the author that gave us the Broken Blades trilogy.

It started out feeling like an And Then There Were None murder mystery set in an alternate Roman world of magic and priestesses. It started out with forecasting through animal sacrifice and spoke of powerful illusion magic. It started by teasing Praetorian investigator Torren’s grudge against High Priestess Karasea’s Order.

Then, it devolved into blah, blah politics of the elite, with zero change of scenery because they’re locked in together for the entirety of the book. The MCs don’t use skill or find clues as much as they wander from body to body, letting the politicians tell them what to make of planted evidence, until in the last two hours when magic reveals whodunnit.

Then, without much in the way of justice or plot progression, it left me hanging for a second book promising more doldrums and disappointment. I didn’t really feel the chemistry for the slow burn to two sex scenes. The MCs have yet to talk through their shared past or get to know each other. This was a very okay story that I’m not sure I care enough about to move on.

Underwhelming for mystery, romance, or fantasy

Too much like the Clue game and didn't really make sense. Also, it would've been better if the narration was done in duet.
