4.5 starsfollowing on from The Fire King' s Daughter, we rejoin Heidi and Isaiah as they search for her father and her people. Heidi will do anything to save, even marry a nasty Water King. Isaiah has other ideas.it takes Isaiah while, but finally he admits to himself how much he cares about Heidi. Heidi also figures her feelings out.we deal with betrayal, kidnapping, murder, and deep dark secrets long lost in the ravages of time.you do need to read The Fire King's Daughter to get the full effect of this world, as there is less world building here, although some is explained what happened in that book, not all and you need it.this one didn't quite grab me as much as the first book, I will be honest, but I can't quite put my finger on WHY it didn't. the characters haven't changed, much, they have grown, but not changed. It's frustrating!! I still loved it, just not quite as much as the first!I am upgrading this to new adult, from young adult. It's getting steamier, But for the love of Gaia, let Heidi and Isaiah have their moment, without interruption!!!
