Fast paced and loveable characters! The storyline is detailed and holds your attention. All the characters are in their mid to late twenties and have been through some things which makes the characters more relatable and enjoyable when reading NA.

Even though we have trigger warnings I’d still call this a cozy read 😅 I say that because the world building is not in-depth and can easily be followed, the characters were easy to understand, the dialogue, espionage and romance is all on the surface and not hard to connect. I also loved the banter and donkeys 😆.

Recommend this to those that need a great read after a book hangover.

Thank you NetGalley and Brittany Gossin for giving me an ARC of your book Unbound! This review is my own honest opinion.

This was a great first book in the series, with so many wonderful fantasy elements that readers love! There is a princess that gets betrothed against her will that is a badass in her own right, dragonshifters, blood witches, magic and betrayal, and a group of thieves. There are twists and turns, forbidden love, humor, secret identities, adventure and action.

The main characters are well written and the reader is able to see the story unfold from each different perspective. You will celebrate their successes, feel their fears and hatred, and feel the warm and fuzzies as they fall in love. The story is paced quickly and kept me drawn in with every page turned. Gossin is a great world builder describing each scene wonderfully so I felt like I was walking through a quaint small town or soaring in the sky on a steampunk ship.

I can’t wait to see where this series heads next!

Unbound was a fun, fast-paced and action packed read that I just could not put down.

There is SO much about this book to love. As always, I was nervous when I saw this book was multiple POVs but Brittany Gossin made sure every 👏 single 👏 character 👏 was intriguing and never fell flat.

Ava and Keagan were the perfect companions for each other, and I love how their mission intertwined with the syndicate. This was an absolute riot and I already can’t wait for the next book!

Thank you for approving me for this ARC! Based on the blurb, I was very excited to read this. However, once I opened the book there were trigger warnings listed at the beginning. I would not have requested this had I known one of the trigger warnings was “explicit on page SA”. Due to this, I won’t be reading this book.
