Title: For the Throne

Series: Wilderwood #2

Author: Hannah Whitten

The First Daughter is for the Throne
The Second Daughter is for the Wolf…

Red and the Wolf have finally contained the threat of the Old Kings but at a steep cost. Red’s beloved sister Neve, the First Daughter is lost in the Shadowlands, an inverted kingdom where the vicious gods of legend have been trapped for centuries and the Old Kings have slowly been gaining control. But Neve has an ally–though it’s one she’d rather never have to speak to again–the rogue king Solmir.

Solmir wants to bring an end to the Shadowlands and he believes helping Neve may be the key to its destruction. But to do that, they will both have to journey across a dangerous landscape in order to find a mysterious Heart Tree, and finally to claim the gods’ dark, twisted powers for themselves.

Back with Red and Neve where their stories intertwine again.

Red is at the Black Keep in the Wilderwood where she is happy with Eammon. Neve finds herself in the Shadowlands with Solmir who wants to get rid of the Kings who are trapped in the unstable Shadowlands.

It did take me a while to remember who was who and what they had done, maybe I should have reread Wolf first? I also found it slow going in some places and definitely liked the second half more than the first….but I found myself very addicted to Neve and Solmir!!!!  Aaaah enemies to lovers hooks me every time!

Now Solmir, he actually didn’t need much redemption from me because I already loved him!

‘He smelled like pine needles and snow, far reaches and open sky.’

The writing was gorgeous, the plot was fabulous, the romance was everything I wanted and a bit more spicier and, after, a slow start, I loved it!
