Until the Stars Fall by 
There is just something I love about fated mates, especially when it’s with someone you didn’t expect and across species. It’s what really hit about Until the Stars Fall by Vanessa Rasanen. This was the definition of slow burn. Almost too slow for me. I kept waiting for human servant Like to finally turn her gaze away from fae prince Brennan and onto his brother, crown prince Connor. The worldbuilding is a bit weak here. We get bits and pieces of a war from long ago, a witch, and information about a rebellion. All of it feels like set dressing for the romance. So, if you’re going to pick this up, please understand this is a romance first and foremost that happens to have fantasy elements. We get a time jump and while some folks might hate this and want to see what happens with Lieke during her trip, I didn’t. I didn’t care to learn about whatever she was doing because I was reading this simply for the romance. Connor was such a simp, I loved him but I didn’t care for his narrator. And Brennan? Surprisingly grew on me, despite being such a playboy. I’m excited to pick up the next book in this series, and honestly? I think if you just want a romance with fantasy elements as dressing, you’ll enjoy Until the Stars Fall by Vanessa Rasanen. If you want something meatier, you might want to steer clear.
