Thank you HarperCollins for the eArc of this title.

This was an absolutely perfect sequel (I finished it in a day!), I couldn’t have asked for anything more from this book. The writing was wonderful, Rune and Gideon, if possible were even more amazing than last time and the pacing made it absolutely impossible to put this book down. If you loved the Crimson Moth then you will absolutely adore the Rebel Witch.

give them their 3 kids and a house by the ocean with a nice sunset😭😭😭😭😭

i hv no words to describe this i ate this up so bad. crimson moth was my favourite book this year so reading this was truly an experience 😭❤️ the jealous moments were everything.

extremely good world building and very unique plot too. doesnt hurt that rune was an extremely likeable and well built character and gideon was WHEW. my man. the character development URGH I LOVE.

this book made me love the betrayal trope and enemies to lovers to enemies again like wow so good ate down. they could not catch a break this whole book was insane. although i did absolutely lose my mind when they both kissed someone else but hey!!! its for the plot😭😭

bless kristen ciccarelli for writing the best romantasy books ive read this year. thank you netgalley and harper voyager for an arc in exchange for an honest review🫶

A massively anticipated sequel and it did not disappoint! The story picked back up a short while after the events at the end of book 1 with Rune with Cressida and Gideon hunting her. It was very easy to slip back into the story with characters weaving in a recap of events previously. The writing style in the book is beautiful and so easy to devour. There was a nice pace to the events in the book and the development of the characters had such a nice arc. I love that this is a true enemies to lovers story and the chemistry and romance in it was to die for. Some of my new favourite book quotes have been found here. An extremely easy 5 stars and a perfect duology for those who love fantasy, romance and witches.

Thank you to Netgalley, Kristen Ciccarelli and Harper Collins UK for the opportunity to read this advanced copy

Picking up a couple of months after the events of Crimson Moth, we find Rune unwillingly plotting with Cressida to take back their home with the support of Prince Soren.

Recapped via different characters, cleverly reminding you of the events of the previous book, this is fast paced and action packed and I physically could not stop reading.

This authors writing style is beautiful. It flows so smoothly and envelopes you into her world, her characters and their lives so beautifully. What really excels is how agonisingly perfect Rune and Gideon are as a true enemies to lovers storyline. There is so much hate between them, so much pain and strife, yet they are inexplicably drawn to one another in all the best, and frustrating ways. With, thankfully, absolutely NO miscommunication tropes!!

One of the easiest and fastest 5 star reads I’ve given this year.

I want to thank NetGalley, Harper Collins UK and Kristin Ciccarelli for the opportunity to read this as an ARC. The review is my own opinion and I have given this freely.
