Auren grew so much in this book. She learned to set her boundaries and to say no to people.
The side romance *no spoilers* was a big surprise, and I loved it! I can't wait to read more about them in the next book.
Getting more of Slade's backstory was also a nice surprise. I love that we got so much of his POV in this one.
