The book starts off with Aurora having to marry another Stormling because of her lack of magic, which no one knows of. But I love the full circle it takes us in. This book starts off one way and ends in a completely different direction. Take any expectations you have about this book and throw them out the window.

She might not have magic now, but she can steal it if she’s brave enough. And when a handsome young storm hunter reveals he was born without magic, but possesses it now, Aurora realizes there’s a third option for her future besides ruin or marriage.

It was so much fun revisiting this story and I cannot wait to get the next one. I am so glad I decided to do a reread because I enjoyed it so much more than the first time. When Rae, Amanda, and Alana were trying to determine our next buddy read – it was the perfect choice. So I read Roar a while back but Rage is coming out soon and I knew that I wanted to do a reread soon.
