The Hurricane Wars
All Talasyn has ever known is the Hurricane Wars. Growing up an orphan in a nation under siege by the ruthless Night Emperor, Talasyn has found her family among the soldiers who fight for freedom. But she is hiding a deadly secret: light magic courses through her veins, a blazing power believed to have been wiped out years ago that can cut through the Night Empire's shadows.
Prince Alaric, the emperor's only son and heir, has been forged into a weapon by his father. Tasked with obliterating any threats to the Night Empire's rule with the strength of his armies and mighty Shadow magic, Alaric has never been bested. That is until he sees Talasyn burning brightly on the battlefield with the magic that killed his grandfather, turned his father into a monster, and ignited the Hurricane Wars. In a clash of light and dark, their powers merge and create a force the likes of which has never been seen.
Talasyn and Alaric both know this war can only end with them. But a greater threat is coming, and the strange new magic they can create together could be the only way to overcome it. Thrust into an uneasy alliance, they will confront the secrets at the heart of the war and find, in each other, a searing passion--one that could save their world...or destroy it.
An exquisite fantasy brimming with unforgettable characters, sizzling enemies-to-lovers romance, and richly drawn worlds, *The Hurricane Wars* marks the breathtaking debut of an extraordinary new writer.

I honestly don’t know what to rate this because I was liking it but then it took me over a month to read the last 40 pages so clearly I wasn’t that invested. I’ll circle back after the next book

3.75⭐ I thoroughly enjoyed the magic system and how memories were able to be accessed within the severs. The world building is rich and brimming with captivating lore that kept me hooked throughout the book. While I sympathized with Talasyn's difficult past, I found her bouts of bratty behavior to be increasingly frustrating. It didn't seem to jive with her character especially since she had to be incredibly resilient to grow up the way she did. Overall, a good read and I will definitely read the next book and hopefully Talasyn redeems herself a bit.
