I've first read this book in 2018 and since then I couldn't moved on from this heartbreakingly beautiful story.I've recommended it maybe at least 100 people or maybe over so And one of my loveliest friend currently listening the audiobook, which I've recommend it to her *shocker* and I thought it's time for me to join her in this journey.

---------------------

This book is a must read!!! <3

“When you lose someone you love, it doesn’t end with that event, or with their funeral, or with their name on the tombstone. You lose them again and again, every day, in small moments that catch you off guard.”

WOW this story literally left me speechless... :'(

I highlighted almost every single page (which this an unusual thing for me because I'm not that kind of a reader) and I have a lot of things to say about this amazing, wonderful, phenomenal book but pls don't waste your time with me and go ahead read this book right now! Trust me, it will shook you really bad and I guarantee, you'll never forget this beautiful book. <3

"Some circles never close, some wounds never heal. Love is like that. It leaves you forever open, forever vulnerable."

"The most profound, most memorable moments of life are the ones that make you feel."

"Have you ever sat across from someone, fully clothed, and felt them slowly unbutton your heart?"

"My greatest loss had led to my greatest love. Hearts were broken, and hearts were healed. Lives were lost, and lives were saved."

"Once in Africa, I kissed a king . . ."

“People will love you. People will hate you. And it always has more to do with them, than it does with you.”

"Sometimes we need to be jarred out of our own reality. We base so much of ourselves on other people’s perceptions of us. We live for the compliments, the approval, the applause. But what we really need is a grand, spine-chilling encounter with ourselves to believe we’re freaking magical. And that’s the best kind of believing, because no one can unsay it or take it away from you." ...more "

Hulya’s Quotes

“Dragons were more valuable to the realm than healers,” the teacher went on. “Healers were expendable. And so countless healers were sent to try to save the dragons. So many that their names have been lost to history. Conveniently so. My great-great-grandmother’s name was remembered because my family honored her legacy and her sacrifice. But many were forgotten. Or if they were remembered, it was only as failures in the eyes of the highbloods. Healers, you see, could not save the dragons. The last dragon died out. And so did the riders. Until now.”

“Pulling back, I catch his eyes and they’re dark and hungry and hooded. His attention moves back to my mouth, once again asking the question, “You single, Hal?” I finally give him the long-awaited answer, nodding to tell him yes. “Good.” He takes a slow predatorial step towards me, tone sharp and leaving no room for question. “Because we aren’t fucking friends.” With that declaration, he grips the side of my neck and slams his mouth onto mine.”

“Medra Pendragon is hereby declared the Second Betrothed Consort of Prince Blake Drakharrow,” Lord Drakharrow was decreeing to the crowd. “She is not to be touched. If she is fed upon, there will be slaughter. All in this hall have been warned.”

“Blake Drakharrow was beautiful in a way I didn't want to admit. In a way that made my blood simmer and my mind spin with confusion. How could someone so vile be so compelling?”

“She wore a dark fitted dress of deep red that cut off just above the knee. Black polished boots with a high heel finished her ensemble. There were words embroidered in black thread on the collar of her dress. Sanguine Vinciti. She followed my gaze and touched a finger to the embroidery with a look of pride. “Bound by blood. The motto of House Drakharrow”
― Briar Boleyn, On Wings of Blood
