🌶️🌶️ There are a couple of sensual scenes. I loved them. They made me blush but are tastefully written. This book included some of the best written spice I've read from a stylistic perspective.

Read the index in the beginning that explains what the Leihani words mean. It helps get you immersed in the world without having to figure out what the words mean - though it is intuitive if you just wanna dive in.

Warning (slight spoiler): you might get a tad frustrated with the MMC in the middle. Hang in there. There's a very good explanation later. It's excellent storytelling.

A Sea of Song and Sirens is a SOLID 5 stars and I will scream that you need to read it from the rooftops.

This is one of the BEST books I've read this year. The writing is high quality, the world building is unique and fascinating, the romance hints at so much more to come.

Ahhhh! I love it.
Go read it. K?
