✯Review✯The Pine Forest (The Iridescent Realm #2) by Michelle Dare

Synopsis

One touch, one spark, two lives forever changed.

Pine and Azure. The war between the two kingdoms lasted far too long. Peace was finally established, but the survivors would never forget who fought on the front lines. Oliver Sage had a reputation for being a ruthless knight. He’d seen enough death to last a lifetime and worked on putting the past behind him, although not all would let him forget.

Addison was the only daughter of King and Queen Azure. With three brothers, she knew she’d always be protected, but she also wanted to learn how to take care of herself. She was strong, had a good heart, and wanted to be treated as an equal. Magical abilities ran in her family, and she had one no one knew of.

Oliver had given his heart to one princess, until the night he dreamed of another. Addison was the last woman he should desire, especially given who she was. However, what if she wanted him as well? They’d hated each other their entire lives, but suddenly couldn’t resist the desire which built between them. There were also those who didn’t think they should be together. Forbidden romance could only stay hidden for so long in the dark depths of the Pine Forest.



✯✯5 Sage Stars!!!✯✯

When I finished The Azure Kingdom I couldn't wait to jump into the next book. I was excited to learn it was going to be Oliver and Addison's story.

Oliver Sage was promised Kine Pine's daughter Allison hand in marriage. Even though she wasn't around Oliver had thought of their lives together. Then, she showed up one day and met and fell in love with Lucas Azure. He enemy. After an altercation and change in leadership over the Pine kingdom there was a seize fire fire between the Azure and Pine kingdoms. Against his better judgment and everything he wanted Oliver watched Allison marry Lucas Azure.

Just when Oliver thought things couldn't get worse he saw Addison  the Princess  of the Azure kingdom. When Addison trips and Oliver catches her from falling both of their lives are changed. 

Addison is the princess of the Azure kingdom and has three brothers. She knows no matter who she dates it won't be easy. When the knight Sage stops her from falling something happens. She's hated him and his kingdom for as long as she can remember. But, her dad king Azure and Allison's brother Reid, the new king to Pine kingdom, they're moving forward. 

Both Oliver and Addison never thought the kingdoms could move forward. Until one night they were in each other dream. Addison knew it was possible from her brother. But, this was more. They could interact with each other. Both shocked and pissed off at first. But, then it changed friendly until their feelings grew more. 

As much as Oliver and Addison felt about each other they chose to keep their feelings towards each other a secret. They're not sure how the people of their kingdoms will feel about it. Addison's not sure how her family ESP her brothers will react to it. Oliver knows his king/best friend Reid will be fine with it. But, he'll do whatever Addison wants.

I absolutely loved this book! A little more so then the first book. And, there is only one reason why. It was told in multiple POV! I wanted in Lucas's head. I was ecstatic to see I got Oliver's. 

There was nothing I disliked about this book. Oliver and Addison's was complete opposite of Lucas and Alison's. This was an enemy to lovers relationship. They def had more to prove to each other than anyone else. The way Michelle wrote their story was beautiful.

Oliver is your typical bad ass knight. One who fights to protect his people and king. He also wants to love and be loved in return. 

Addison may be the princess. But, she's never acted like one. She's definitely one of the guys. Addison has a soft side for animals and  loved it. I love how Addison worries about everyone else's feelings over her own. She's a true princess.

I am super excited for Elliot's story and the introduction of a new kingdom. This series is so much fun. Michelle can legit go anywhere and do anything with it. Even though I am looking forward to all these other kingdoms being introduced, I'm hoping Reid gets his told. Between dealing with his father, now a new king and being single. Michelle give that man a HEA. I can't wait for the next book.
