Book Review: Rebel Witch (The Crimson Moth #2) by Kristen Ciccarelli

Rebel Witch by Kristen Ciccarelli
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Oh. My. God.

This book right here...might be my favorite book of all time.

I thought Heartless Hunter was the one everyone liked, and I can see why. The action in this book kept me locked in throughout the book, and the romance? GideonRune, the new loves of my life, I love them so much. The growth and the romance the two had while they dealt with the witch Cressida Roseblood, and also how to save one more witch before they left their home to go somewhere else....

...at least, that was the plan. Instead, it turned into a save for Rune from being killed by Cressida because she's the last Roseblood witch alive, and Cressida needed her to wake up her sisters. Rune and Gideon have to fight against the clock to protect Rune and get her far away from Cressida, while she kills the Good Commander and becomes Queen.

The relationship between Rune and Gideon was very sweet and beautiful. Even though he betrayed Rune at the end of Heartless Hunter, in Rebel Witch he does try to hate her and try not to think about her, but he does, even when he goes to the other country and try to get her to tell him what Cressida is planning. Even though he has a curse placed by Cressida because she wants him to be loyal to her after everything she'd done to him, he still loves Rune.

Rune does too, even though she has to pretend to love a prince just to get an army for Cressida, then turn around and leave, just to go back into Gideon's arms, but not after she works with the Blood Guard as well to try and stop Cressida. When she finds out that she's the last heir of the Roseblood witches, she is forced to go back to Cressida, but not to help her.

Oh no.

She wants to try and destroy her from the inside while trying to save the world--which she does, and also break the curse between Cressida and Gideon--which she does. The ending was perfect, seeing the married and living in the Wintersea House, and this duology just because my favorite duology of all time.
