The heroine of the first book is emotionally weak in a world where strength is most important. She ends up with one of the strongest men in her world, and there is a good deal of no communication about the important things between them. Partly this is because he knows she must make some changes before she can fit into his life. Partly this is because he's the strong silent type and she gives in easily.
I had some issues with how the hero and heroine interact, especially in the second half of the book. He is angry, for understandable reasons, and is not nice to her for some time. She is not very interesting during the second half of the book. Granted she's not the focus, but she just hangs around in a wishy washy manner that didn't want me to spend more time with her. That was surprising as I had come to like her in the first half and had a tearjerk reaction to what happened with her.
The second half focuses more on two males who are angry or pushy. While I wasn't happy with the way Trent behaves towards Aranya, he does end up expressing himself in a deeply emotional and romantic way that somewhat redeems him. The god is likeable except for how he interacts with Fate, where he is focused on domination. Trent is rather dominating as well. And I guess those factors kept me form enjoying the book as much as I might have otherwise.
That being said, it is clear that Aranya's parents' story was very different as her mother is perhaps too strong, and the heroes of the second book seem quite interesting and likeable. So, now I want to go and read those books, as I suspect I will like them better. This book takes place mostly in a world at war (though hidden from humans). This book isn't about the war, though battles do occur. This book is about Trent and Aranya changing, and about changes with the gods.
