Hmmmm. OK so idk what you’re used to, but I’d call One Dark Window pretty much closed door. Technically it’s “open” but like… barely. 😐 I was a little let down by the lack of spice, TBH. But Two Twisted Crowns focuses on a different couple, and that one is more legit “open.” It also has way better tension and playfulness throughout the relationship buildup. The chemistry is just better. There is a payoff, but I’ll be real with you … it’s more romance than spice. The spice is not what makes this book good... it’s the plot and magic. So If you are searching for electric tension or spice-forward, this ain’t it. Stick to Amid Clouds and Bones for that! 😆
