   The spice level of a Romantasy book can be subjective. On romance.io, our story is a solid 4-chili-pepper (flame) rating out of 5. They define a 4 rating as "Explicit Open Door." They say that means the story contains at least two or more highly detailed intimate scenes. The author uses explicit, anatomical language, and a wider variety of sexual acts are described. TheFaeShelf.com would give our story a 3 out of 5 for similar criteria.
   The book contains 5 explicit scenes, a few different sexual acts (during lovemaking) are described, but anatomical language is used rarely. Rather than describing body parts, we express the character's joyful thoughts and feelings during their intimate moments. The story is about fated mates that bond because they love each other. The story is high-stakes, high-tension and the explicit open-door intimacy drives the character development.
   The primary purpose of the lovemaking scenes is to show the love shared by the characters. The scenes are loving, caring, tender, tasteful, naughty and fun.
   The sexual intimacy is powered by the story and the characters’ love, affection and trust in each other. Nothing is gratuitous or provided simply for shock value. Nevertheless, the intimacy is pretty hot.
   Readers have described the lovemaking scenes as “breathtaking,” “romantic,” “sensual,” “passionate,” “divine,” “tender,” “luscious,” “poetic,” “enjoyable,” and “enchanting.”
