Summary
The Kingdom of Kimmery is broken....
Bryony, Princess of Kimmery, has a secret. She lacks the Hunger, the magical and passionate craving that is responsible for Kimmery's prosperity. Without that power, she will lose the crown and the chance to rule the kingdom she sincerely loves.
The Queen's Line must select Chosen to satiate their Hunger with and Bryony's Choosing ceremony has arrived. On her first night with her newly assembled men — a prince, an ambassador, a stablehand, a sculptor, and a rogue — her own secret, and the secrets of Kimmery, spill out between them.
North of Kimmery's capitol, the people are starving. When her truth is revealed to her iron-hearted grandmother, Bryony invents a plan to buy time. She and her Chosen will go to the desolate Winter palace where she can pretend to explore her Hunger while investigating the kingdom's failings.
Bryony is determined to take Kimmery and its people back into a golden age, and keep her crown. As passions rise with her chosen, so do the obstacles and adversaries they face. Kimmery's prosperity isn't the only thing Bryony misunderstood, and the Hunger is more than what it appears.

Excellent world building
I’m fully convinced that this book hasn’t found the right audience and that’s a shame. In a world with sex magic, the FMC feels broken because she doesn’t feel the desire to start taking random men to bed.
This is very queer coded, the FMC comes off demisexual, although I’m not the right person to comment on that representation. Two of the MMCs are also in a pre-established relationship with each other. This is so rare in a book promoted as reverse harem and I’d love to see it more often.
Narration: I really enjoyed the female narrator. The male narrator was new to me and I did not enjoy him voicing multiple POVs.
