Summary
Sergeant Major Scratch Keyes of the King’s Guard is having a bad night. First, her king denies her the promotion she rightfully earned, as well as the knighthood that goes along with it. And then, when Scratch is wallowing somewhere near the fetid rock bottom, she and her best friend, the gregarious Sergeant James Ursus, are arrested for orchestrating the abduction of Princess Frances and sentenced to death. On the whole, things could be better.
Luckily, help comes in the form of the mysterious Shae siblings who inform the doomed pair that the issue of the missing Princess is far more complicated than it appears. After a daring escape, the four embark on an ill-advised rescue mission through a forest filled with beasts, bandits, and mysterious fair folk, bringing nothing with them but a kitchen knife and the vague outline of a plan. Their destination is the Between, a sacred and shadowy fae-guarded place that promises to deliver Scratch and James to the princess — if they can survive.
But Scratch didn’t rise above her humble childhood in the Royal City slums by accepting things at face value. It’s clear that the enigmatic Shaes are hiding something, but what do they know? Who are they working with? And why, in the name of all the divine constellations in the scrambled sky, can’t Scratch stop staring at Brella?
Samara Breger’s Walk Between Worlds is a romantic queer fantasy adventure that will make you laugh even as it keeps you on the edge of your seat.

Well written but not what I expected
It's a completely adequate book. It's well written, I like the characters, nice with a lot of LBTQ+ representation, it somehow just didn't click for me. I think it was because I was expecting a fantasy adventure book with a romance sideplot, when in actuality it is a romance novel set in a fantasy world with a vague adventure plot. If I had known this I probably would have liked the book a lot more. I was hoping for nice world building and mischievous fey adventurers, and instead got some vague mission to rescue a princess and "oops we have to go through this magic forest that just happens to have Fey creatures who's only plot purpose is for us to grow closer". Not understanding how the world works makes it really hard to follow and care about the political subplot. Also the lead character somehow being so brilliant that they came up with a strategy that let the army take over a region without the loss of a single soldier just makes it hard to suspend my disbelief, especially since they named it "The Octagon".
Summary: If you're looking for a nice romance novel set in a vague fantasy world you're gonna like it. If you are the kind of person that tries to make the world make sense and want the adventure to be the main focus of the book you're probably going to be disappointed.
