Adrienne Young has become an auto-read author for me. I’m always blown away by her vivid storytelling. She is able to pull you into whatever world she has created. Her books are always so heartbreaking and mystical. I adored stepping through this door with the June Farrow and watching this story unfold.
I think that the way the plot lines melded together was well done. While the overarching plot was a little predictable, the attention to small details and amazing character arcs made it such a joy to read. The magic was cozy while the plot had me trying to work it all out from the very beginning.
The romance?! It was swoon worthy. The tension and chemistry was everything I wanted from this book. My heart melted for this couple.
Thank you Random House Publishing- Ballantine and NetGalley for and advanced ereader copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
