This was gifted to me in a book swap, and I tried not to let the cover art sway my opinion. I don’t think it did, this just isn’t that good. Some distracting inconsistencies in the dialog, at least one continuity error, and the male lead is a sociopath who we’re clearly supposed to see as a good guy. No thanks. The story was pretty gripping but a major plot point at the end (
her kiss brings him back from the brink of destruction!
) made me want to throw the book across the room. I only got through this because it was fast and the female lead (and her family) is pretty awesome, though I think she’d be more believable if she was 5-10 years older.

Naprawdę jestem zaskoczona tym, jak bardzo spodobała mi się ta książka. Sam epilog wydał mi się bardzo słaby i szczerze- przy pierwszym podejściu porzuciłam czytanie. Minęło parę miesięcy, miałam przed sobą podróż pociągiem, ochotę na lekkie fantasy, a na czytniku akurat pobrane z Legimi "Płoń dla mnie".
No i wpadłam! Jakie to było dobre! Czyta się ekspresowo! Świetne postaci, głowna bohaterka bezpretensjonalna, intrygująca, postaci poboczne również ciekawie napisane. Chyba nie ma osoby, która przeczytała tę książkę i nie pokochała babci Fridy
