I’M SCREAMING. I thought I was loving it in the beginning—but sike!!!—the ending got dark and gritty and made me love it. I’ll be honest, the middle had me questioning and slightly bored, but overall great. Gotta read the next book soon!

I got confused between who's who which made it even more confusing--- Rafe=Prince Kaden=Assassin

This book has things I shouldn't like (love triangles), minimal world building, a story that focuses entirely on romance and is predictable. But despite this, I really liked it. Lia made a good protagonist and I just had a great time reading it. This good be because I'm struggling to focus on a lot of books and this is such an easy read that it was perfect for this time.
4/5 stars.
I'd recommend this to people who like light fantasy with a lot of romance. Fans of Poison Study and Touch of Magic by Marie V. Snyder would really like this.
