This was a fun one, turning tropes on their heads. I really wish the last quarter of the book had been as well explored as the first half. I was definitely surprised by the twist, which was pleasant since most romances are pretty predictable (not in a bad way; for me, it's part of their allure). The climactic conflict was a tad over dramatic, but Loreli has a big personality, so it's forgiveable.
