challenging dark tense medium-paced

• Loveable characters? No

It's supposed to romance but there is no indication that the main characters will or even should fall in love...

2.0

As much as I started to like the ending of this book I could not reconcile it with the actions from the first 1/2. I feel no sympathy for Laurent, even though I’m sure he’s gonna get some kind of tragic backstory to excuse his actions. Nevertheless, the political intrigue that began at the very end of the novel was interesting, so I may continue the series to see where it goes from here.
