The story was built so well with so many unexpected reveals and twists. And the romance was so sweet. And the way the characters were built and fleshed out made them seem so real and complex and was just incredibly well done.

A very beauty and the beast retelling. Not bad but not overly inspiring

This is NOT a capital R romance but an atmospheric, folksy tale interwoven with stories of love in all its forms that is destined to tug at your heartstrings in ways both beautiful and brutal. This one slowly and subtly weaves roots through your soul.
