I have to say... I wasn't expecting much from this book when I first initially started it but by the end I was engrossed and fully decided that I needed the rest of the series.
It first started our along similar lines as A Court of Thorns and Roses but as it progressed it strayed into its own plot line.
Estrella has a hard life but quickly learns that she won't let a man rule her life anymore. I admire this in her as she has the strength to stand up to her abuser first and then later against her brother.
Caelum is stunning. I love Caelum. From the beginning he always showed that he was racy, sassy and protective of her but he was sweet, understanding and fully appreciative of her. Ha ha... I was so naive......
Read it and when you get to the end and the plot twist kicks your ass as well, come talk to me.
