I’m so glad I started with this book!

So this was my first Rina Kent and I couldn’t be happier. I love Levi and Astrid and their love story was so cute. And while it was a dark romance, it definitely wasn’t terrible and I found it pretty easy to get through. One issue I have with it though is that the plot twist was just tossed in there. Instead of gasping in shock, it was more of a tilted head in confusion. But overall I really liked the book!
