Wow!!! Just wow!

What a stunning debut novel for Allison!  I absolutely loved this book and could not put it down.  You are immersed in a dark, intriguing fantasy romance from the very first page.  The world-building is beyond incredible and really stands out from many other novels of this type.  I couldn't get enough of the badass FMC, and felt like I was right there with her through her trials and adventures.  The magic system is unique and I really hope that it gets expanded on in future books. I felt like a twist was coming at the end of the book and was not disappointed.  Now I'll be waiting on pins and needles for the follow-up to be released!  Allison is now on my must-read list!
