4.5

For a short book, this packs a punch. Not only is it well thought out, but both Amora and Will are rounded and thoughtful characters who compliment eachother well! Their tension was palpable and I appreciated the slow burn between the two (or as slow as you can be for a book under 300 pages). My one complaint was the resolution and lack thereof (Amoras mom).
