This book is kinda a mind-fuck. It doesn't do what you expect it to do. When I read the summary, I thought it'd be sort of a crazy Twilight revamp (especially considering the cover). It's nothing like that though.
To not ruin anything, it's just an example of how hard it is to get what you want. Even when it's given to you. Everything has a condition and nothing is free.
It wasn't an easy book to read, that's why it only gets 3 stars. I actually can't even figure out if I liked it or not. It just played so much with the mind. While the writing is clean, the descriptions are drawn out and boring. The conclusion is somewhat flawed. It's brilliant and yet boring..
The characters were in some ways hollow, and in other ways so developed. It's easy to see how they were pitted against each other, and totally dependent on their governess. Whereas if they weren't so blinded, they could have jointly accomplished all they wanted, and more.
