5.0

This is a brilliant, inventive romance book about messy, beautiful, complex characters. The premise was original, the imagery is vibrant, and the chemistry is so magnetic that you feel it the whole way through.

After finishing this book, it has continued to live rent-free in my mind since then. I find myself thinking about the story very often. Highly, highly recommend.
