4.0

I love Irish mythology, so I was immediately drawn to this story. Bonus points that the cover is absolutely stunning. 

Manhatten 1870s - Rua doesn't know who she is, all she remembers is crawling out from the ground in the woods. When she's mistaken for someone else and finds herself thrust into high society, she begins to remember a different time, a time of magic and gods and guardians and alongside, Finn, an Irish immigrant, she sets out to learn the truth about her past.

I really loved the premise of this and the dual POV. While the pacing felt slower at times and the ending did seem a tad abrupt, I still felt fairly attached to Rua and Finn and I really enjoyed this overall. 

Read this if:
- you love historical romance and Bridgerton vibes
- you enjoy forbidden/star crossed love and enemies to lovers who are just drawn to one another
- Irish mythology
- Dual POV

Many thanks to Kelsie Sheridan Gonzalez, Alcove Press, and Netgalley for an sharing an E-ARC of this book with me.
