My review
This book arrived at exactly the right moment: after weeks of a reading slump, it grabbed me from the first page and didn't let go until the end. Illayana Volkov is the kind of heroine you're deeply grateful for. The chemistry between them burns from the very first encounter. It's a solid, addictive first installment that leaves you wanting more.
