I devoured this and loved every second. I did the audiobook and Teddy Hamilton never fails us 🤌🏻 Rebecca Yarros has such a talent for a ‘meant to be’ ‘overcome all the odds’ love story! I absolutely loved this

I know this isn’t marketed as a romance book but there is however a romance plot to it and it’s throwing me off. I enjoy the enemies to lovers trope but hate a bully romance and this is currently walking a thin line. I don’t know how I’m supposed to root for them. The power imbalance is really off putting to me and I’m struggling to believe I will come round to like him. He was a dick in the current day and somehow worse in this flashback. I don’t even find myself rooting for her at the moment, I’m finding her character a lot less interesting in part two and so far her relationships with the other characters aren’t fleshed out enough for me to care about them. It just sort of feels like everyone’s using her and she’s letting them. I don’t even really get why she is with the resistance. I’m sticking with it because this book is so highly rated and there are slithers of the romantic moments that I’m craving. But the violence and coercion between the two main characters isn’t doing anything for me at this point 🤷🏻♀️

I was bored for most of the book and ALMOST DNFd it. But the last 5-10% really brought it back for me. I’m a romance girl at my core and I’m not even adverse to a slow burn but I just didn’t feel the underlying romance between them for most of the book. I did like it in the end though. Undecided whether I’ll read book two when it comes out this year, watch this space!

A beautiful, heartbreaking and healing love story. Perfect little palette cleanser between bigger reads. A unique concept and an impossible situation with so much love. This book leaves you with a broken heart and warm fuzzy feeling!
