This book was fine?? I didn’t really connect much with either Kenna or Ledger, and it just seemed like their whole romance was based around Kenna being so pretty that Ledger had no choice but to help her? He’s taking pity on her for most of the book and I’m not sure how that can evolve into a healthy relationship tbh. It was also weird how Grace seemed to do a complete 180 at the end, it seemed kind of ooc after everything else she does in the book, and as a result things got wrapped up far too tidily imo. I did like Ledger’s bond with Diem but those positive points are immediately cancelled out by that poor girl being named Diem :( I didn’t hate reading it but I didn’t enjoy it either.

It took a little longer for me to get through this book. There were great little moments throughout, but I just couldn’t get into Kenna’s character. As much as I hate to say it, her relationship with Ledger was very annoying at times. However, the last few chapters of the book made up for a lot and made me really enjoy the ending; even leaving me wanting at least another chapter, or longer epilogue!
