Wow, this book absolutely blew me away! I've been searching for a book like this for a long time.
I love the concept of two people coming together that you would never expect. I love couples, both fictional and non-fictional, that make you think, "How on earth did they end up together?" Ronin and Lara embody that. I love seeing Lara slowly learn to trust Ronin, and how Ronin tries to decipher Lara's mannerisms and behaviors.
The world building is excellent. I prefer being thrown into the story and learning about the world as I go instead of getting a bunch of random info dumps. Thankfully, this book does the former. You can feel the dark and desolate atmosphere that the author crafted.
Lara was such an interesting character. Despite her traumatic past, she learns how to preserve and tries to help those in her community. She's a very strong character, yet vulnerable simultaneously. She juxtaposes so well with Ronin. He's so gentle with her, but you can tell that he adored her from the start.
