This is truly an amazing story of love and lost. It dabbles into will and destiny and is overall a heart wrenching tail. I was entranced reading this, I found myself not being able to put this book down. Don’t guess, run and and get this book you won’t be disappointed.

Very lackluster, considering the hype around it. I expected the story to be a little more intense and plot driven but it just felt flat and boring. However if you’re looking for a quick  read you can pick this up.

This book was a very good read, I’ve fallen in love with Katrina. The storyline and the plot were good as well but it could have went a little more in depth for certain aspects but nevertheless still good. My only problem would be the multiple POVS there were times when it became tedious to keep up with, also the starship arc was confusing as well but it didn’t completely tarnish the book. Definitely recommend.
