4.5 stars rounded up

This is one that you will find difficult to put down! The story pulled me in from the first page with incredibly fast pacing that didn't let up until the book was finished. I could have read this in a single sitting, it was that engaging. The character development might have taken a back seat, but that didn't detract from the story. Enjoyed it so much that I went back and bought the first book in this series, "To Kill A Unicorn". Would highly recommend!

3.5 stars, I felt this book was not as strong as the first one. While it was still enjoyable and gripping, I did not like the way Sumire was written at all. It's not very realistic and she came off as one dimensional, predictable, and Mary Sue- esque. Ted had a lot more depth to him. Yes the book is far from realistic, especially towards the end, but it became a drag to keep reading the surface level writing regarding Sumire.
