This started very well, I was gripped by the world building and the clear tension between Ximena and Dante.

However I think this book needed more foreshadowing because as it went on I was confused by some characters actions and sudden changes in lifelong beliefs. The ending seemed a bit rushed and I don't think this helped because yes the story skipped a couple of weeks journey back but then suddenly a few characters went against everything they have stood for their entire lives and it all just felt very sudden.

So although I really enjoyed the story, I can only give it 3 stars due to the pacing.

Thank you to Netgalley, the author and publisher for an eARC copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
