The premise is very interesting. But I think it was not executed really well. The romance was so insta lovey. Gen was such a flat character. He was uninteresting and unimpressive. I didnt like Veronica either. She knew how wrong the situation was, especially when a child was involved. Yet she was selfish and let it happen. This story had the potential to be a nice angsty read but failed.

Just not for me. The plot failed to capture my attention. I might try again in a few months.

After reading K. J. Sutton's Fortuna Sworn series, I was expecting a dark, character-driven story, and this book totally delivered. I had no idea it was science fiction before I started, but I loved the gritty near-future Los Angeles setting. The premise kind of reminded me of Altered Carbon, but with a much more relatable protagonist. Some of Veronica's choices were odd, but overall I liked figuring out what was going on along with her. While theoretically I liked the satisfying epilogue, .

in my mind I sort of hated that she ended up still trying to get with a man who cheated on his wife, even if it was justifiedalaskaleigh's review
