This was an interesting read. It held my attention from the beginning. I don't normally read this type of romance but I enjoyed it. The author has a way of drawing you in even if it's not within your normal genre. She weaves a story together in such a way that draws you into her world. I would definitely recommend this book and others by this author. I would love to read more in this series.

I’m not gonna lie. Part of the reason why I requested this book and was interested in reading about it was because the cover and title reminded me of my favorite superhero ever – Diana, Princess of Themyscira, the one we all know was Wonder Woman. Sure, this is a little bit – a lot bit – different from Wonder Woman’s origin story, and they totally don’t go together at all, but it made enough of an impression on me that I figured that I’d give this one a try.

Which I’m glad I did, because this story was definitely very interesting and I’m curious to see the first two novels to have more of a background story on what I missed. I personally felt like there were some things that I couldn’t fully understand because I didn’t read the previous books beforehand, but I was still able to enjoy the story for the most part, and that’s really what counts for me.

This may seem a little cliche, but honestly I have to say that my favorite character in this one was Diana. Maybe because she reminds me of my original Diana character who is also a warrior, a God, just all around amazing, but this Diana is also worth being respected and being considered a force to be reckoned with. I love that about her so much, and I’m glad that I got to meet her in this series.
