A lot of people said the same thing I was going to say about the synopsis and cover setting the actual book's expectation too high (I really do love the cover, it's such a refresher from the stiff live action models you'd typically see on a historical romance). I also didn't love any of the characters except maybe jemina and even then it wasnt love, I was just the most fond of her. It's an OK book.

This is a thoroughly enjoyable and interesting book. Well written and interesting, I love the world Vanessa Riley has brought to life - I’m most excited for book 2 and 3!
Bahni Turpin narrated this story beautifully.
