First let me tell you something: I have an exam in 2 days. And guess what I did? I stayed up late reading this book, then I woke up and instead of studying I KEPT READING. This book was amazing, I just couldn't put it down and that's a really good sign. I just wanted to see what was going to happen. I regret NOTHING.
“I want a life with you, Alessandra, one without the shadows between us.”
Spoiler I fell in love with Kallias and Alessandra. Oh my god, they make such a good pair! They're made for each other and I love that they overcame their insecurities (mostly Kallias) and they took the chance to be together.
The whole story is so well written, I loved the pace and I just felt like I was part of their world. And that final plot twist about Leandros... oh well. I kinda never liked him for Alessandra, he was a little bit annoying and it was shady that he kept approaching her when he knew that she was promised to the king. Anyway, I liked him that one night when he gave Alessandra the fun she deserved and that punch she also deserved (sorry, but at the beginning I thought her plan was really stupid and the fact that she wanted to kill the king and get the kingdom for herself... nope).
I loved the ending of the book and I'm so happy they stayed together, even if at some point I was pretty sure that she was going to follow her plan and kill him in the end, even if she started to fall in love with him. That would have been really nasty though and I would have been REALLY, REALLY mad. But fortunately that didn't happen.
All in all, this story was so beautiful and magical and this book definitely deserves 5 stars!
