(Thanks to Spencer Hill Press and NetGalley, I received an ebook copy of this book for free to review.)

“It’s amazing how fast something that seems like paradise can turn into a nightmare.”

The synopsis of this book is what really intrigued me. This book started off with a bang and a lot of mystery. It really sucked me in. The world building was tremendous. I can only imagine how hard it is to depict a fantasy world, but Erica did an amazing job. She was so descriptive I felt like I was on the sidelines physically watching the story unfold.
I love when books are narrated from multiple points of view so I was already pretty excited about reading this book. Erica did such an amazing job narrating from multiple points (Mariella and Hudson) that I was blown away. I feel like I got a better sense of each character’s personality. I’m also drawn toward books with time stamps, I feel it really gives you a wonderful sense of when each plot twist was taking place.
Overall I really loved this book and would recommend it to any reader that likes fantasy books.
