1.5 Stars
As a LONGtime fan of Nicole Jacquelyn, it bums me out to rate this so low, but thems the breaks, folks. I haven't loved the books of this spinoff series nearly as much as the original series (which is usually the case), but this one is probably my least favorite of them all thus far.
I thought Emilia's reasons for disappearing were LAME. And she didn't have had to pay nearly enough penance in my opinion. In fact, "not nearly enough" pretty much exemplifies how I felt about this book in general. Seriously though, this story felt rushed and had none of the angst, chemistry, and/or depth that makes Nicole Jacquelyn one of my all time favorite authors.
Not sure what happened with this one, but it was definitely a huge miss for me.
