4.5 stars 
 This turned out to be such a nice surprise! 
 I had low to medium expectations about this book, thinking that it would be a soap opera in space. However, I decided to give it a chance because of so many positive reviews, and I am seriously glad that I picked it up!!! It couldn't be further away from what I thought it would be and I enjoyed every step of this adventure! 
 Following the destruction of the space ship Icarus, the heiress Lilac and war hero Tarver are the only survivors left, who find themselves stranded on a deserted planet. 
 We join them on their quest of survival as they try to figure out away to work together despite their differences and find safety. 
 Their interactions and banter were hilarious and it was so much fun to see these two opinionated individuals stuck together and trying to work things out. I greatly appreciated how slow and organic was the development of their relationship and how real it felt. 
 "You saved my life. Again." 
 "I had to. I wouldn't last a day around here without you." 
 The book was unputdownable and fast paced, some scenes gave me chills and the storyline was completely unpredictable, with twists and turns every time and with a marvelously eerie atmosphere. You could feel the characters' tension and despair, and you cheered for them to find rescue. 
 It is a fast paced sci-fi adventure that made my pulse quicken in fear and anticipation. I read it in one sitting because I just HAD to know what happens next! 
 The ending left me needing and wanting more and I can't wait to read the next book in the trilogy!
