I wanted to like this book. I really wanted to like it because it was a recommendation. Sadly it did not work for me. 
 In the beginning I was confused with all theses names of people and places flying around and when I got the hang of it, I got very bored reading the rest of the story. 
 No sparkles, no passion, not a very attractive story. 
 The only interesting person was the assassin, Doral. Ari and Fleur had no chemistry, I was actually flipping through most of the erotic scenes between these two.
