4/5 
 Damn, I liked how original this story was. It was different to a lot of the things I've read recently. Tarver is such a hardcore sweetheart and Lilac is much stronger than I anticipated her to be. I loved the setting and how there were a few times where I totally couldn't see where they were going with the plot. At times, it dragged along a bit much, but overall I did like the pace of the book. 
 Definitely recommend.
