Highly recommend if you enjoyed A Princess in Theory by Alyssa Cole. This is like that but better!
I love Dafari! He is complete perfection. However, Ebony really annoyed me at times with the whole "I've done something bad and no one can know, therefore I can't ever let anyone close to me" attitude. Especially because after she told him, Dafari was determined to help her.
I knew there was something shady about Tori but damn that was a hell of a bomb to drop and then 10 pages later she drops the bomb about Jay - which I did NOT see coming!
The second that Dafari was asked to name a successor, I knew Enu couldn't be trusted.
Another thing that annoyed me was Ebony going along with Enu's plan because they way that it happened was just too risky because he could have killed Dafari at any moment. Also Baas is clearly a badass so she should have made a deal with Enu and then told Baas to keep an eye on him. They would have been able to save him sooner. Speaking of Baas I would LOVE if he and Shaya got a spinoff!
