Christina Dennison is a new to me author and this story was new to me.

Coming in I was slightly confused as to what was going on since this is book two of a trilogy and I haven’t read the first book. That didn’t distract me from the story and I felt there was a enough information provided I was able to get the main points of the story.

Francesca’s life is truly a world wind. Her life takes her all over the place, though given her status you never know who is watching. I have mixed feelings about Francesca. I liked her but at times I just couldn’t help but role my eyes. Selim, oh Selim, I just couldn’t bring myself to like him. From the start of this book there was something that just bothered me about him and that didn’t change when I finished the story.

The plot of the story was interesting and I feel like it would have definitely helped to read the first book first, but again I felt like the main plot points were explained so you didn’t feel super lost. I am looking forward to see what happens next with these characters though.
