"A sexy, mysterious, and above all, surprising romance between a wonderfully fierce heroine and the last person on earth she should ever love. I devoured this book in one day . . . desperate to finish it, but just as desperate for it never to end." --Robin Wasserman, author of The Book of Blood and Shadow "A gripping and intelligent thriller . . . Filled with literary and artistic allusions, the action-packed narrative poses thorny ethical questions as Darcy wrestles with bigotry, identity, belonging, and love." --Publishers Weekly, starred review "The author builds an engaging world, similar to the real Chicago but different enough to tantalize and keep interest high. Entertaining and provocative." --Kirkus Reviews "Containing a fantastic plot, realistic characters and two vivid but fundamentally different worlds, Rutkoski's novel is ultimately about family--what it is and who defines it. You'll stay up late reading, and you can't skip to the end to know what happens: There is too much you would miss." --RT Book Reviews "Just when they thought there was nothing original left in the paranormal romance genre, readers meet Darcy Jones. The fantasy is neatly tied up with the science fiction and an impossible romance, making this an excellent choice for readers of multiple genres." --School Library Journal "An interesting premise." --VOYA "Fans of supernatural romances will be pleased to find one that is both appropriately steamy and well written." --BCCB
