Ava has one last job to complete: steal some powerful pharmaka - or drugs - from the order of priestesses who control their world. It's supposed to pay for her and her mother's passage to the free lands. But when Ava has an accident with the pharmaka, she gets entangled - literally - with her childhood friend Dom. The pharmaka binds her to him, meaning they cannot be apart without physical pain. Hello, forced proximity romance! Her mother leaves her behind, and Ava finds herself swept into the order of priestesses she was trying to leave behind.
Dom is literally the sweetest. He looks out for Ava at every turn, even before his memories return and he remembers who she is. He's a character to root for, even as he struggles between what he's been taught about their world by the priestesses and the alternate perspective Ava brings.
The author introduces us to a fascinating new world. At times, this reminded me of Brave New World, especially with the sexual freedom and the characters - besides Ava - not knowing what a mother was. At first, this reads as dystopian, post-apocalyptic fiction, but then a twist later in the book took this to a whole new level, and I cannot wait to read the next book in the series to find out more about that!
Thank you to the author for a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.… (plus d'informations)
