Fun and fluffy, nothing special. More romance than I like in my sci-fi, which is the point rather of Bramble, Tor's new romance imprint so perhaps that's on me and I shouldn't complain. Conceptually, I'm in favor of those two genres having a subgenre of thier own but this felt half-assed on both fronts: the world-building is generic, the sex scenes flat. It's not badly written and the pacing and plot are competent enough so its readable, but not memorable in any way. Also the cover is terrible; its monochromatically ugly and it does not reflect any scene in the book.

Thank you to Tor Books who were kind enough to send me this copy for review.
