While I felt that it interrupted the story on occasion, overall, I think it worked quite well and was a unique change. The author chose a very unique style in that Tressa's POV was in 1st person, while Donegan's was in 3rd person. Politano's writing style is very beautiful and poetic, if a little overly detailed at times. I would have preferred a slightly quicker pace with the revelation of certain plot points a little sooner. too mysterious, if such a thing is possible. I love a good mystery, but this one seemed. The storyline and mystery were very intriguing, though I must admit, I was very confused for about 90% of the book, which lessened my enjoyment of it. I think having more of his POV would have helped clear that issue up for me. I think the author made him out to be such a bad guy in Tressa's mind that by the time we the readers discovered the truth about him, I was already adamant in my dislike of him. Donegan Vance was a very intriguing character, but he somehow fell flat to me. I loved Tressa's sweet spirit, artistic mind, and generous heart, and found myself relating to her a lot, especially on the artistic front. Our MCs, Tressa Harlowe and Donegan Vance are both interesting and unique characters. Everything about this book drew me to it - the amazing cover, title, synopsis.
