I want to thank Wednesday Books and the author Francesca Flores for providing me with an ecopy via NetGalley in exchange for my honest review. 

I was initially drawn to this book because of the cover and then I read the synopsis and I knew I had to read it. There are witches, vampires and a creepy forest plus magic all of which are things I love especially the vampires. This is a Rapunzel retelling. I'm 100% familiar with the original story so I can't really comment on the similarities of the 2. 

I loved this world. There was great world building and the magic system was explained in a way where it was understandable and the romance was cute. My only issue is that it was a bit repetitive and it made the book drag a little bit for me. And this is a personal preference thing and doesn't really affect my rating of the book but in the end something happens to Kaye that I wish didn't happen. I was hoping it would go another way with her. I think this is a standalone but there is potential for a follow up which I would totally be up for reading.
