I was interested to read a different book from Jen Minkman, as I have already read her 2 books in The Island series. This book was different from her Island series, and the idea of this book seemed like an interesting read, so I decided I would read this book.This book takes place in Austria, and I have to say, that threw me off a bit. Granted all books take place in different parts of the world, but when its in the area you know, its easier to picture. Things are very different here in the US then over seas in Europe, so I had to think a little more to visualize the area. However the people were very easy to understand and relate to. There is only a few girls who have never been in Julia's situation, and they are lucky girls. We've almost all fell for a guy who just used us. This makes Julia very relatable and makes you want to read to find out exactly what happens.After Michael has his accident, the big mystery is what did happen to him, that made him make that 180 degree turn? I can understand Julia's emotions towards him, I can't say for me I'd be so resistant, but she has a great friend who pulls her back own to earth. When Michael starts getting sick, things really start to unfold. There is a big dilemma that happens, I will not spoil it, but Michael starts to show who he truly is.When we find out, it is a bit far out there, but if you are invested in the story and into the fantasy, it is quite romantic. This was a fun ride and I am glad that decided to read this book. If you are looking for a romantic fantasy, this is it!!!Reviewed by Ashley @ Step Into Fiction
