the "tension" between Roman and Silvia was lacking. Something I had hope would be rectified in Dark Splendor since this was just a prequel and they hardly spent anytime together but sadly I still felt their chemistry lacking in Dark Splendor. I saw no difference in Roman and his brother Morgan as to understand what made Roman stand out more to Silvia. While this book was intriguing enough, Dark Splendor was such a disappointment. Im not a big fan of keeping big deal secrets from the ones you supposedly love and dont try hard enough to convince them that you are truly a good and honest person. Therefore, I cant recommend either book. I gave this prequel 3 stars because although I thought it was an ok read, I was still interested in seeing how it would end. But Dark Splendor I gave 2 stars because though the potential was there, it was such a frustrating and unsatisfying read.
