I had the opportunity to read this story when it was previously published as I Was Here—Before You Came and I loved reading it again after it re-released with the new title. I will say, although the plot did not change there are more details that were added to the characters story line. I truly enjoyed how well Ms. Skiba is able to keep the reader’s interest by telling this story from the hero’s POV along with keeping the details within the era of when this takes place.Ilias is the illegitimate son and only heir of King Decebalus. He has been set on revenge for over a decade, but now the time has come and there is nothing that will stop him from following the course he has set. Not even the beautiful Nerva will get in his way of taking back the lands for his people that were stolen so long ago.Nerva is the niece of the one man Ilias has hated and sworn to destroy since he was a child. She has a secret that she thinks no one else knows about, or so she thought. But when she finds out that Ilias knows and is using her as the biggest part of his revenge she is determined to fight him every step of the way.Now, that they are forced to spend time together does their hatred for one another grow, or does that time cause them to see each other differently?
