(I received a copy from the author, in exchange for an honest review.) This was an interesting read that i enjoyed.I liked Serena, and felt really sorry for her. Being passed around different men like she's a game of pass the parcel would be horrible. I found the whole ownership of women thing to be sickening. It would be horrendous to know that at any time, someone could claim you and you'd have no say in the matter, and it would be awful to be seen as nothing more than a possession. There was a few points in this where i started to feel slightly bored, as the pacing was quite slow. Thankfully though, those moments didn't last very long. Overall, An interesting read. *I received this book for an honest review from Never Too Old for Y.A. and N.A. books*This book was a very welcome surprise since I wasn't sure what I was getting myself into. I loved the concept (although some scenes were very hard to stomach) and the author did a very good job with building this world. I had no trouble picturing the different scenarios. It was very interesting seeing Serena living in this world, this very male-dominated world, where women are complete property - basically slaves and breeders, where a woman is sold to the highest bidder depending on how much magic is found in her blood (she will make good sons this way). I also enjoyed the irony of her new master, the "savage", who saved her from being raped by her original intended and never raised a hand to her and ultimately freed her. I would recommend this book to everyone. It can easily be compared to situations going on in the world today.

Loved it! Great story. I just finished it, but will review it later.
