Full Review by Cinbooks336
The combination of a crumbling castle, late-90s Prague, and a romance full of tension immediately pulled me in.
Kara was easy to root for. Her dream of restoring a castle and getting her happily-ever-after quickly turns into one disaster after another, but she never gives up. I loved watching her juggle the pressure of saving the castle while also trying to figure out her complicated feelings.
Sean was probably my favorite part of the book. The tension between him and Kara was so good. He's grumpy, frustrating, and determined to keep his distance, which only made me more invested in seeing his walls come down. Add in Ethan's arrival, and I was fully invested in the romantic chaos.
What really stood out to me was the setting. Prague felt vivid and alive, and the castle added so much charm to the story. There were plenty of funny moments, lots of chemistry, and enough emotional depth to keep me turning the pages.
If you enjoy opposites attract, forced proximity, slow-burning tension, and a love triangle that actually keeps you guessing, this is definitely worth picking up.
