I haven't been reading YA very often lately because I don't have time, but when my friends insists that this is a good one I couldn't stop myself from wanting to read it immediately! This book was more than good! It has all the elements I wanted in a story and even more! The way the story developed combined with the mystery was simply perfect!

The reason why I loved it so much is that the romance plays an important role to the story. Shahrzad and Khalid are two very unique and strong characters that captivated me with their personalities! Shahrzad is the perfect heroine, she is feisty and alluring. Perfect for Khalid! And Khalid...this man was mysterious, dark man with his tiger eyes....He owns my heart..He is amazing I love him so much! He automatically goes to the top of my YA book boyfriends!

"You are not mine." 

He dropped his palm from the door. "I am yours."

But apart from the main characters I also loved the secondary characters! Jalal, Despina, Tariq and Rahim. I need to say that at the beginning I have a little problem remembering the names but the story was so good that this didn't stop me from falling in love with it!

The ending made me want for more and left me with an ache, wondering what to expect from the second book! I need the second book!
