Due to the absolutely problematic author, I won't be reading or reviewing this book. I was truly excited to read it, but I just can't in good conscience. Thank you to St. Martins for the ARC. ❤️

I absolutely adored this book. It's the perfect sapphic Indiana Jones romance of my dreams! I found both of the main characters so compelling and fun, and their relationship was so angsty and believable in the best way. Highly recommend! I already preordered a copy for my friend for Christmas.

I'm not even sure what to write about this book. I really enjoyed it. However, it has come out that the author lied about being Indigenous and now the book will no longer be published. I got the ARC so I was able to read it. But very disappointed in the author, and I will not be reading any of their future projects.

while the premise was very intriguing, the writing just wasn't for me. I do think a lot of people will enjoy this, but I'm just not one!

For the record, I did like this book! But I feel uncomfortable supporting this author and promoting her books because of what has come out about her claim to be a person with indigenous origins.

For obvious reasons I no longer feel comfortable reading and reviewing this book. I wasn't sure if it was going to be removed from my shelf or not but thought it would be best to go ahead explain why I wouldn't be reviewing it.

With the news regarding thai author’s false claims to indigenous heritage I am refusing to read any media crested by her. Thank you for providing me with this ARC but I will not be giving positive engagement to someone profiting off identities they do not belong to and engage in community with.

As the book has been pulled for publication and the author has been claiming identities for what can only be assumed diversity points, I cannot conscience finishing this.

I will not be reading this book. Especially after what was revealed in the last few weeks about the author's identity.

Unfortunately I won’t be reviewing this book because of the author claiming to have Native American heritage and is not and using it for promotional reasons.

I received an ARC from the publisher but will not review this title because the author lied about being Native American. TAAF claims that Colby Wilkens's Cherokee and Choctaw ancestry cannot be verified. Additionally, the publication has been pulled until further notice.
