I won this through a Goodreads contest. This is not my normal genre, but it was a really good book. It was really well written romance. I liked all of the characters, they were developed well. The sci-fi part of it was not hard to understand or technical or too futuristic, so it worked for me. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who enjoys the sci-fi romance/new adult genre.
