Original review 9/2009: I'm really enjoying catching up with this series. I think the conflict in this book was one of the better of the series so far. I really wasn't sure how they would resolve the main issue between them.
I really liked both Straif and Michella. Their romance was well written and the issues they were dealing with were real and heartbreaking.
I did not like Straif's Fam. Which is unfortunate because I've really enjoyed all the previous ones.

The story of Mitchella, an interior designer, and Straif, the head of a Noble house that's been decimated by a Celtan disease.
Straif is determined to find a cure for the curse that's taken all his family, and rebuild what was lost, starting with the family's house, Blackthorne Residence. He hires Mitchella, and her forster son, Antenn, who has an affinity for architecture, and after a series of events, the two end up moving in Blackthorne Residence.
The attraction between Mitchella and Straif is strong, but Straif wants more than anything to have a family, and Mitchella is baren due to a childhood illness, forcing them to re-evaluate their priorities.
An engaging story in a world I enjoy very much. Next in the series comes [b:Heart Quest|1244289|Heart Quest (Celta's Heartmates, #5)|Robin D. Owens|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1269203479s/1244289.jpg|1233001].

I still like this series, snarky telepathic talking cats, magic and all. I found it hard to put this one down.

A good light read. Brain candy for when you want something fun, a little bit silly, with the predictable happy ending. I could do with a little less emphasis on romantic love as the end-all be-all of life, but as an adoptee I love the exploration of family-by-choice in contrast with family-by-blood.
And the cats, as always, are just fun.
