Loved it - need book four asap! Had just enough spice to compliment the plot which is juicy and well developed. This novella let me know some other characters on a deeper level which I really enjoyed.

A bit of a filler

Just when the plot was ramping up the book ended. I enjoyed the story but was definitely expecting a bit more.

This series started off strong, I really liked the first book. I really like all these characters.  But while reading the second book, I found myself dreading to pick it up, so I switched to mostly audio in order to finish it.  This third book, ugh.  I finished it but I didn't really care in the end, I would have DNF'd this if it had been any longer.  The writing is good, I just felt like the plot line disappeared.  I mean if you are looking for spice, but not a ton of plot, this is the book for you. The second book was actually at it's best when it was the antagonist narrating, but the third one didn't have any of that going for it.  This third one was mostly spice.  If they were not participating, they were just thinking about it.  Also, I had to use mostly audio for this as well, and I am not a big audio person.  This might have tainted it for me as well.  I did buy the 4th book, 'Tales from Tiressia', but I think I am just going to skip it because when I flipped through it I realized it was ALL spice and nothing else.  I think I am done with this series, but I would be open to trying something else from this author.

I mean… I suppose I don’t mind some spice but I found pieces of this story confusing and out of place compared to the first two books in the series. I guess there could be explanations coming in future books, so I’ll wait before I criticize it too hard.
