The adult/minor relationship is between a 17 year old human and an immortal fae, though there's no real maturity difference between them. The death of parents happens off page, mentioned a few times.thatbookbitch's review against another edition

I loved the characters and the world Margaret Rogerson built in this book and would've only loved this story more if there were more books set in the world described. Margaret's prose was cozy and a bit whimsical, like snuggling into a perfectly worn-in sweater. This story was exactly the palate refresher I needed after a little reading slump.
I adored Rook and Isobel and I am glad I started my first experience with Margaret Rogerson's work by reading her debut. I have had Sorcery of Thorns and Vespertine sitting on my shelf and now I know I will likely love them as well.

Unfortunately, this book suffers from insta-love and the "she's not like other girls" trope. Also the age gap is a tad creepy, but at least the male love interest isn't as creepy as a certain sparkly vampire. And the MC has an actual personality.
