I have read previous books by this author and really loved them, I really enjoyed Hooked due to the ability to take an already made, widely known and loved story and make it your own which is what lead me to read this. However, this book had no real connection to The Wizard of Oz apart from some of the characters names, it's a kind of Mafia x FBI Agent love story whereas i was kind of expecting at least a little fantasy. The book was OK which is the reason for 3 stars but not something I would really recommend. I felt the characters were a bit bland, there was no build up in relationship so even as a love story it was fairly disappointing. The ending was a little flat so if you are to read this then I would definitely recommend reading the epilogue you can find online or in the physical book (I read it on the kindle).
