This book is the first in a series and in doing so they end up doing a lot of world building so that is why it’s not a higher score. I think she has some work to do as an author in order to get me to love characters more. I was not as in love with these two men as I really need to be in order for the love story to work out as it was written. But the adventure was good and I enjoyed all of the magic. I think I wish It was just more plot and more time dedicated to falling in love with the characters and the character backstory as opposed to the world building.
