2.0

While the prose and atmosphere here is what I would expect from Mimi Matthews, this story lacked some of the depth of her later books. It’s a fine book but it’s clear how much she has grown as a storyteller since this one. 

It’s a quick read at only about 200 pages, and a sweet take on the beauty and the beast storyline. I felt a lack of connection with the two main characters, but it’s a wholesome and cute story at the end of the day.
