A review by taramisu
A Certain Magic by Mary Balogh
3.0
The premise: The story of two friends who love the same woman.
Miscellaneous notes: It is quite possible that the story was ruined due to the speed at which I was forced to read this book. I had only a week of free time and wanted to get the book done before my next paper was due. I felt the plot lumbered along and never really got a good head of steam going.
Alice and Piers, as we find out toward the end of the book, have loved each other for years. But, since neither gave any clues as to their respective feelings, Alice ended up marrying Web, Piers' best friend. Web is now dead, leaving Alice and Piers to discover their true feelings.
