Fateful Magic by Rachel Higginson
5.0

4.5 stars -- LOVED IT!!! Holy cow, total swoon over Talbott! I mean, I knew I loved their love, but seeing little snippets from the past of pivotal moments in their relationship....AWESOME. Who knew he was so romantic? And emotional? It was kind of cool (well, not *cool*, but you know) to see Lilly's relationship with Talbott go through similar struggles (at similar times) to Eden and Kiran's relationship. I mean, I guess it's kind of obvious that that would happen, but I just never thought about what was happening with them at the end of Hopeless, you know?

The mix of past and present was perfect. LOVED how protective Talbott was in the now (the blood oath was hilarious). And seeing their struggles weaved carefully through their present solidity felt impactful to me. And of course they couldn't have a HEA without a little bit of crazy -- it is Ms. Higginson afterall. :) But it didn't take away from their love story, but rather highlighted their love for each other.

Yup, just all around goodness for epic fans of the series....
