A review by princessleopard
Magic Touch by Luna Joya
3.0
Preface: I received a free copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review
Explicit content: On-page sex scenes
The blurb kinda hypes up the idea that there's a murderer on the loose and the story is about catching him/her/them, but that's not really the case. The plot to this story is extremely thin, to the point where nothing really happens and nothing is even answered until the last few pages (and even then, it's not resolved, the characters literally just say "oh this is what the plot was" and the story ends). The book hinges entirely on the romance. The romance itself is fine - some fun interplay between the characters, clashing personalities, nothing problematic - but wasn't enough to prop up the rest of the story, imo. There are also a ton of side characters that kinda drift in and out without doing anything of importance (again, because nothing important actually happens).
Overall, this was a pretty bland, forgettable paranormal romance, and left me with no desire to continue the series.
