Okay, this book was weak sauce. I want to say that I was told this was fairy smut, but it’s not; it’s romance with a fantasy element and that’s okay, but sheesh these characters are so unlikable.
Having already read the second in the series, I’m just going to say I’m glad I proceeded with it. Everything is muuuuch better.
