Spells and Sensibility by K.S. Murphy, K.L. Noone
4.0
3.5 stars
Very charming as-is, but I admit there’s a part of me that really wants the slow-burn version where the romance is the secondary plot because oh man is the magic stuff fascinating? Please tell me more? Also the great joy of period fiction is the politeness and manners and slowly growing intimacy, which this just jumps straight over. I’m incredibly intrigued by the authors’ note saying this is to be the first in a trilogy, so I think I’ll have to keep my eyes out.
