Overall, I liked it. I liked Isteban and Clara, and I liked the premise, and I liked that it was another romance where two older people who have been broken heal and find love.
I think I enjoyed most the continuation of the world and overarching plot from “Paladin’s Grace,” but with a different set of characters. Steven and Grace were mentioned (the former by name, the latter not so much), and perhaps we have been set up for Galen’s story, which will be book #3. But this was Isteban’s story, and we got to see his backstory and character growth.
Plus, I liked Clara’s powers.(Does Isteban call her Clare-bear?)
