This is, what, like, the tenth book this year I have not wanted to review because I liked it too much? I hate that. Plus also I read it almost two months ago so the details of what I wanted to say about it have escaped me. Mostly, I really, really liked it!

I will also add, if you are looking for sexiness, you will find that here as […]

“Ah, Gal. You’ll figure it out eventually.”

I wasn’t a big fan of Gal in the last book, so when I heard this one would be from his POV? Well, I had my reservations. Luckily, while I spent most of the book wanting to smack Gal upside the head, I also very much enjoyed it. This book contains definite spoilers for Bonds of Brass, so be warned! “It never would have worked,” I tell him. “It took me a while to understand it, but . . . I got there.” I got there […]
