This was about double the length it needed to be, with most of it padded out with everybody's favorite trope: miscommunication. I also was a bit disappointed, because with said length and the world-building, I kept expecting some kind of adventure that we never got. The romance here is a bit more developed than the previous entry and just as sweet. Again, though, as much as they pitch consent and making sure both partners understand the other's needs, the prolonged dancing around the topic of Amelia and Rhuger being mates became more annoying than anything. It also just kind of...ended? So, I have no idea what to expect in the next book. I guess we'll see.
