(I received a free copy of this book in exchange for a review).
(This review may contain spoilers).
Having read two of the previous novels set in this world, I did jump at the chance to read a novella that was also set in the world created by this author.
I did remember Garnet from her previous appearance and it was really nice to see the promise that was made to her kept. It was interesting that this book was different to the previous ones, being set more in the world of the fantasy creatures and demons, rather than in the modern world.
I have to say, it was nice to see Bianca and Hunter again, even if they only appeared for a short time. But it was good to meet Aden and others of his kind. I would have liked to see a bit more of some of the other beings, but the main focus of the book was the romance and I found that honestly sweet and believable.
I was a bit confused by the fact that only one of the pixies recognised Garnet. Apart from a brief comment about her parents, there didn’t seem to be any effort on her part to see if her family was still alive or not. I would have liked to see a bit more about that.
It was interesting to see both Dash and Garnet settling into their lives in the village. I really liked Dash’s relationship with his mother and it was really good to see the author didn’t shy away from having them both still affected by what had happened to them and the effects it still had, even after they’d been freed and could live their own lives.
I really liked Garnet’s relationship with Aden and I felt it was really quite emotional when she opened up about her past to him… particularly with the strong sense that she was blaming herself, even though she was a victim. That’s a realistic reaction and I was glad that the author acknowledged those effects at the end of the book.
This remains one of my favourite worlds to ‘visit’ and I would really like to read more about the characters, as well as see more of the different species and races there are. I definitely intend to read the first book in the series at some point in the future… and I also want to read the fourth book when it comes out.
