Once Upon A Romance

review 1: I vastly enjoyed the first half of the book, which builds up a sweet romance with a lot of fun banter between the heroine and the hero, and lots and lots of innocently sexy scenes. Didn't think much of the obligatory sex scene in the middle, which was more on the graphic side, but thankfully short and completely unnecessary for the plot, so that it could be skipped without losing anything. Felt that everything slows down considerably in the second half and becomes too much of a typical chosen/magical girl story.Not entirely sure about the world building here, it seems to be a close to but not quite our world fantasy setting where they've got gaslight and feudalistic governments. The book would have needed tighter editing, in my opinion, but then I downloaded it for free so... more I can't really be picky about that.
review 2: (100%)I'm finished with As The Last Petal Falls: I had never read anything by this author before and actually this is the 2nd book in her series, but it reads by itself without having had to read the first. I'm looking forward to the third! A take on the Beauty and the Beast fairy tale, it takes it a giant step forward with some magic, one great steamy scene, and a really good love story. I'm looking forward to the second! less
