review 1: You know me; I love Megan Derr. This one builds on the wick universe. It was nice to see a full-length novel/novella, since the previous was a series of short stories.There was a curse in this one, and you know I love curses. All the angst-fodder...I actually didn't mind the Poor Communication Kills trope, but then again, it's clear where Starwick's coming from and why he would have the issues and reservations he does. Derr's a great author and her books are (generally) right up my alley because fantasy (including fairy tale fantasy) will forever and always be my home genre. review 2: 3,5 starsI dont't think I got into the whole Wick world, much so this one wasn't all that different. They all are finding love pretty fast and both parties are usualy in love with... more each other and just haven't told the other because they assume they were hated. Problems and obsticles are resolved too easy and then there is a happy ending. So mostly I just mixed up all those wicks and wished for a bit more angst and action. less
