A happily condensed romance!
The author takes a novel sized story, chops out all of the “between” parts, and delivers a lovely little tale that holds together remarkably well after a tremendous amount of weeding.
Totally enjoyable to read. I do wonder if the author had the bigger story in the back of their head, or did they just see the key points of their story?

Not sure
I did not care for the story.
Even 17 page novelette could be interesting and engaging, but this book for me was lacking any character development or captivating storyline.

Decent, I guess, for its length, but everything happens way too quickly and easily. Not for me.
