About the author

Kelsie Rae

57 books8,586 followers
Kelsie is a sucker for a love story with all the feels. When she's not chasing words for her next book, you will probably find her reading or, more likely, hanging out with her husband and playing with her three kiddos who love to drive her crazy.

She adores photography, baking, her yorkie, Bob, and her devon rex, Mara. And now that she's actively pursuing her writing dreams, she's set her sights on someday finding the self-discipline to not binge-watch an entire series on Netflix in one sitting.

I wish this was more then a novella. A short story about the arranged marriage bringing together the Russo and Romano families. Stefan loved her from afar and Emilia had no idea. But they don't get much of a say when marriages are mostly arranged. I'd love to hear more of their story

This wasn’t even a novella, it was two chapters, a total of 19 pages. It was cute but there was a lot of potential. It could have been a proper novella or even its own story. It’s hard to take 19 pages seriously when it has meeting, a wedding, sex and exchanging I love you’s. It’s just too fast. I would have liked more of a story from them .

I wish it was longer! I felt like it was a bit rushed, with it only being 2 chapters, and then after they had sex everything felt insanely rushed between the two of them during their convo, and then the story ended. I’d love to read more of their story 🥲

3 stars! Such a cute oneshot, I definitely really liked it. The only reason I’m rating it somewhat low is because I know the potential that was there to make this a full story of its own. When it was mentioned that Stefan was lowkey watching her? It would have been a perfect light stalker romance! I wish we could have gotten to watch Stefan fall for her so that the “I love you’s” at the end didn’t feel so forced!

I wish this one were just a little longer. I think she could have made this one 5 or 6 chapters instead of 2.

It was a super cute short story! I would have LOVED for these two to have a full story though and see how it flourished!

Only 2 chapters long. I feel like this could have been included as a side story in one of the other books.

I wish this had been a bit more than just 2 chapters because in bitter queen we got a glimpse of how long Stefan has wanted this and she had no idea but it was good and to the point.
