I've put off reading this one for awhile because of the whole Magdalena situation, but this fits the prompt for the space I'm on for Snakes & Ladders, so I decided to suck it up and get on with it. That way I can move on in the series, too.

Reading about Eve and Roarke's discomfort over being Mavis' birthing coaches was the high point of the book. Especially seeing the normally unflappable Roarke well and truly...flapped. ;) There were also a couple of nice, subtle moments between Eve and Summerset that just proves they don't hate each other nearly as much as they act like they do.

And, I'll be damned if I didn't tear up there at the end.

Didn't quite get this one finished tonight as I'd hoped, but with just a hair under 120 pages left, I'll finish it tomorrow with no problems.
