A very very short book

I did not realize when purchasing this book how short it was. As a result not much was put into the story. About three scenes and the book was over. It would have been a good book for 2.99 but not for almost $10. My fault for not paying attention.

Wonderfully entertaining!

Just the right fit for a novella for the New Year!
Strong, sweet, and meaningful characters.

it was not for me

I love the narrator and chose this title because of her, but the story was disjointed and hard to get through.

Disappointed

The story seemed a throw away. Her stories are usually filled with more rounded out characters.

Short but sweet ❤️

Adorable. Such a sweet short story to go along with the Spindle cove series. If you enjoyed the other two you will not be disappointed. Narrator was good too.

Favorite

My Favorite of the series! Enjoyed the story and had everyone in it!
Thank you!

There were parts

There were parts where I laughed out loud. It was predictable but sweet. I have become a big fan of Tessa Dare ...grateful for happy endings and grown up fairytales.

It’s a novella, so short and cute, but choppy

I hadn’t noticed that this was a novella. That was fine.
But the story was split about half and half between Nora and Dash’s story, and goings-on in Spindle Cove. I suppose great lovers of the Spindle Cove series and its characters will appreciate seeing beloved characters. Im not familiar with it so I found it mostly distracting and boring. Although I seem to be doing Spindle Cove backwards: the last book “Do you want a scandal?” was the last book of another series, the Castles Ever After series (or Castles something), which intertwined with this series, Spindle Cove. Then this novella.
It’s kind of “meh.” Idea intriguing. But why Dashwood, the main male character left earlier in lifetime to be chartographer, his reappearance is this novella, isn’t really explained and maybe wasn’t meant to be. His excuses for youthful bad behavior didn’t fit the personality we see as a young boy or grown man, so that did t really make a lot of sense either.
The finale was a little abrupt and I although I think I see what author was going for or meant— it could have used a page of explaining or some sprinklings of foreshadowing.

Lord Dashwood

A very fun Novella. You can’t miss with this one. Old characters come back to make you laugh.

Proving him wrong

Nora has moved on from her childhood crush of Lord Dashwood when he embarrassed her and left her. She found herself in writing about how women can find worth in themselves. This was a short hot read that made me laugh with the banter and cry in the end. The narrator was great, feeling the emotion and feeling the heat between them.
