Disclaimer:  While I received a complimentary copy of this book from the author for an honest review, I enjoyed the book so much I purchased it for my ebookshelf.This lovers-reunited novella, found Maggie Owen accepting a job at the very tattoo shop co-owned by her ex-boyfriend, Evan Jackson.  In a cosmically ironic turn of events, their reunion was the impetus they needed to face their strong feelings for each other and the reasons for their breakup.  There were several naughty, but not overtly explicit, sex scenes, that pulled readers in, as Maggie and Evan's personal barriers were torn down and their mutual desire heated up.  They had to look past their surface attraction, to the deep feelings underneath and both learned to accept the other's gifts, including Maggie's magical connection.Annabel, Maggie's sister and Liam, Evan's business partner and friend, rounded out the cast and there were hints of a possible love match for Liam in future books.  These secondary characters were even funnier and snarkier than the lead characters.  My favorite quote was delivered by Annabel as she described Evan, "Maggie, the man looks like Aphrodite and David Gandy had a love baby. He loves art and building stuff. He likes puppies. He volunteers at a soup kitchen. His favorite movie is Love Actually for heaven's sake." (Marrow, A. D. (2014-03-24). Love and Other Cosmic Nonsense (Entangled Covet) (Kindle Locations 246-247). Entangled Publishing, LLC. Kindle Edition.)  Who wouldn't fall for a tattooed good boy, like that?My only note was that the story was too short.  I know A.D. Marrow planned to continue the series but this reader would have enjoyed some flashbacks to the characters' "meet cute," "first date," or "first sex scene."  The length did not detract from the story - I just wanted more!  However, fans of Entangled books will be pleasantly surprised with at least one cameo from another author's popular MMA fighter series.I look forward to Ms. Marrow's future books and recommendLove and Other Cosmic Nonsense (Entangled Covet)for those days when you need a short, sweet and funny, happily ever after to curl up with on a cold or rainy day.
