I normally don't buy novellas, but I really love this author. I was happy to find it was longer than I expected (approx. 2800 locations)The story was interesting and I enjoyed the characters. At first Iona seemes a bit boring but further into the book she got a lot more likable and I enjoyed her subtle humor. I adored Cheri's character. Cheri reminds me of Jayne from War of the Fae. Of course, Francois was also great. One of may favorite parts was the "different kind of French" conversation. I also liked Demon Dog :-)The setting was also intriguing. The little French town sounded beautiful and it was a great backdrop for the story. I believe Ms. Casey lives in France and I could see her love for the country in her setting descriptions.I really loved that Iona had a Kindle(I don't leave home without mine!) and the "shout out" to Samantha Young (another great author) made Iona's bookworm characteristic even more realistic.Overall, I don't love this series as much as War of the Fae, but I will definitely read the rest of the series.
