This book did not leave a good impression with me. After reading the blurb and seeing the largely five star reviews I thought that I would love this story, but alas, it was not the case. It felt too rushed and too fantastical for my liking. The magical element just did not work for me. It felt as though it was an afterthought. I have nothing against fantasy but in this book it just did not work. My overall impression is that the story was kind of haphazardly put together and large pieces of information and development that would have made it a better read were ignored.The hero came across as arrogant and bossier than the self-professed bossy heroine. That said, he was generally likable by the end of the book. I enjoyed the heroine for the most part but she was not really memorable.The writing was good. There were minimal spelling errors, if any,  and the author's extensive vocabulary was refreshing. I'm not put off the author by this one book because of her good writing style.
