This novella had great potential.  A park ranger is trying to escape a failed marriage with a native american shaman and reconnects with her former love, a druid.  The ranger and druid go into the mountains, get caught by a freak blizzard, and have to fight off the shaman.  Great characters, great story, but there were problems.The good: The characters of Moira and Tim were well developed and believable.  The role of Ryan as a cheating and jealous ex also seemed realistic.  The setting was well described - I'd love to visit (in the summer).  The magic was great.The bad: Although the character of Ryan was believable, what we saw was one-sided.  Mostly, the problem was that although I believed that the two main characters loved each other,  it was so syrupy that it was hard to read.  And the amount of sex in such a short story got boring.So yes, I got caught up in the novella.  Some may love this well written story with interesting characters.  For me, the fact that I found myself skimming parts of it really detracted from my enjoyment.Disclosure: I received a complimentary copy of this book for the purpose of reviewing it.
