Review: Possibly the Best of the Tarot card novellas

This was another in the series of Elder races novellas that were connected loosely by the Tarot Cards and was possibly the best, it was without a doubt the most dedicated to the romance of the couple involved.  The story of Aubrey and Xanthe was incredibly deep considering the length of the story but was a fitting end it seems to the Tarot Card stories from what the author has written on her website and other places.  The thrust of the story is an injured Aubrey (no I won't tell how he got that way) is taken care of by Xanthe during his recovery and romance occurs.  If it were that simple it would be a boring story but you have to read it to get all the nuances and feeling.  Great novella but it felt much shorter than the others but I have not looked to see if that was true. I would like to hope that maybe she will let the cards land someplace else in the future since she left the door open a small bit for that to occur.
