This is the third book by Sarah Madison I have reviewed and once again, Ms. Madison did not disappoint me. Raincheck is the touching story of Rodney, a gargoyle who longs for human contact. Enter David Marshall, a man who lives in the building Rodney is perched on. The two meet on the roof of the building one night and begin a friendship that will eventually change both of their lives.The premise of Raincheck seemed intriguing. I had never read a romance where the main character was a stone gargoyle during the day and allowed to take form at night. The novella is told from Rodney's POV and the longing, melancholy and desire Rodney shows for the outside world is profound. Plus the attraction between David and Rodney reminded me of one of my favorite television shows, Beauty and the Beast and added to the fairy tale aspect of the book.Raincheck is one of those books that you wish was longer as the characters, plot and setting are perfect. I highly recommended this story.Dark Divas Reviews
