What do you prefer: 
▪️a three novella series with one couple per book (and maybe even dual POV in each), or
▪️a three novella series with three multi-book love stories throughout (switching between three single POVs)?

I definitely prefer the former. But this book was very much the latter. And that was my only problem with it. The elf heroines + orc heroes were hot, this Cambrick Creek universe is fun, and the audiobook was extremely well narrated (without the audiobook, this would probably have been a DNF tbh—that’s how much I enjoyed the narrator).

But:
▪️ I’m bugged I have to wait multiple books for any of these HEAs
▪️ just as I’d settle in to one POV and romance story, it would switch
▪️ my least favourite part—all the jumping around lead to some major holes in the story. We’d have a POV switch and, BAM, we were mid-first-bj-scene with no buildup (with the Charlotte York pearl-clutching one of the group, no less) or, BAM, mid-sexy time with someone who wasn’t the love interest.
▪️ the POVs were very unevenly weighted. One ended with a HFN (that I think gets messed with in the second book… not sure how I feel about that), one had a whole other relationship off-page, and one had almost nothing happen (just her being unsatisfied with her time and a bad friend to the other POV ladies).

Kudos to this author for always taking risks, this time with the story’s structure. But I’m boring and would have preferred it the old fashioned way 🤷🏻‍♀️
