I was really going to put this book down multiple times, but for some reason I stuck with it. Kind of glad I did. I really enjoyed the romance between Reid and Meg. It was quirky, hot and most of all real. Not sure I needed all the mystical lettering stuff, and I am some one who craves and enjoys the mystical. The friendship sub plots gave the book a bit more umpf for me and kept me reading. Overall, this was a slow read for me and I was left wanting a bit more speed.
