Another solid romance ruined by a contrived third act conflict. (I speak of the romance plot, not the kidnapping sub-plot. I didn't care for it either, but I don't think it hurt the book in any way.)

Beautifully written fae tale of dedication and compassion.

I really wanted to like this book more. Unfortunately, I think I am in a place where I need more from the character development and quality of the writing. Our male lead felt quite stagnant for most of the book and our female lead was a little generic, personality wise.

I found much of the character development (specifically with the side characters) very frustrating, but I was enjoying the main couple's relationship enough to push through. Unfortunately, the third act conflict really tanked my opinion of this book. It was nonsensical and didn't match the tone of the rest of the book.
