4.0

This was such a cute romantasy read. Fiella and Redd's relationship was fun to see develop as they both got to know one another not just in person but also via the letters they had no clue the other was writing. That was a nice touch as it really helped to show their personalities.
The overarching plot about the magical mishaps was fairly low stakes but quite interesting to see what would be the next disaster to occur.
One small drawback for me was it did feel like everything was resolved quite quickly when it came to the end and that the relationship moved forwards fairly quickly as well. I prefer it a tad more detailed and lengthly.
Overall though a really cute read with lots of personable characters. It had me laughing the whole way through and picking just one favourite quote will be difficult.
Favourite Quote - I would have to keep my guard up-a woman like Fiella was bound to rip a man to shreds.
Favourite Character - Redd
