 Viviana's Review:

As a fan of both Laura and this series I was happy to learn we were getting a novella to give us a little more as the series had come to an end.  Laura was also awesome in letting the readers vote on who would be the couple.  Votes were in, and we get to see Nick’s and Becca’s extended happy ending.

Originally, I thought this would be a very short novella of their wedding - catch the readers up a little on what had been going on a few months after the end of the last book.  Nope.  Not Ms. Laura Kaye.  Though a novella we get an entire story filled with more suspense, suspects, and a moment or two of wanting to chat with Laura and say “hey - don’t you think they have been through enough?”

With that said, for a tiny bit there it does feel like a bit much…  This novella is filled with a lot of stuff from the mystery of “who”, to sex scenes which to me… felt again a tad bit too much.  Didn’t need to be fillers as the story was meant as an add on, a bonus one might say!  I found myself skimming a bit.  However, once we got back to the story it flows right back.

Overall a quick read readers will enjoy and feel they got their HEA ending.
