My craving for historical romance read led me to pick up this pretty book from the random trip to the bookstore. The cover caught my attention easily with its magical feel. The next thing that captured my attention was that the female character actually has a board game business!
I'm really glad I picked this book because it has proven to me to be funny, unconventional and totally sweet. The manner in which Pandora and Gabriel met is so unforgettable and well... hilarious and unexpected.
I love Pandora's carefree attitude. She's just too adorable and trusting. It's never dull reading about her. Gabriel, on the other hand, is a sweet and protective family guy who shares a close bond with his family. I love the way the two of them interact with each other.
It was fun reading this book and I don't mind re-reading it again after a while. This book is recommended for those who enjoys a light historical romance read. The fact that this is book 3 of the series doesn't hinder the reading process.
