With so many now awake he can focus on finding the others that are missing. What he doesnโt expect to find is a tiny snow fairy hiding out with them…
I am a unrepentant sci-fi romance lover. The original books in this series literally had my head spinning and my sci-fi hear singing with joy! A whole new world of inhabitants and species to learn and discover and this book does not disappoint! ๐๐๐๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป
I love the fact that we get to know more of the Valos story and meet previous charachters again… their continuing story was one that focused on trust, in oneself in others in the future… a true page turner.
Itโs fantastic seeing how after so much hurt and hardship, how the Valos and humans have worked together to move past the hurts of the past and focus on the future. Accepting of others differences despite the similarities between the humans and the creators.
Despite her concerns, I found Kira to be a wonderful female lead.. with her fears and jealousy ( over Duke ) she was a realistic breath of fresh air when most female leads are written to perfection with no foibles. I loved her inner comments and thoughts about Lydia when duke was explaining his history!! ๐๐๐
Duke is now in Bubbles Book Boyfriend Harem…as if he had a chance to escape my notice with his wonderful caring and protective nature!! ๐๐
