When Reyna and Kianthe decide to open a book and tea shop together, they settle on Tawney, a border town in north. Missing dragon eggs, feuding local politicians, Kianthe's responsibilities as the leader of the mages, and a queen who isn't ready to let Reyna go from her service all complicate their plan for a simple life.
This book was charming and everything I want from a cozy fantasy romance. It isn't a “meet cute, love at first sight” kind of romance. It's more “We've been dating in secret when our complicated jobs allow us to be together; we're already in love; now let's try living together full time” kind of romance. Reyna and Kianthe come up against the typical “joining our lives together and considering how my choices will impact my partner” issues. With magic. And dragons. And gryphons. And an evil? queen.
The narrator did a great job bringing the story alive and the characters distinct.
Can't wait for the next installment.
