okay, so...
This was very formulaic, and tropey. It wasn't horrible but, I could see everything coming from a mile away.
I really didn't need the bad guy pov, not that there were many pages of it but still; I didn't need to know what ‘they' were planning nor did it really do anything except offer unnecessary exposition.
The love story between Ian and Sarah was fine, if a bit too convenient. What with her being a sensor and Ian being a fairy she couldn't sense. Ian came off as just a little too perfect, I get that it's a romance but, like give the dude a some faults why don't cha? And I don't count minor jealousy and him ‘having to leave her to save her' for plots sake as character faults.
Also, I don't really understand the point of Sarah being so concerned by, not only her age, but by their age gap (her thinking him to be younger, even though he's a 600 year old fairy), when it literally stopped being an issue for no real reason halfway through the book.
For real, if I have to sit through her agonising over thinking she's ten years older than him than, at least give me a line of him telling her that if anyone is too old for anyone it's him.
Sarah's ex-husband is one mustache twirly son-of-a-bitch, I don't get why he's so contemptuous of her. ‘Cause she left him (nearly 20 years ago, mind you)? Because that sounded like it was mutual; if all he wanted from her was money than why didn't he try harder to stay married? They weren't even married for a year and there wasn't even any mention of him pretending to try to make it work. Also how did Sarah not know he was a dirtbag since she's got all that magic person-sensing power? Like, why would you marry someone that terrible?
Anyway, I could go on but, honestly, I'd just be getting into nit-picks ‘cause if none of the above bothers you than nothing further said would either.
