Review:
Myth: 4/5
A cozy paranormal romance if I ever read one! This book was a really quick read for me, like so many of the paranormal small-town stories. A deal is struck, fake date the duke so his grandmother doesn’t have to bear bad news, and she gets to host the Beltane ball at his magnificent estate.
Magic: 4/5
The vampire lore is pretty light in this. The only thing that resembles traditional vampire myth is drinking blood, but it’s very light (none from humans).
The witchy magic and background are much more the focus and lots of fun! I love an animal familiar.
Overall: 4/5
Featuring one of my favorite tropes, fake dating, takes center stage in this vampire/witch romance. It was a light, easy read featuring those small-town vibes, the fancy royal, and plenty of hijinks.
