An easy, fast paced read with sharp characters and a satisfying romance. Serpent & Dove was an easy purchase for me. I started with the audiobook from my library, stopped listening about halfway through, and bought the paperback to finish out the story. I also bought the sequel, which I’ll report back on soon. If the various plot points had been better connected throughout the book, this would have been a slam dunk Five Stars!!!! With two thumbs up.

Rating: Three Stars – I have to say, Breathless didn’t quite hold up to the standards set by the previous two books. I still enjoyed it; it’s a fast read and I’m still invested in the overall series. I want to know what happens. But This third book in the series definitely isn’t my favorite of the bunch.

Rating: Four Stars – I don’t know how Ava Cates does it, but she really sucks you in. Despite the fact that Restless has just as many technical problems as the first book in the series, it still manages to make me forget everything else while I read it.

Rating: Five Stars – If you’re into historical romance, then this book is for you. Period. It’s been a long, long time since I’ve found a book that I can’t wait to get back to. Someone to Love was exactly that book. The characterizations for Avery and Anna were deep, well drawn, and produced a romance that was both inevitable and satisfying.

I’m intentionally not leaving a rating this time because I don’t think I’m the right audience for it. I didn’t finish it, but others will probably love it. It turns out I am REALLY not into bully romances. Just, not at all. All the crap that the MC goes through in early chapters at the hands of the other fairies was so upsetting I just… ugh. I don’t read books to feel like that.
