Evetta and Gemma are both supporting characters who still managed to have their own love story alongside Victoria and her coterie. HOWEVER, as with all of this author's characters, I wanted more. I wanted to know how they got together, what troubles they faced... You know what I mean. And this novella delivered all of that and more.
Evetta really comes into her own in this story. You understand more about the role she chooses with Victoria. As for Gemma, well, I already knew her 'father' was a piece of work but this just compounded it. Luckily for me, I've already read Victoria's story, so I knew what happened.
A brilliant side story to an amazing series. I would definitely recommend you read all of them, just so you don't miss anything. Absolutely fantastic.

Gerrod is the Mastyr Vampire in charge of that part of the realm. He feels a great responsibility to the people in his care and therefore doesn't spend much time smiling or laughing. Abigail sees how much pressure he is under and wants to help. This sets off a chain of events that leads to a decision that Abigail needs to make.
There is a lot of information in this novella but it is easily absorbed and thoroughly enjoyable. This is the start of a series that I can't wait to read more of.

I loved Allie and Aidan in the full-length book, but reading these insights into them and their lives just makes me love them all the more. This is a story, and series, to get your teeth into and I have loved every moment.
I'm afraid that I now have to stalk Melissa A Craven until I find out when the next book is due out! Absolutely, definitely and completely recommended.
* I bought this book from Amazon after being unable to leave Allie and Aidan behind. *

May 5, 2023
Although this is a novella, it covers a fair amount of time so be prepared for a couple of 'time jumps' as you read through. You don't feel like anything of importance is missed out though, and the reading flows.
With a smooth pace, well-written and with no editing or grammatical errors that I found, this is a wonderful addition to The Caelian Cycle, and I can't wait for the next book to come along! Highly recommended.
