Pure and raw emotions about grief and loss (0 more)
Bundle of pain and sadness
Finished this little bundle of sadness and pain today. If you have recently lost someone, whether it be through death or otherwise, please give this book a read. Coming from an author of older age, I was not expecting it to be this raw and emotional, and yet here I am- sitting in a daze rethinking my entire life. Do not let the title fool you like it fooled my therapy book club group- ‘magical’ in this case is not meant to denote happiness.
  
This was totally amazing. I love a good demon series and this series has sooo much more then just demons. It has witches, demonesses, and so much more. I loved loved loved the tiny demoness. I loved the demon's mate. I do think that they are all idiots at times. The demons need to tell their mates who they are to them and stop trying to make it "easier" lol. They always make it worse. I was soo sad for Val, she is amazing and so strong but she went through so much pain to get strong. Jake is a favorite demon for me.. The pain.. the love.. how strong he is and how much he cares and how much pain he had to go through to become who he needed to be. I love them together with his niece. Amazing story and I'm so glad that I have been introduced to the writing of JL Sheppard. She is amazing!

Oh my gosh. The feels. I don't have words, but I'll never forget Cody's journey or the pain she experienced. If you've ever contemplated suicide, this is a real, harsh look into the hurt you will leave behind. My favorite book by Gayle so far.
  
A really nice collection of stories filled with a bit of everything. There is romance, love, passion and lust as well as heartache, pain, misery and loss. This book isn't full of just erotica (although there is some) it's full of real stories written by real people.

I'd give this a 3.5 if I could. Of the two stories, I was far more interested in what was found in the margins than the mysterious guy with amnesia and his ship. The props were kind of a pain and didn't always add to the experience.
