MILD, HEA

“Well-written and interesting plot. It's a bit...dry. She makes and sells jam. Uses some spells. Worries A LOT about people interacting with her. She's brusque unnecessarily and spends so many pages justifying her prickly attitude. You'd think a story about rebellion would be higher octane.” - Cardigan B
