This book was such a delight! I laughed, I cried, and I wished it would never end. Alas, all good things must come to an end. Thank goodness this is the first book in a new series!! I'm already craving more!
First off, this book was hilarious. All the crazy things that happened to Lucky and Ransom were gold. And just when I would think, "Surely, things can't get worse," they did. There was also the creative and fun humor of the three fairy godmothers. I so enjoyed getting their POVs every so often. As well, Lucky's best friend had some great comments and thoughts that had me laughing out loud.
But what good is "com" without "rom" in front of it. The romance was so wonderful. At first, I thought Ransom and Lucky were rekindling their feelings for each other too quickly. But as the book progressed, I could see why the author chose to put them back together so swiftly. And, their romantic conflict and troubles were really good and very valid. Sometimes I feel as though the author just sticks some character with an insecurity to ensure they break up with their romantic partner. In this book, however, their conflict had a purpose and truly needed to be gone through so Ransom and Lucky could progress and become the people they needed to be.
Along the same lines, I loved that both Lucky and Ransom had to find themselves, figure out who they were alone, before they could figure out who they were together. They had to fight personal demons and overcome their own battles before they could climb the mountain to be together. It was truly so well plotted and written and had me tearing up at the end.
My only complaint (and it's a small one) is that I wish their had been more descriptions between dialogue. Sometimes, I'd get confused about who was talking, or wouldn't understand what the character was doing, etc. Also, I think it would have helped me to understand some of the character's motives and thoughts a little bit easier and sooner in the book.
Overall, this contemporary, fantasy rom-com is one you do not want to miss! It's incredibly funny, sincere, and a great start to, what is sure to be, a fabulous series. I can't wait to see what the fairy godmothers cook up in the next book!
