As a prequel, I don't know that this book added a whole lot to the main story. Granted, it was super short and consisted of nothing more than a short glimpse into Sadie's life "before", as a human, and a short—very colorful, very unexplained—sex scene.

But what really cemented my low rating, was how rough the writing was. It was full of spelling and punctuation errors, the dialogues were terrible, and the flow was, quite honestly, awful. This novella felt very much like a first, uncorrected draft more than anything.

It could easily have been added as a flashback scene on Sparking Magic, given the book is not that long to begin with. But, at least it was free.
