In all, I found this to be a pretty mid-tier romance. Has some good, some bad, but nothing outrageous or risk-takey when it comes to the tried and true romance formulas. ML was the generic boring soft boi with a huge dick and slightly less generic name. FL was the simple doom-thinker who by the end of the book is willing to finally take a risk or two because ~plot progression must happen~.

There's some mention of Gemma's family being magic.
I believe the words were something like: "You were the one who inherited the family's paranormal abilities." from Gemma's sister, Kiersten
And by some mention I mean a literal sentence. Do I care more about that possibility and it's implications than just about everything else that happened in the book? Yes.

I also feel weird having read Kate's bio at the end of the book, stating that she hates owls. What did the owls do, Kate? What have they done to you?
