3.0

Although this is part of the Beacon Hill Sorcerer world, this novella largely focuses on two new characters outside of Boston. This is a short novella as well with insta-lust and not all that much time to really connect to the characters, which, I will admit, I didn't. The best part of this novella is near the end, when we get to spend time with two characters from the main series. It's fun to see them from a complete stranger's perspective. This was a fun read and nice to tide you over until you read the next book, although I personally feel it's likely you don't absolutely need to read this one in order to enjoy the next book in the series. Consider this more as 5.5 rather than book 6.
