At first I was like "oh, a story from a different time period mixed in? with a whole different vibe? choices" but then it was really good and Lily ate up so... yeah. 

I still like Kelsea and her story though, but I found myself waiting for the Lily bits. It's a good book overall and I'm excited to read the third one in the trilogy.
