Enchanting the Elf by Elle Sterling

3.5

 I read the 1st book in this series back in July and really enjoyed it so I was excited to the ARC for this one. If you've read the first book, then this book starts off where the group of 10 women are already on the island and it goes from there. In the first 6 chapters we are basically reading the same thing that happened in book one, but we get it from Florence and Adelbert's points of view seeing as how I read the first book not too long ago it felt like I was reading the same thing. I like that there was a recap of what happened in the first book, but I think it needed to be cut down a little. Adelbert is an Elf and a grumpy one at that, but I liked seeing him thaw little by little throughout the book. Florence has some corny jokes throughout the book, but it was kind of cute of funny. We immediately know that Florence is attracted to Adelbert and vice versa but whereas Florence isn't opposed to a relationship Adelbert is for the majority of the book. Did I mention this was a slow burn romance? Well, it is. I wanted them to get together for so long and I loved the moment when it finally happened. The only thing I wish we would have gotten was a little more of Adelbert's pining. There was a scene toward the end where Florence stood up to someone for Adelbert and I was so excited when that happened because I was hoping it would. Overall, another really good installment in this series and I'm looking forward to reading more by this author.
