Fidget

Some bunny tell me it isn’t over because I need moar. Oh how I’ve missed this world and now I need to re-read them all because seeing everyone again has me falling in love all over again. I think I’m a bit like Mal because from the very first time he jumped on page, I was hooked and needed everything to do with him and Nico. 

“Do you feel how hard I am right now? I want to make you cry. I want to hear you beg. I want to have to gag you to keep our friends from calling the cops.” Nico worried he might actually pass out. He’d never imagined hearing these words from those pretty, flawless lips. “Hurt you? Baby…I want to destroy you.”

Gah, they destroyed me in the best of ways and I neeeeeed their love in my life. I can’t quite reach Nico’s levels, he’s a master, but picture big, sad eyes and a cute pout. I really, really enjoyed the character growth in this. Watching Nico open his heart, or realize he already had, and seeing him and Mal find their dynamic was a purrfect experience. I’m already rubbing my hands in glee for Ranger and I’m also hoping that perhaps certain people will find their way even deeper into our lives. Either way I know what my next re-read is going to be and I’m already Moonstruck over it.

I think we all need a little P.O.O.F. in our lives. Low to no angst, interesting characters, and a little helping hand from magic. 

“I wanted that. Someone to look at me with devotion, with a fierce possessiveness, with a gentleness that was only for me, and with a depth of love that I could drown in when I gazed into their eyes.”

It sure worked for Amalesh and Tiki, especially with their memorable introduction! I liked how they both fully accept each other as is and the cameos are fantastic. Who knows what fate has in store next, but I’m sure it will be magical.
