I find very little interconnectedness between the Magical Romantic Comedy characters. Which meant that I was incredibly excited to revisit the original couple within this series – Bailey and Quinn. Particularly since a lot of their story was a little bit open ended. And yes, this story also has a few unanswered questions at the end. But there’s another Bailey and Quinn story to come!
Although I love Bailey and Quinn as a couple, I also loved that they actually spent most of this storyline apart. It gave them both a chance to continue growing independently of one another. It also allowed for both the ‘Perkys’ to shine as the best friends of the leads. In particular, I loved Perky’s wife and her mad scientist ways. The fact that she spends this entire story out to corrupt Bailey just had me giggling out loud. A great literary best friend, but one that would terrify me in real life…
Finally, finally, Bailey’s heritage is actually revealed in this novel. It was definitely left as a big question mark at the end of the first novel. So, I was over the moon to actually discover the answer to that lingering query. It definitely made me love her even more. And wonder how her powers are going to develop. After all, you get the feeling that she’s just scratched the surface.
Both Bailey and Quinn seem to spend the majority if their time in this rescuing strays. Bailey rescuing animals from dumpsters. Quinn children from tragic circumstances. I also love that Bailey is incredibly gun ho about fighting to have the children. And the animals. And just in general, happy to fight everyone she possibly can.
