Loved it š
Once again Alice Winters has written another classic fun filled tale full of laugh out loud moments, misadventures with villains and an Ellis who is the sweetest, kindest man with a huge heart leading a careful life. Until Tavish makes a bit of a miscalculation regarding Ellis causing so much upheaval that his once careful life becomes similar to the spin cycle of a washing machine. Tavish also makes Ellis feel like he could do anything thus making him a much stronger person. We also get to see firsthand the softer side of Tavish that Ellis brings out.
These two wonderful men find themselves involved in a very interesting and intriguing plot filled with unexpected twists and turns. A plot that they require assistance with so Leland, Jackson and co are quick to jump on board and embrace the mayhem that ensues. Although it does lead to Leland having to deal with emotions again and also using his supposed communication/telepathic abilities (unique facial expressions) to no avail!
I loved what I term the unusual minor characters called āThe Cakeā, āThe Vaseā and āThe Ancient Fighting Spiritā. And I mustnāt forget āThe Acknowledgmentsā which were the final LOL moment of this highly engaging and entertaining read. Iām smiling and giggling just remembering it all for this review!
