I adored the main characters and their witty banter. I am not certain why I was not more immersed in this. An enjoyable read for sure but without that lovely tingly feeling I get with my very favorite romances where I can't stand to stop reading. I cannot identify a single thing about this I did not enjoy, 100% a worthy read. Still I found myself not really connecting with the speed at which Minerva found her inner power, sexual curiosity, and general confidence and with which Colin was utterly reformed. I high 3 star, closing in on a 4 but for me not quite getting there.
