Poor Wickham

I’ve always felt bad for Wickham and who his fated mate ended up being. Funny thing is, I knew they’d end up fated to be together, so I’m really hoping they will figure things out! This novella gave me hope for them!

Uncertainty and open doors!

I really enjoyed this novella. The main characters are so different and yet they complement each other. I love how the author describes the inner struggle, the many thoughts and questions that have no answers. It is easy to empathize with the thoughts and identify with them, because everyone comes to a point where they are no longer sure how to proceed. And then you just have to stick with your feelings.
The narrator could read a little faster, but overall he delves into the different situations and conveys them excellently.

Young Love

I enjoyed this short novella which further explored the fated relationship of Wickham and Herja. I liked that the characters acknowledged their differences and recognized that the future was uncertain, but that life's challenges were better to face together rather than apart. I thought Zane Boyer's narration was good. I was gifted a copy of the audiobook. I chose, without financial gain, to post this review which included my honest opinions regarding this story.

Wonderful

Wickham & Herja seemed to be having a hard time functioning in their relationship as fated mates. He likes her but she’s not so sure she likes him that way. Herja definitely feels anxious & over simulated by her life. Many times in this state finding room for a romantic relationship can be daunting. Wickham & Herja learn a lot about each other & are able to teach lessons to each other. I look forward to seeing more about their relationship friendship or romantic. This is a great character development novella.
