About this listen

Once upon a time, a girl found a magical puppy, and her life was never the same again.

Nina Popoca needs help.

So, so much of it.

The only place she can find that help is on a sprawling ranch in Colorado. A place hiding more than a community filled with magical creatures trying to live their lives in safety and in peace. A village that might hold the answers to questions she’s had her entire life.

And if that ranch is owned by her best friend’s hunky cousin?

There are worse things in the world than having to live right by Henri Blackrock.

Quite different from her usual, but still felt very much like MZ. Slooooowest of slow burns and loveable characters! Great narration

Mariana does it again!

Although I usually love Mariana’s stories, I feel this one just dragged. For the length of the book, the climax was a bit of let down.

Good but could be better

I have every book from Mariana Zapata. This one is another treat. The characters, the dialogue, the storyline, the magic… all wonderful.
Great narration, and a totally original setting. The only complaint I have is that I’ll never be able to visit.

Now I need more. (Oh and Duncan? Yes. Love. Love. Love)

An Absolute Delight

Another great story by Mariana Zapata. I am not normally into fantasy but she makes fantasy seem normal. Storylines have humour, romance, courage and lots of wonderful characters.

Fantasy Happiness

Full of love and low stakes urban fantasy
Lots of found family and acceptance
Never bored bit the conflict level both between characters and in story plot could easily have been higher

4.5 - a long loving hug
