![]() ![]() Devil in Spring is the third book in the Ravenel series. Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, I can return to the squee. What is the game about? How do you play? Are there similar board games? What makes hers different? Are there dice, or playing cards, or what? THE PUBLIC HAS A RIGHT TO KNOW. I guarantee that if I tried to explain this book to my husband, I would never be successful, because he would keep asking me game questions and I would keep saying, “I don’t know.” Pandora herself would never stand for this. Surely there are romance readers who are also gamers, and, well, gamers are not going to stand for this kind of thing. ![]() And yet, tragically, the game is only slightly explained, and not explained at all until page 271. The entire conflict between Pandora and the hero, Gabriel, is based on her not wanting to marry because she would lose control of her business. ![]() Here’s the issue: The heroine, Pandora, is about to manufacture and sell a board game – the first in what she intends to be a long line of board games. That said, I don’t think it will be everyone’s catnip, because the main character sometimes seems overly young and naïve, even given her character quirks (more on those later).Īdditionally, there is a huge gaping issue that I simply must address AT ONCE. I truly cannot sufficiently express how overjoyed this book made me. Devil in Spring was so delightful that I read it slowly because I had to take frequent squee breaks. ![]()
