  The story is well crafted and I was quickly drawn into the world of Cassie and Baron. Terrie allows her story time to unfold and this gives the dramatic shift (no spoilers!) greater impact than if she'd rushed things. I love the lyrical language used and how carefully observed the main characters are. There's genuine feeling here and a backstory that will keep the reader engaged right till the end.
