Margaret and Riven solved all their problems in A Marriage of Undead Inconvenience, didn't they? Sure they did! They realized their true feelings for each other, they found a method to cope with Riven's vampirism, set Margaret up to do the academic research she loves and found a lost artefact, and even overcame the forces of inheritance law! What more is there to say?
About that.
Their honeymoon is supposed to be calm and quiet, in a remote inn. But they're not the inn's only guests--and having a mainstream human like Margaret on the premises can be disturbing for other supernatural beings who are hoping for peace and acceptance. Margaret and Riven were hoping to have some time to get to know each other better--a traditional honeymoon for an untraditional couple--but instead they're drawn into the problems and puzzles of the people around them--and the remote forest in which they live. The search for Reflection's Heart is on!...with one or two interludes of honeymoon sweetness along the way.
This sequel novella is a sweet, fun adventure with themes of acceptance. It's perfect for days when a little smidge of escapism is just what you need.
