Contains Chapters 26 - 29: This volume concludes the Arc involving Shirayuki's visit to Tanbarun / Kidnapping. This volume also had a few fun chapters after she returns to Clarines including one where the public visits the palace and we are Zen in his formal wear. I look forward to reading the next volume and seeing how things continue for Shirayuki and Zen.

Contains Chapters 22 - 25: This was a really good volume that a lot happened in. We find out who was looking for Shirayuki when they show up and manage to kidnap her leaving Obi knocked out. Then someone else kidnaps her from the kidnappers. Zen and Raj team up and go after her and the volume leaves off in the middle of the rescue mission but after they find Shirayuki. I look forward to reading the next volume.

Contains Chapters 18 - 21: Shirayuki is invited to visit the palace of her original kingdom Tanbarun by Prince Raj and accepts it at Zen's brother Izana's insistence with Zen's request that Obi accompanies her as her escort to protect her if anything goes wrong. Shirayuki's conversation with Raj in the last volume inspired him to try to become a better Prince and we see how he has tried to improve as well as meet his younger brother and sister. Throughout this volume we hear about and see someone who is searching for Shirayuki but don't learn who he is or what he is planning before the volume ends so I hope to learn more in the next volume.

This volume also contains a cute little bonus chapter about Obi and Ryu at the end.

Contains Chapters 13 - 17: This volume picks up where volume 3 left off and concludes that storyline. During this volume Shirayuki and Zen also begin to move forward in their relationship and acknowledge their feelings to one another. This volume also contains flashback to six years ago showing how Zen and Mitsuhide first met and the start of their friendship. The last chapter was about Zen, Shirayuki, Mitsuhide, Kiki, and Obi all going out for a day trip to have some fun. I look forward to reading the next volume.

Contains Chapters 09 - 12: At the beginning of this volume Zen's brother Prince Izana causes Zen and Shirayuki some problems by inviting Prince Raj (Prince of Tanbarun - Shirayuki's original home) to visit them at the palace. Then Zen decides to assign Obi as Shirayuki's unofficial guard in case anyone decides to bother her because of their connection. The last part of this volume is the start of a new storyline involving a girl named Kihal Toghrul who came to the palace requesting the Prince to stop Viscount Brecker from hunting all the birds on her island that her people work with for various reasons including communication and fishing. This volume leaves off on a cliffhanger so I look forward to reading the next volume.

Contains Chapters 05 - 08: This volume starts with Shirayuki starting her position as a court herbalist apprentice and meeting the master herbalist she is going to train with, a 12 year old herbalist prodigy named Ryu. Shirayuki and Zen also end up staying at one of the kingdom's forts were everyone had gotten sick and so Shirayuki is needed to help cure them all. Then after everyone returns Zen's brother returns to the palace so we get to meet him as well and see a bit of the relationship between the two brothers.

This volume also contains a bonus story called "Connect Us" about a teenage boy who had died in a car accident coming back to check on his two best friends and see how they were doing. It was a good story and very well written.

There is also a cute little two bonus pages at the end about Ryu's sleeping habits and them rubbing off onto Shirayuki.

Contains Chapters 01 - 04: This was a really good volume and I am enjoying this story so far and getting to meet all the characters. I especially like Zen and Shirayuki and look forward to reading more about them and seeing how their characters and relationship will grow.

I also really enjoyed the Bonus Story "Colorful Seasons of August" at the end of this volume. It was really cute and I was so happy with how it ended.

Tasseloris (AKA Tass) and Elyssa were a great couple that I enjoyed getting to know in this book & I LOVED Nelly. It was nice getting to see a bit more of Solear and Brace in this story as side characters as well and I look forward to getting to know more members of the Varakartoom as the series continues and seeing who the next book Saved by the Alien Mercenary will be about.

I really enjoyed reading about Sylvie & Thorn in this story and LOVED Thorn's pet Cerberus named Bront (although Sylvie nicknames him Fluffy for a while). Bront's instant bond with Sylvie was cute and Thorn's reaction to it was amusing. I thought this was a fun story and am also adding Mated to the Swamp Monster to my TBR list since I missed it previously and it is about Thorn's nephew Marsh and how him and Rorie got together. I look forward to reading many more books by this author in the future since I have enjoyed every one that I have read so far.

This was my first book by Anastasia Hayward and I thought it was an interesting non magical Retelling of Snow White. This book is a historical romance retelling and I enjoyed getting to know all the characters and their interactions including Sophia's interactions with Dr. Faine Knight's three children. I look forward to getting to read more about Faine's brother Dylan in the next book in this series Thy Golden Stair and getting to read his story.

Chapters 01 - 04: This looks like it is going to be an interesting series and I look forward to seeing what happens in the next volume.

I really enjoyed reading this latest addition to this series and am sad to see it end. This book was about cheer captain Zara (Dragon Shifter) & a fire dancer named Blaze (Dragon Shifter). I enjoyed getting to know Zara better since we saw her throughout the series but never really got to know her. This book did a good job of wrapping up the series and we even find out who the mysterious roommate Craig that is mentioned in earlier books is. I look forward to reading many more books by this author.
