 Awww, little Galen. But no, really -- I loved learning more about his history with Rachel. We know a little bit about her past and admittedly, I was hoping the novella would dive into a bit more (no pun intended), but it's still more Galen's story than Rachel's. I really liked seeing how they first met though and how Rachel really always has been very strong, which ironically was the last name that she assigned to Galen.
