The premise for this book was intriguing, but something about it fell flat. The prologue had me hooked and then slowly I began to lose interest. I found the characters less and less believable and I wished it would just stick to one POV. I think I'm becoming more difficult to please. It also got a little preachy feeling for me at the end.

The elixir didn't work and yet he beat the beast, which had handed it to him earlier? Ehh, I don't buy the happy ever after. (hide spoiler)]
