Lukens makes you want to both hug them and punch them at the same time. Lots of pining and both Arek and Matt being totally oblivious about the other one's thoughts and feelings.

While they were soft and fluffy and full of long glances and warm smiles and boys soft for each other, this is a story of pining and obliviousness. This book deviates in style from Lukens' previous ones ( In Deeper Waters and The Rules duology). It is both realistic and sarcastic at many points (such as the princess and the tower).

Right from the start, the dialogue has you cackling, because the group of questers that toppled the evil ruler and freed the kingdom is, well, a group of young people tired from the hardships and with no idea of what to do after they fulfill the prophect. So This Is Ever After (YA romance/rom-com) is an ode to pining, a nod to fantasy tropes, self-sarcastic, hilarious and answering the question of what happens after the hero's journey ends.
