Short. Too short. I guess the difficulty of writing a novella is that there is little character development. I've read from many authors that shorts stories are sometimes the hardest because the reader doesn't have the time to connect with any particular character. I found that to be fairly true in this case. While it was a solid novella, and I'm happy that Danika found someone to be in her life again, it all just felt so rushed and really didn't give me time to invest myself into either character or the plot.
