It was a really nice addition to the other books in the series, I found this one less funny than the others, but very easy to read. The characters were different enough that felt fresh and the cultural differences between the two of them made it enjoyable and funny.

This book was cute like the others in the series, but pacing was an issue. For example, the female romantic lead in this, Cherry, was assumed dead in previous books. There was a plausible reason why she didn't put together that her sudden husband knew her sister for much of the book, but I feel like after she revealed she lived in Boohail it would've been reasonable to go back right away??

Another fun romp to Boohail, this time to find out what happened to Cinnamon's missing little sister Cherry!! I have to admit, I wasn't expecting to resolve that tragedy in this series. Poor Dante just wants to escape the lovesick fools parading all around Boohail, so he sets out to find his fated mate in the big wide world. But first, a pit stop at an old family friend's island all but slaps him in the face with his mate, quite unexpectedly. Cherry, meanwhile, has been stuck on this damned island for 5 YEARS and wants nothing more than to never the stoic blue dragon she's been trapped by ever again and is wiling to do just about anything to escape.
So much of their shenanigans together could have been solved with much better communication, but given their both lack of knowledge--Dante's being a lack of how to woo a human or general knowledge of human women, and Cherry's being literally any current events happening in the world at large because she's been trapped on an island for the last 5 years--it was comical, if not a bit frustrating at times. I loved the cameo from Alexis the sword, even getting her own POV chapter! As always with the Mead Mishaps series, there's some larger nefarious plot to overthrow, and it's never quite what you expect until you stumble upon in. The secret underground monster kidnapping and forced gladiatorial matches (under a magical influence) were totally not what I was expecting from this one, but also right in line with the magical incel cult from book two and the goddess-who-was-actually-a-litch from book one.
