This was such a fun and sexy read! I really like this series and plan to read any more that the author comes out with. There are some really sexy tropes in here...let's just say we totally take advantage of the fact that the male love interest is a werewolf!

I stopped reading one of my current reads to pick this up because I had the strongest craving for Kimberly Lemming and I NEEDED to read this book.

The craving is satisfied and I was reminded, not that I forgot but still, how much I love this author, their writing style, this world, and these characters. It is SO MUCH FUN. I freaking loved it and I  am absolutely going to pick up the last couple books soon because a new one is coming out soon. 

The best magical, hilarious, sexy, quick, easy read. I bow down to the Queen that is Kimberly.

I was surprisingly disappointed by this one! “That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Demon” was one of my favorite monster romances of last year so I was shocked that this one didn’t do it for me.

The premise was cute but I thought the plot was lacking in a lot of ways.
Like I’m very confused about the talking sword. She comes out of nowhere with no backstory or explanation, then gains the ability to wield herself out of nowhere somehow, saves the day, then just gets treated very flippantly at the end, like “Oh yeah and she’s still around I guess. Still floatin’ around somewhere.”

And I’m sorry, the villain is defeated (although I’m still fuzzy on how the jellyfish monster in the lake is defeated) because Brie grosses it out with descriptions of the omegaverse? That is just… I’m sorry, that’s really bad.

Brie and Felix’s story. Really enjoyed seeing humans and demons learn to cohabitate.

 It was fun to see these characters interact again, but is heavily dependent on the previous knowledge in the first book, with not much else being expanded upon. 

Unfortunately, I didn't end up liking this book as much as the first.  It swings from silly to over-the-top sexual very fast. The plot that this book does have happens suddenly without many questions being asked, and feels quite surface-level. 

Overall the writing style is fun and lighthearted, with cute characters and scenarios. Do not take this book seriously.

Back to Boohail we go! We know our heroines of Boohail love good food and good drinks, so our story rightfully kicks off at the tavern, where Brie is just trying to enjoy herself a drink when a local shmuck can't take no for an answer. When he brings her a drink (that we did not see prepared on page, red flag girl!) and she continues to give this lech a firm and resounding "N.O." and she tried to throw it in his face, he dodges and Brie beans poor, unsuspecting Felix in the back of the head with what turns out to be a love potion. Cue a "you're my mate" imprint compounded by the love potion. And Brie just wanted to go home in peace!

Turns out, ya girl is also a romance reader like the rest of us, with an appreciation for werewolf and other monster romances. Perfect timing, since Boohail just so happens to be awash with monsters from beyond the gates! Felix is adorable, goofy, and just wants to please his new mate. When magic fails to help them find a cure for the potion, and they've just got to let it wear off on it's own, he's willing to help Brie live out any and all of her romance novel fantasies as best he can. What a gentleman good werewolf.

Oh yeah, there's also a weird cult kidnapping local women? And creepy deer skull ghouls kidnapping these women for the cult. And in classic Kimberly Lemming style, our rag-tag adventurers save the day with lots of humor, boat loads of sarcasm, and enough reluctance to make them so, so relatable.
