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 agentleman 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.

first of all…
that was so much!! definitely not as gorey or action packed as the first installment in this series but we had a good a share of both anyway.
the love potion aspect really made me hesitant though. there truly was no way to tell if she was his mate or if it was his love potion drunk eyes telling him that. he was utterly devoted to her, of course, but he was also manic so i took all his thoughts with a grain of salt.
brie was lovely. her commitment issues really spoke to my heart. its hard to trust someone with your heart after others barely want to deal with your mind. im glad she realized felix wasn’t going to be like that. even without the love potion, i think he would’ve acted much of the same with/about her really. they were good together.
a talking flying sword? SIGN ME UP!!
i also give this 🌶🌶🌶 out of 5. i wish there was a little more smut.
