This was honestly pretty good. The beginning was honestly kind of cringey, but as we got into the world and the characters interacted more I started really enjoying this. The character interactions are fun and this is kind of a slow burn so I can’t wait for more of that. The world is actually interesting and I want to know more.

I resisted reading this series for a long time. The thought of ghosts just grossed me out. Idk. I’m glad I finally gave in though! This is a very original RH series that is. It’s hilarious and endearing.

This whole story is written the way I used to write when I was 14. The crazy over-use of phrases like "gaze raked over her" and "suddenly" made me cringe so hard that I just couldn't enjoy it.
The main character is awful and so unlikable. She seems to be totally disconnected and her reactions to situations are so cheesy or just... stupid? When someone is trying to kill someone else she responds by just indignantly repeating "One of you guys should put yourself in life-threatening danger again so I can level up again!" over and over. I had this book recommended to me a lot, and the reviews were so positive, I can't believe it's so bad.
I read it all, and I even read the second one, just for the nostalgia, because the bad writing was so much like mine and my friends when we were teens. It gives off a really strong "Charmed" (the TV show) vibe, just switch the word "siphoning" to "blinking/orbing" and you're there. Please don't waste your money though, I feel like there has to be better written smut out there.

5 unapologetic psychopath Stars!!
This author is new – and I have no idea who she got to read her first book to make the ratings skyrocket but we can all learn something from her. Bow down to Kristy Cunning!
Why have I waited so long to read this book??? Oh yes, because the rest of the series has yet to be published.
I am an instant gratification type of person – and I have found that unless the entire series is already out – I rarely go back and read the rest. Which is actually really sad because I really do want to move forward, but I am far too lazy to A.) Remember book one after time has lapsed or B.) too lazy to reread book one to fully grasp book 2 after a times lapse. There are far too many books on my shelf for me to be rereading books #sorrynotsorry
This book though!!! SQUEEEE. At first I was like what the hell am I reading. But then everything started to click (kinda – we are still left out in the dark here…A LOT) but as far as why the reverse harem. Keyla was hilarious. Seriously. FUNNY. Her inner/outer dialogue and simply her attitude on life is what dreams are made of. Even before she could be heard, she would carry on conversations that made me LOL
I will admit once we got to the whole I-want-five-years-of-seduction thing, I was a little put off. Like really? I was also slightly annoyed at the lack of trust from the brothers – at the same time I felt it was necessary
I devoured this book in one day. That is how good it was. In all honesty it was a short quick read with not too much content – given the fact everything is super-duper secret. But the filler or “fluff” of simple banter between Keyla and the Four Psychos was worth reading in my book.
The cover and the synopsis leave much to the imagination. The synopsis alone leads you to believe it a ménage but it is so much more (and less) than that. It is just something you have to read and judge for yourself.

”As always, I walk from room to room, telling them all good night. They can’t hear it, but I do things like that. It makes me feel a little more normal.”
”Try to bring home a woman, and I’ll make farting noises while wearing a dolphin costume and acting like I’m humping each of you. See how long you can hold an erection then,””
”Lamar, however, is excellent company. We like chilling in companionable silence. Of course, he has no idea we’re chilling at all.”
