The ONLY reason this isn’t a 5 star rating is because the narration in third person got confusing here and there throughout the book, otherwise this was an amazing read! Especially for those who want to dip their toes into fantasy but don’t want the commitment of starting an entire series!!

Let me start by saying a massive thank you to [a:Jamie Applegate Hunter|21588967|Jamie Applegate Hunter|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1678148946p2/21588967.jpg] for the chance to review this eARC—because wow, ma’am, you did not have to go this hard, but I’m so glad you did.
Let’s be real—there’s obsessed, and then there’s Roman Covington level obsessed. This man redefines "morally gray" in the most deliciously unhinged way possible, and I for one was eating it up. If intense, stalker-ish love isn’t your thing... well, maybe you should just skip this one. But if you do love a man who would burn the world down and then rebuild it brick by brick for his girl? Welcome to your new obsession.
This wasn’t your average “rejected mates” sob fest either—oh no. It was a spicy little plot twist buffet, and I devoured every bite. Roman and Violet were so cosmically chaotic together that I’m convinced fate just sat back and said, “Y’all need to suffer a little first for the drama.”
Also, can we talk about the side characters? Chef’s kiss. Slayton, Griff, Ares? Yes. I want their stories. I want their drama. I want their deeply repressed feelings and inevitable spicy slow burns. And while we’re at it—Vivian redemption arc WHEN? Give me a messy, angsty novella where she claws her way back into everyone’s good graces. Just my opinion.
This book had me in a chokehold. I blinked and I was on the last page. Do I regret nothing? Absolutely. And that surprise cameo from Rennick and Amelia (and Finn the sweater baby) from [b:Viciously Yours|205404157|Viciously Yours (Fae Kings of Eden, #1)|Jamie Applegate Hunter|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1705307599l/205404157._SY75_.jpg|207315466]? HILARIOUS. I couldn’t stop giggling.
Final verdict: Obsessively Yours is like if fate and chaos had a baby—and I loved every second of it.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
HEA? yes
3rd act break-up? no

After reading Viciously Yours and The Umbra King duology, I have been waiting desperately for this book and was SO lucky to receive it as an ARC.
Oh. My. God. It was worth the wait. I love Jamie's writing, and I whipped through this in less than a day. The story between Roman and Violet was everything I could've wanted, and the throwback to Rennick and Amelia was so good!! I did miss hearing about her green boots and trout necklace

Roman is almost as unhinged as Rennick was in Viciously Yours!
JAH does it again with another silly nonsensical romantasy. Roman meets Violet when they're 12 - both end up secretly hoping the gods will name Violet has his mate. Only for it to be Vivian, Violets twin. No need to worry though, Roman is going to find a way to go against the gods, he's got 12 years to figure it out.
The first half of the book we get Roman and Violet ages 12-24, their friendship growing. The second half, they've turned 25 and Roman needs to marry his mate and take over the kingdom from his mother.
Just like with the first one, there is no over arching fantasy plot or huge world building. This book is for the he-hes and the ha-has. Its a good time as long as you go in not trying to take it too seriously.
