I think Irdu might be the sweetest incubus hero I've ever read? He was such a soft cinnamon roll. I really enjoyed that the heroine, Autumn, was really determined and strong-minded (and a little bit dominant in bed).
This whole story was so cute and had a surprising amount of depth. The only thing I didn't quite like was how melancholy the story felt. Both Autumn and Irdu are lonely and miserable until they find comfort in each other, and their romance had such an air of desperation around it. Heather Guerre writes so palpably about loneliness and isolation that you could really feel it in the story and it kind of lowered the tone a little. But that's just a me issue.
Loved the emphasis on consent and the addition of Mesopotamian history and mythology!
