I thought that this book was okay. The one thing that I look forward to when I decide to read a romance novel is a story. It has to be a good story to capture my attention. Some readers are ashamed to say this, but I decided to read this book after seeing a Booktok review on TikTok. Fallon and Cinnamon’s relationship is cute. The fact that he asked for her consent before he did anything was refreshing. He really respects and loves her. I really enjoyed the story itself and the lore behind it. My only complaint is the fact that the story started to drag a little bit towards the end. Other than that the writing is pretty easy to follow. I would describe this novel as medium paced. This book is worth four out of three stars in my opinion.

This book had me cackling and two pages later I had to focus on my breathing (iykyk). So glad I didn’t read this in public because the spice level is 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️. Usually with such good spice, the rest of the story and character development is forgotten about, but not in this book. The story was great, the characters were well written, and I became so invested in even the side characters. Just a really good combination of everything a story needs. I’ve already recommended to all my friends.

i was sold by the gorgeous cover, funny title, and literally the first sentence
“I had only two things on my mind: cheese and how to get home.”
this was a fun book that doesn’t take itself too seriously. the names are camp af. we have:
- Brie, the cheese seller
- Cinnamon Hotpepper - our protagonist and narrator
- Cinnamon’s siblings, Cumin and Chili Hotpepper
the dialogue was a little cringe, but i giggled throughout the entire book. the sex scenes weren’t bad, but they weren’t super hot either? it’s like they had potential but just weren’t quite there.
overall, this was a fun, camp read that serves as a great palate cleanser between heavier, more intense reads. i may decide to read the other books in the series.
also, Cinnamon is so freaking relatable, not wanting to go on an adventure bc it’s safer being at home, craving cheese whenever she gets drunk, attempting to be responsible by not sleeping with the demon she rescued but ultimately giving in because he’s hot, sweet, protective, and actually listens to her? she’s my spirit animal
“My self-preserving habits made me a bit of an outlier with the other girls in town. "Whe wouldn't want to go off on a grand adventure with a bunch of bet heroes also chosen by the goddess?"
Me, bitches. No, thank you.
Biceps were nice, but so was not having my guts eaten by an orc.”

I'm not a big romance reader (I like my books dark), and I probably wouldn't have picked this one up if I wasn't assigned to read it for work. But sometimes, it's an absolute joy to read something that an author had a blast writing.
This read is so fun! Obviously inspired by TTRPG, the little adventuring party that forms around the central characters captured my heart right away and is a great party balance. Lemming's done her homework. I personally didn't find the sex scenes that spicy, but then again, I like my books dark. The non-sex action scenes are quite good. A super cozy, low-stakes adventure that has the potential for bigger world-building.
