Loved the start, Mariel was a delight and the banter was fun. The about halfway through

they have sex and all the romantic tension disappears

and it got progressively less interesting and harder to suspend my disbelief. The whole book takes place over a few days, but the characters experience massive changes, I wish more time had passed in the book so it didn’t feel so rushed.

It felt like after the first sex scene the author didn’t have anywhere else to go so there was just more sex and innuendos. I also didn’t love that everyone who wasn’t Mariel’s family members were constantly telling her to stand up for herself. It felt monotonous.

Satisfying ending though.

What a delightful read! Engaging plot, lovable characters with realistic arcs, cozy setting and world-building, funny banter, and overall just really fun and enjoyable! So glad I took my friend up on the rec, it was 100% worth the full price on Kindle.

I don't know what expectations I had for this book, but at the very least a plot would have been nice.

A contemporary fantasy romance with modern day references and technology about a witch and a demon who both have emotions and are confused by them the entire book.

It was kind of,,,,juvenile writing for a lot of it. Considering that there are some spicy scenes and references to sex, the very young writing feels like something straight out of a teen's Wattpad phase.

I enjoyed the first half of the book, but the second half felt rushed and not well planned. There were many interesting themes that I think should have been explored more than the love between the two main characters. Sometimes it felt like the author could not decide whether she wanted to write a pure love story or if she wanted to put a lot more focus on other parts of the plot. I also wish that the author would have written the relationships between the fmc (female main character) and her family in a different way. Especially with how it turned out in the end of the book. 

This book was not for me but if you are looking for a cute, and sometimes spicy, fake dating story then this might be for you!
