While I really enjoyed this book and am looking forward to the next I hope that is more on the backstories. The books feel a little like I started them in the middle of the series instead of the beginning. But I’m definitely invested and want to see how it ends.

I’m not surprised that she was the daughter of some big dude in hell but I think it’s interesting how everything is kind of changing and they’re all like meshing  together whatever. Let’s see what happens next.

I absolutely love the tone of this author's voice. I was literally laughing out loud at a few turns of phrase in use. In particular the one with Syko in the classroom when the prom was being initially discussed.
This book was also astonishingly more sexually active, almost to an uncomfortable degree if you, like me, don't actually feel the need to read every detail. But those who do want that, you will love this. And for me it wasn't enough to put me off, but it might be to you. If the first book went from zero to sixty with the sexual activity to you, this one takes it to 120 in the same way. If the next one goes to 180 as quickly I might need help. But it'll be completely worth it.
There were a few blips on the road to filling out the plot, some things were glossed over that could have used a tiny bit more attention. This was in no way a perfect book. But I honestly don't care because I absolutely LOVE it. She promises the next two volumes in a rather short time frame, and I truly hope that happens as promised. It sounds, from her endnote, as if both of the next titles are actually already written and ready to go through the publishing machinery, so there is hope I won't have to wait too long. But if it takes time I can always re-read these two books to help tide me over, it won't be the same of course but I'll still be happy with that.

Hmmm

The story line is getting better. Still a confusing mess. Nothing has really been explained and it’s already book two.

I didn't like it as much as the first one. Nothing much seemed to happen in matter of the supernatural building, and their relationship seemed to move to a boyfriend status out of nowhere.
I'm like
What.

There doesn't appear to be a plot and the development of the relationships is all over the place with all of them basically in insta love with Izzy already. That being said it's still not the worst reverse harem I've ever read and I might still read the next one so I'll be generous and rate it three stars.

Summary: Izzy and the guys try to work on getting her Prod out and Izzy basically secures the rest of the guys into her harem.

I’m being super generous with 2 stars...especially when I skimmed the majority of the book. Everything in this book is so stupid. The characters, the dialogue, the sex scenes. All. Stupid. Was this book written by a 14 yo girl? I only read it to figure out what kind of supernatural she was and it really didn’t answer that. I’m not sure why I keep reading this crap when I know it’s crap. Oh well. I’ll probably read book 3 when it comes out if only to get the whole story...as stupid as it may be.
