I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS! This book is completely unhinged! A Basilisk snake shifter gives spicy seduction lessons to a naive farm girl who is in a competition for the hand of the prince as part of a centuries old truce between the humans and the basilisks. Things of course get complicated, emotions run a muck, long buried secrets come to light, spicy rituals take place, families are reunited and torn apart. This book has it all.
Forget slow burn! This is a super spicy fast burn that heats up in the first few chapters and doesn’t quit. And unlike a lot of fast burns the plot does not take a back seat! Both plot and spice are intertwined and front and center! It will leave you screaming and begging for more! I immediately pre-ordered book 2 the second I finished this.
One of my favorite spicy fantasy books of all time!

I know this is a super popular book, but honestly? I found it kind of ridiculous. The spice was spicy, but some of the writing had me stopping mid-page like… what did I just read? At one point a MMC’s penis was described as “proud and regal”, I’m sorry, what does that even mean? Tem went from zero experience to full-blown sex goddess in record time, no fumbling, no hesitation, just expert-level everything. And don’t even get me started on having to “kiss the clit” as a sign of respect. I passed away. 💀
That said, I buddy-read this with friends, and that definitely made the journey a lot more enjoyable. The group chat reactions probably entertained me more than the book itself.

Well.. that was WILD lol
If you’re looking for 500+ pages of pure fantasy smut, this is it lol.
I think if it wasn’t so long, I would have enjoyed it more. But it was just too much smut where I eventually got bored and would fall asleep. 😬 I honestly liked the plot, and if we had cut down maybe 200 pages of spice, it would have still been wild, smutty, and memorable, but not as repetitive and drawn out?
I also didn’t really care for our fmc. Tem’s character was chaotic. It seemed like the author couldn’t decide if she wanted her to be timid or bitchy. There wasn’t a gradual shift in confidence. It was just constantly back and forth which made it jarring and annoying. Either way, the immaturity and the insecurity made her incredibly weak.
Most of the first half of the book is childish, and the dialogue is juvenile which made the constant smut just uncomfortable.
She’s so arrogant but then completely insecure and jealous the next moment. She would literally go from *woe is me* but then is so insensitive about other people’s feelings.Shes so rude to the prince claiming he has everything while she has nothing when he’s telling her he’s unhappy.
Now that I think of it, I think most of my beef with this book was Tem 😂 meanwhile, Leo was my fav!
Anyway- definitely a wild ride, would recommend if you’re looking for a super spicy *wtf* read lol.
