Overall really enjoyed this and the set up for future books at the end, loved the story and characters, but the series is starting to feel a bit formulaic to me. Anyways, still want to read the next one!

I utterly enjoyed reading this book! 
First of all: the representation was soo good! I never read a book that had a character use they/them pronouns. I loved it. 
The three main characters had a great dynamic and I loved them together as well as everyone on their own. 
The plot would have still worked without spice (which I prefer) but the spice was of course a great bonus!
Don´t even get me started on the spice.. it was +chefs kiss+ 5 stars. Really well written. 
Overall I enjoyed the plot as well as the spicy scenes a lot and would definitely recommend the book to every spicy romance reader!

Undoing my formal education with smutty mythology retellings pt 3: Wicked Beauty.

I worried at one point that my kindle would melt - this book is BEYOND HOT. 🥵🥵🥵

It’s basically American Ninja Warrior + political maneuvering + the hottest, swooniest throuple EVER. 

Helen considered her choice between a stern brunch daddy or cinnamon roll and said: WHY NOT BOTH?!

Since it’s #PrideMonth, here’s a little run down of all of the LGBTQIA+ rep: bi/pan MCs, a full-on poly relationship, lots of LGBTQIA+ side characters.

As usual, Katee gave us scorching hot 🌶🌶🌶 scenes but also amazing consent conversations AND incredible communication between the characters. Beyond navigating their throuplehood, the three MCs in this novel wrestle with ambition, love, jealousy, angst, intense pining, complex family relationships and toxic exes. AND WE GET A TRIPLE POV. 🫠🫠🫠

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Three thumbs up, get it? Three thumbs up - GET IT! Highly recommended. This may be the hottest book you read this year. If you liked Neon Gods and Electric Idol, you will like this, but you could read it as a standalone if you wanted.
