graventy 's review for:

Elements of Mischief by C.M. Stunich, Tate James
1.0

A miserable experience.

So many bad plumbing puns! SOOOO much dubious consent, or, uninformed consent? What do you call it when men say "oh no we don't need condoms" and then later they say "oh yeah now that we had unprotected sex you're an elemental". Rape? I think that's rape.

And it continually happens. The heroine keeps getting put into situations where she is told minimal details and then agrees and then told afterwards about the new pit she has fallen into.

Oops! You accidentally saw a supernatural creature and are now in danger.
Oops! You had unprotected sex and now you're a supernatural creature.
Oops! The ritual we need to do to protect you also makes you our wife.
Oops! Being our wife is actually just as dangerous as not.

Some of this could be forgiven if the sex scenes were hot but they just aren't. No buildup or anticipation, FAR too many plumbing puns and bad jokes.

Bleh.
